of paper that is. This is the second picture of a sheet of paper I did a couple of days ago called "Edge of Light". In the other one the paper was quite obscure. Haven't decided witch one might draw more attention to a judge. I might decide to enter it in a local photo contest in the spring.

Graceful, flowing lines! Simplicity for sure. I really like your creativity and the execution of this shot.

I'm happy to see you liking this style of photo Carol.👍

It works very well for me.

I am loving this piece of art, Jim-pops. I love the flowing, graceful lines and the simplicity of the image. Because I had not seen Edge of LIght, I checked it out too. I think I am partial to this image (Clean Sheet) maybe because I saw it first but I think its more contrasty. I'd like to know how you set up and did this. Well done!

Terrific image Jim. Simplicity is paramount for this sort of work and the contrast/lighting/form, work superbly here. Being the picky bugger I am, I wonder how a very slightly off-centre image might work just to provoke the mind a little further. Either way, wonderful shot mate

Thank You Richard👍

Thanks Carlysue, I can't tell witch one I like. Both have a different look and working relationship with the light. I will PM you with the set up. Jim

Very sultry and easy to follow the graceful lines. Thank you for sharing. I really like it.

Startlingly unique and well done. Certainly eye catching. I'm just wondering how you were able to get the paper into this shape.

Hi, Jim,
You are, indeed, on to something most promising with these gently curved figurative “tone poems”.
Given the two you’ve posted, I like them both, but am partial to the first...mainly for its more firmly implied mystery of what it is.

I’m glad you are doing this....very enjoyable!

Thanks so much Dave. I think I will enter one of them in a photography show in the spring. Keep going back and forth on what one to enter.
