No, no, no. This is why I don't like digital photography and now mirrorless cameras. People just want easy. They don't want adventure or challenge or to think about anything or to learn or to experience or to be surprised. They just want the spoilers, the cheats, the instant results, the instant gratification. Welcome to 2021 not just with photography but with everything!
I don't claim to be an artist. I personally dislike art but art does not need explanation. People will argue if the viewer can make no sense of the piece they are viewing the artwork has failed. It's a good argument imo and this image may very well be a complete and total failure. I'm fine with that. I didn't feel it was appropriate to post an image that was created in a completely different era for viewers to understand today. I didn't want to post it but people complained so here it is. I'm fine with it not being understood. I'm fine with people taking a look and thinking, "Makes no sense to me, waste of time being here, next thread..."
I won't explain it but I'll give further clues. If you don't want to give it any thought, close the thread. It's what we all do with images we do not like or wish to bother with.
Title is The Journey. It's a vision of mankind, past, present and future.
I ask:
Why is the image blue?
Why is the figure in a liquid substance?
Why does the liquid substance appear to have density?
Why are air bubbles in the image?
Why is the figure not upright?
Why is the figure distorted?
Why does the figure appear to not be totally human?
Why is the front of the figure not greatly illuminated?
Why are there small highlights on the front of the figure?
Why is there light coming from behind the figure?
Why does one hand have more definition than any other part of the figure?
Past, present, future.
Make of it what you will or move on. Don't take my comments in a nasty or negative fashion. It's not my intent. The image may not appeal or interest anyone. The image may only appeal for it's visual qualities, color or because it is a little different or odd. It's just like any other image in this forum. Like it or don't like it or place it somewhere in the middle.
As I said, please do not take my comments as being in any way aggressive.
No, no, no. This is why I don't like digital photo... (
