Jim and RG said a lot of value and said it well. I’ll be curious which you settle on… a higher perspective or the chain saw!
Dave
A terrific series! Erich.
…and I keep coming back to #3, a real “keeper/hanger”!!!
I’ve been “down the shore” a few time during winter, but never saw it like this!
Thanks much for posting!
Dave
Thanks for the expl.
That’s def. more creative input than I had assumed!
Dave
I love the colors, but the abstract pre-packaged effect (like so many other pre-packaged “effects”) is not a positive contributor to my appreciation of the image.
Best regards,
Dave
Just white stuff stuck onto dark stuff… but stuck with such meticulous and masterful virtuosity as to be a jewel to be marveled, but only in its unpredictable allotted time. That it’s effect can be held in memory is a gift of infinite grace.

Rathyatra,
What a beautiful environmental portrait and pose!
Such are the fruits to be enjoyed by the prepared and skilled photographer!
I do envy you that image!
Dave
As an avid young photographer who was turning teen in 1952 in the panhandle of Connecticut (20 miles from Times Square) the name and fame of Gordon Parks were well known to me. Clearly, a man of ironic status to young photographers such as I in the New York suburbs! When I was old enough to get a ticket to NYC on the NY,NH, And Hartford RR ( the “New Haven RR”) my first stop was 125th St. (the beating Heart of Harlem) where I would wander with my Exakta as a budding street photographer. I wish I could say I ran into Gordon Parks on one of those forays, but no such luck. He was, indeed, a role model for youth aspiring to make their way in photography!
Thanks for starting this thread!
Dave
“Like @ lot!”
…as well you should! It’s a knock out!

Dave, the two extremes of day and weather. I particularly like the snow scene. With is shadows and texture.
Thanks, Frank;
I think we are both somewhat partial to snow images an$ scenes.

This morning there was very little color or light at the beach. Most of the sky was overcast. I took a 30 second exposure of this jetty to make the surf flatten out and to eliminate the detail in the sky and ocean. So, the transition is just color, not any texture or waves. Then there is the mist that is left when the surf crashes against the rocks during a long exposure. I like the sharpness in the rocks and the few highlights visible in the rocks. Nikkor 180mm f/2.8d lens used.

A gripping image of “The Hard Edge of Forever”!

Great job, Jim!
Superbly accomplished!

If I like this photo. I was doing a series of tombstones, to be posted later today or tomorrow, and saw this bird on a tombstone. I took the shot but it was dark with no chance for another. After looking at it I decided to make it a black and white as that was pretty much what it was anyway. I sort of like the silhouette aspect of it. What do you think. I used my Sony RX10IV.
Dennis
I like it very much, Dennis!
The rear view of the almost silhouetted unaware subject is, to my eye, extremely effective!,
