About
not too sure about this one. It is a good photo but i do not know if it fits with what i usually present here. beside, i have done a little work on few different programs to get this result,
i would aprichiate much any comments crituques or suggestions,
I like this unusual perspective in portraiture. It is creative and interesting BUT it is with care that we need to shoot up peoples noses As I say, I do like it with it's soft grainy delicate toning. Well done to you. I called you Mr Anonymous in my last comment.....my apologies as I see you are named Visar. All the best Visar......Ray
Oh, a great grandfather you had, Visar! Quite active kind of guy, ey??? ;-)
Well, even mystique is the result of such a constructed set of values and rules. Actually even more so. But I think I can see what you mean with that. Somehow it seems that the evolutionary steps also brought many new phantasms. So, on the one hand we got a bit more ability to overcome the situation of being always under the direct dictate of nature, and on the other hand we replaced the no more applying dictates of nature with other dictates of our own mind. The one emperor was replaced by the other, that is! ;-)
In other words: Same old sh*t like in the last few millions of years! ;-)
ah, Nick, thank you, thank you million times- when you mention the script i sent you, yes, its setting must be looking like this- away, off, freed of whatever actual conventional ambiance, beoynd the realm of reasonable mind- somewhat unearthly, a rather, new dimention- unknown! - For, unknown, unsettled, unstated is what i always aim- that's how do i escape the boredom, and reach for the mystique- and- what the hell do we all need this and that of million yrs constructed values of morals and other 'socialbubblogy'- you know ;)
oh, and Dali!!? hmm... my grandfather used to do beaching in Spain in the turn of last century! , who knows-- haha,
If there has been an image, that looks so definitely "out of phase", empty and at the same time full, and also of such a magnetically functioning fear to me, then this is it!
Completely strange angle of view, it's a familiar thing and yet so... brrrrrrr! The human faces projected to infinity, out of which they push me down and make me feeling the pressure under that mass! And the mass is not only produced by an authentic angle of view but also by the impossibility to characterize this one as a photo or some form of invading insanity! All the "imperfections" work hand in hand in order to press the spectator down to the depths of the own mental abyss.
The "clouds" on the cheek... leave them off? I do see a change by cloning them out, but it is a change that doesn't really take anything away from the "weight" of the image. The face would remain the same, more or less, and that angle would also remain. But the offer some correspondence to the right part, where the empty sky seems to be there just for being there!
Visar, my guy, did you ever examine your family tree? Any eventual relation to Dali????
Beyond any categorisation, a class of its own! And also, a good visualisation of your plot and the script you sent me!
It's been a while since I have viewed your work but this image caught my eye because of the tender momment and softness of it .... I guess the love it sends out would be the better way of explaining the feeling I get when viewing it - lovely portrait and effects - one of your finest IMHO - 7/7 M~
