Sometimes in an image the observer misses the emotion, feelings and the driving moment why the photographer went click! Many times a subtle moment of seeing from ones long gone past when the new scene re-calls the magical moment and admiration of anothers Seeing the moment. Your expllanation is quite logical and makes sense when explaned. Thank you most graciously. And quite correctly, a pure B&W subjective image after your explanation. Gracious! :-) cheers, ted ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lluis Ripoll" <lluisripollphotography at gmail.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Friday, May 09, 2014 12:13 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] El Raval, Sunset Hi Ted, mon ami The image I saw remembered me the images of the old italian movies from the 60?s, films from Antonioni, Fellini, De Sica ? showing large spaces on the suburbs at the evening, everything looking grey with lower contrasts telling me a great impression of loneliness, the view had a point of attraction for me, the girl alone in the middle of a big space. On the other hand the view was on my eyes plane, what for me added a plus on vision of the perspective. Well? taking images is also, always subjective, maybe I see an story and I didn?t found the correct way to communicate it. Thank you dear friend for your observation, but what is decisive for me is that I would never posted the image in color, yes there are nice, but the question for me is if we shot the nice things to made a nice image with these pre-maded things or we try to create beauty from an abstract reality?.
