Hi. Thanks for that. I'm not holding anything back, I am very busy with other things so I just don't have the time to go out and shoot. I will return though...., thanks again.

There's something in your works that I like very much, but I can't yet name it. They thrive on imagination and induce feeling instantly. Each one is special.

Interesting photos you have Joost.. for me.. the colours are a bit too 'sheer' and under saturated, I guess you don't manipulate your pictures in PS.. but the captures are excellent! Really.. I would collect most of them
What's the reason behind your non-titles? Do you hate figuring out labels for them or is the cause simply lazyness?

Hi Ida. Thank you for that comment. It was very pleasant to read it. It is true that I don't too saturated images. A matter of taste I guess. I don't know what you mean by 'sheer'.
I just don't like titles. I don't want to send a viewer in a certain direction. I hop this way you will only look at the image without the influence of a title.

Sheer like ' pure' or 'mere'? I don't like titles too and as such I'm getting more and more conscious about them.. that's why I asked. I agree, by putting a label on a picture you somewhat ' wrap' the image.. and this ' paper' certainly doesn't fit to everybody's conception. However, a well-chosen, apt title makes the viewer tune in a proper direction/feeling/mood/whatever. So.. I haven't really decided whether to love or hate titles yet.. trying to learn how to live with them. You've decided to live without them.. that is an option, you know.. I'm just not sure if it's the right way.
(Thanks for the watch btw)

It is also that I can't think of a title most of the time. My images are abstract and that makes it hard to come up with a title.

you're welcome
I actually had this idea of taking photos of different spots, dirty or old things, but the problem is that I don't have the talent and a good camera to do this. And I thought no one will appreciate it. But I see how popular you are, and that's great for you!
I'm happy I found you here on DA
ps. this may be the longest comment I've ever written since I joined DA
