An appropriate title for an atmospherically dense piece of work. Good stuff, without doubt.

when i saw this cloud coming upon the river, it reminds me the Tom York solo album cover and i decided immediatly at the title : the eraser because this cloud really scared me when everything became dark and cold around me : everything was so surreal, different in few seconds ...

thanks for your time and your appreciation, i feel glad about that

No worries. It's an impressive album and I do like the cover-art of it, and I can see how it relates to this piece.

J'aime bien celle-ci, notamment ton travail sur la texture et les couleurs... C'est quoi la recette ?...

edredon In reply to bwiti [2008-10-24 05:01:08 +0000 UTC]

merci , mais je vais te décevoir : il n'y a pas de recette . j'ai juste photographier ce nuage de brouillard avec un vieil appareil photo des années 50; les rayures, poussières et autres traces de doigts sont malheureusement vraies ( une petite fille a fait tomber le négatif pendant que je le contrôlais sans protection ). les couleurs sont proches de la réalité ( lever de soleil et brouillard ) un peu trop jaune peut-être ( surtout dans les bleus, mais c'est un choix que j'assume facilement ).

Perhaps it wasnt intentional but I like how you composed this with the horizon of the buildings kinda tilting to the left. It makes it look quite dramatic.

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

edredon In reply to vakceber [2008-10-01 07:59:09 +0000 UTC]

you are right it was't intentional at all ( and often i dislike when skyline isn't perfectly horizontal and when verticals lines are not vertical ) but this time i like the effect it gives too the picture: it's like if the cloud was so big and heavy that the world crashed.

but in fact i didn't get time for viewing properly into the viewfinder because the cloud came too speed

and many thanks for your visit and your comment

edredon In reply to SLPdomain [2008-09-27 08:38:48 +0000 UTC]

thank you Stefanie

it's a scan from the negative ( not a scan from a print )

it was a strange feeling to see this cloud and fog coming upon the town
i don't know how to say, how to explain but this place is very high in the town and there's maybe hundred meters between this place and the river...
excuse my french

Oui en effet et celui ci particulièrement é.pais ( la place Bellevue est un des points les plus hauts de Lyon ) et le brouillard ce jour là était vraiment dense à masquer complètement la ville en plus il est arrivé à toute vitesse comme un immense mur...

I like how you just tore the square of paper.

It really adds to the effect, whether for lack of scissors or planned.

edredon In reply to flytape8490 [2008-09-13 07:35:06 +0000 UTC]

thanks but it isn't paper : it's a scann from the negative. and what you like is the start of the roll ( and it's why i didn't crop it on this one for the moment, but i will edit this picture)

these pieces of roll inspire me a lot actually, and i am working on them for a new project but i am not sure to find the solution how to use them properly
