Description I did this shot a couple of days ago, while I have been on a walk in the park...I did some quite heavy editing to it, to achieve a certain mood. however, I'm not absolutely sure if I even like it, so I might very well end up putting it in storage, we'll see.

well, hope you enjoy it, a new painting is going to come soon!

This is a fascinating shot. I can't quite tell which way is up or down, and the beautiful little girl's face adds a sort of eerie quality to the photo. I love it.

Gorgeous.. I really, really love this. The angle's amazing! I kind of wish the people in the background weren't there, so that the rings of the sidewalk would make it seem like she were on her own personal planet, but at the same time, I like seeing the people sideways. Either way, awesome work! <3

memod In reply to tainted-blush [2006-11-28 14:53:59 +0000 UTC]

Thanks a lot for your detailed comment! I'm really glad you like this so much

and yeah, I can see how you are unsure about the people. So am I, actually, but I kinda like this almost creepy sort of touch they give the whole image. I think

Thanks again, hope you have a great day

tainted-blush In reply to memod [2006-11-28 18:42:13 +0000 UTC]

Aww, 'course! You're very welcome; it's nice to hear back from people when you leave a comment, so thank you!

Mhm.. I think you nailed what I was too ineloquent to pin down. The people in the background do kind of creep me out. But I think I kinda like the creepy, as odd as that sounds? I would probably have been to bring the white-coated person down to the same tone as the background, just so they stand out less... It feels sorta distracting to me right now...?

Wow, I had some major gramatically errors there... Oops. Anyways. I dunno, the suggestion might be useless, but I hope it wasn't, hehe.

Nice job

SirGrunt [2006-04-27 17:01:33 +0000 UTC]

Kind of sweet, endearing and disorienting all at the same time. Very nicely developed too, I love all the detail in the sand. Es ist ein shoenes komisches Bild.

Is there a little color in it or is it all black and white. (Damn this LCD Laptop screen!)

memod In reply to SirGrunt [2006-04-27 17:20:27 +0000 UTC]

uhm, there is a fair amount of colour in it it's not a black white

janey-in-a-bottle [2006-04-27 10:17:12 +0000 UTC]

You should keep it in your gallery! If it was just a little less dark it could be one of those old photographs (that's what the hue is hinting).
I like brown hues with photos and I also like how you rotated the picture that the girl is upright again. That's very dynamic and I feel as if I was on th swing with her.

thank you much for your nice comments yeah, it seems like people liked it better than I thought it's not intended to have an old look though I rather wanted to create a strange mood, and I think those colours match this well

thank you!!
