Re: OT: Urban photographer of the year

[knarf]

Hmm...

Not sure what to think. Some good shots in there. Some average shots. 
I find the watchmaker portrait difficult to look at. That rendering makes me 
cringe.

The de-icing in Calgary looks like they use flamethrowers to melt the ice. 

But I do like the phone cam shot of winter in Chicago. That's a wonderful shot. 

Thanks for posting!

Cheers,

frank

It began (in Canada) with his father in '68. It was called Trudeaumania. 

To matters even better, our new PM was born on - wait for it - December 25th.

"I'd be curious to know how they already knew the results before anyone

Two words: Time Zones.

Liberals pretty much swept the Atlantic provinces. By the time the polls closed 
in Eastern time zones (Ontario and Quebec) it was all over. The only thing to 
consider was whether Pierre Jr. was going to have his majority. Took about 
another hour to confirm that...

OT - Elections and Politics and Guns and Religion

[knarf]

Okay, now that I got your attention, it's really a post about elections. 

We in the Great White North just had one. It was the longest election campaign 
in our country's history: three months.

The news guys declared the winner about 6 minutes after the polls closed, and 
declared a majority government an hour after polls closed. 

Living in Canada has its advantages.

Re: published - one pic from the hood

"Chronically"?

Damned predictive spelling! 

How about "chronicle"?

Geez.

Now, this is interesting: After I typed "how about 'chronicle'?", I see the 
word "Geez" pop up. Didn't even have to hit the "G". It knows my speech 
patterns.

That's scary.

I took a time-trip wandering through the gallery that photo was in.

Holy crap, Ann, such outstanding stuff! Should be in a museum somewhere - what

PESO - Absorbed (reprise)

[knarf]

Here's a couple of old ones, so someone of you may have this vague feeling of 
deja vu:

Absorbed http://knarfinthecity.blogspot.com/2015/10/absorbed.html

The young lady on the steps was taken with the *is D and kit 18-55. The boy and 
dad with the late, lamented Leica CL with Summicron C f2.0 40mm. I miss that 
camera...

Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome.

Re: Slowing down & being creative

[knarf]

It was ~most~ interesting to me. I read the articles yesterday but had to leave 
a response until today. 

I have to admit that as wonderful as digital is, some of my best photos were 
taken on film loaded in my Spotmatics, LXen,  MX and Leica CL. Is that because 
I had to go slower, check (and be totally aware of) exposure settings and ISO 
(always 400 with TriX)? Is it perhaps because by being punctilious and 
methodical about exposure and focus, that carried over to composition as well?

Or maybe I'm just not the photographer I used to be. 

Whatever the case may be, Burnett's results are most impressive.

Thanks for posting. 

Cheers, 

frank

Re: Before Vivian Maier - early female photographers

[knarf]

Very cool! 

 But Margaret Bourke-White, "forgotten"? Geez,  that's a stretch. She had a 
stellar career and was one of the best known photographers of her time. 

Side note: Tina Modotti was a close friend of Frieda Kahlo and Diego Riviera. 
I'll have to check, but I'm pretty sure she had an affair with one (or possibly 
both) of them. Her character was in the movie Frieda, played by Ashley Judd.

Thanks for sharing the article.

Well, flying potatoes, anyway. They certainly look more graceful in the second

Re: PESO - Drafting Swans

[knarf]

I think that's a good way to put it! 

And (non-sequitor alert here) I'm kind of freaking out with my new phone's 
predictive typing. It's not just telling me how to spell and finish words that 
I'm in the midst of typing, it's predicting my next word. Like as I finish 
typing "kind" and it gives me "of" before I've even hit the "o". Wow. A bit 
science fiction-y but wow.

Anyway, thanks for the comment,  Ken. Much appreciated. 

Cheers,

frank

Re: PESO - Drafting Swans

What I think is freaking amazing is that these swans have winglets. I presume 
they've had winglets for millions of years. It's only been about a decade since 
we've been putting them on airplane wings:

Thanks, Ken. Taken with and processed on phone cam. I have no idea how accurate

Re: Peso - another flower for testing :-)

[knarf]

I love it! The light and shadow, the texture on the wall, the perfect placement 
of the flowers. It is too bad the left flower isn't sharper. Oh well. Not 
perfect but still beautiful. 

Cheers,

frank

Re: PESO - Southeast Wind

I was standing in a safe, mostly dry place. I worry most taking photos of the

water I think hypothermia would soon follow.

I appreciate the comment. Thanks!

OT - PESO - and and explanation

[knarf]

Here's a PESO I sent last week:

http://knarfdummyblog.blogspot.ca/2015/10/shades-of-autumnal-splendor.html?m=1

No one saw it because it was sent from my new phone. I set up K9 but didn't set 
it to plain text. So I've been responding and commenting to every PESO, from 
Ken's ice to Bob's French weekend to Marco's soft box to Jack's autumnal scene 
and wondering why every other commenter was thanked but me. LOL.

So I'll go back and comment later. But I will post this photo taken at 
Etobicoke Creek earlier in the week. The leaves are beautiful this Thanksgiving 
long weekend - just that nice mix of bright colours with green.

Hope this is seen this time and hope you enjoy. Comment if you will.

Cheers,

Re: And now... a fake moon photo

[Knarf]

Well, here's what I think about Rhine II: I don't know.

I've never really seen it. I've seen representations and scaled down copies of 
it but before I can really comment I'd have to personally experience one of the 
six existing copies of it and spend some time with with same. After all isn't 
it's scale part of tbe message?

That being said, I think part of what many see as problematic with it is summed 
up thusly: "I coulda takin' the same thing with m' iPhone when me 'n Mabel wint 
ta Europe there, las' summer!"

But of course Jeb didn't and if he did, it surely isn't hanging up in the Tate 
Modern just now, so there must be something special about Gursky's piece.

I like the proportions, the colours and what it says, the fact that the Rhine, 
or at least portions of it and other industrial "working" rivers, are about as 
far-removed from Nature as an Interstate Highway or the Autobahn.

I have a problem with its value, to be sure, but that has more to do with the 
fine art industry than whether it's a good or great photo. Its value (or more 
precisely, its price) make it a pretty juicy target for reactionary "critics" 
in the right wing tabloids and make it hard for anyone to be objective...

I've said too much already. So I'll stop. But I'm with you, Ann! 

Cheers,

frank

Re: And now... a fake moon photo

[Knarf]

To be fair, I don't think Gursky ever said Rhine II "represents reality":

"I wasn’t interested in an unusual, possibly picturesque view of the Rhine, but 
in the most contemporary possible view of it. Paradoxically, this view of the 
Rhine cannot be obtained in situ; a fictitious construction was required to 
provide an accurate image of a modern river."

Few people realize that cormorants are hatched fully grown, ready to dive, fly 
and look pretty. 

It does make egg laying rather arduous, however.

Re: PESO -- Cloudy Moon (was) Re: Total Lunar Eclipse

[Knarf]

I walked along the lake for about a 1/2 hour, hoping the light clouds would 
lift, but they didn't. Gave up, went home. About midnight I brought the garbage 
out and there it was: about 1/4 obscured by the earth's shadow.

Quite spectacular!

Like Ann, I don't have the equipment to do anything about it, but at least I 
saw it. 'T'was pretty cool.

And earlier, after a significant dry spell, I got a few okay street shots 
today. Can't wait to look at them on a big monitor and process a few...

Re: Total Lunar Eclipse

[Knarf]

The moon just disappeared behind a thin layer of clouds here. One can still see 
moonlight peeking through the clouds, but no moon.

Hope that situation changes...

Re: PESO - A Flower.

The tie in with Bikini Kill's ~Rebel Girl~, of course, is that Robeson was a 
well-known communist, blacklisted by the FBI during the McCarthy red-scare era.

One of the best voices ever...

Re: Total Lunar Eclipse

Looks like it might get a bit hazy but the moon's still low in the sky and 
clearly seen.  I think I missed a nice moonrise over the Lake.

Maybe I'll wander down and see what's what...

Re: PESO - A Flower.

[Knarf]

Bach's cello suites are among the most beautiful music ever written. Du Pré's 
BBC recording (when she was 17!) is sublime. 

Love Gould's two versions of the Goldberg Variation.

But sometimes I just want a bit of Bikini Kill.

Go figure...

Re: OT: Life imitates art

[Knarf]

Amazing.

Thanks for posting. 

On another, related note, I've always wondered Constable (or any master) would  
have been able to do with a camera. As a painter he has the huge advantage of 
being able to amalgamate various elements from numerous studies, or he could 
even just make stuff up (like that dramatic sky).

However I can't but imagine that he'd have been a magician with a camera; a 
great eye is a great eye...

Cheers,

frank

Re: OT: Photographers Pose With Their Most Popular Photos

Yeah, these are really interesting but it would have been nice to at least 
identify the photographers here. At least there's nothing on the mobile version 
on my android.

I recognize Leifer, McCurry, Ut, and that's it. I'd love to know who the others 
are.

That will be Canada after the October election if the socialist New Democratic 
Party are elected. They are currently running neck and neck with the Liberals 
and Conservatives. 

If the NDP win they are already preparing to call it the October Revolution.
