RE: GESO - Call Any Vegetable
You've made me hungry. And it is past my regular eating time. Damn you ;-) You had me going for a while with the title. I figured it out at last. I saw a documentary about him about a month ago. An interesting program. Tim Mostly harmless (just plain Norwegian) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 4. februar 2007 17:21 To: pdml@pdml.net Subject: GESO - Call Any Vegetable A small gallery, six pictures, from about a year ago at San Francisco's Farmers' Market. This is again from the series of what-I-have-printed-up-recently-and-put-on-my-wall(s). The chard started out as a much bigger horizontal. But to frame them and put them up I needed another vertical. So I zoomed in on it and cropped it. I now like the crop better. They are framed as 6x4s, three in a frame, with three horizontal, and three vertical. This was a camera club outing, a Reed's camera club. Now that the store went belly up a couple of months ago, the guy that started this club (and who also taught a lot of classes) is trying to keep it going. I haven't been since last year, but will this year. I found it fun; it has a lot fewer rules than more formal camera clubs. Nothing really exciting, but I have found I really enjoy looking at these pictures on my wall -- almost more than any other pictures I have up, which is sort of strange. Well, vegetables have primary colors and basic geometric shapes, so I suppose that makes them good graphics. Or it is the diet I am on. ;-) I wasn't trying too hard that day, but I think that only really shows in one of these photos. http://members.aol.com/eactivist/VEGETABLES/ Comments, welcome.
