I enjoy looking at "abstract" images, and there are a number of fine
ones in the March PUG. Two of them mystify me, and I would like a
little more information on what they show and how the images were made.
"Fontene by Toralf": I love the graininess of the image, and the
light. Are those reflections in the a shiny pendulum or other object,
or is the camera looking through an opening into a mich brighte area?
Inquiring minds would like to know. In any event, it is an
interesting and effective photograph.
Thanks. When I processed the image, I was sort of undecided about
whether I should keep the grain (the picture is a scan from rather
grainy b&w film), or attempt to smooth it out. I'm glad to hear that
someone likes it the variant I eventually landed on!
The picture is actually a close-up of a small fountain featuring a block
of dark-coloured rock - granite, perhaps - with a circular opening
carved through it, and a vertical slit which the jet of water is pointed
at. So you're looking trough a large "keyhole" and a spray of water at
the same time, so as to speak.
