These remind me of my experimentation of taking photos through the cellophane wrappers from a quality street chocolate. When using the purple wrapper it always provided an interesting photo.
It is a shame they have changed the wrappers and I am no longer able to experiment.
Which reminds me of when I was ill as a child and always peeling off and looking through the dark orange cellophane that the Lucozade bottles used to be wrapped in. My mother thought Lucozade was essential to treat anything (even to treat the fact that I wasn't really ill but was acting wonderfully to get a day off school - sorry Mum, only about 50% of my illnesses came under that category)
I like the sound of that, Claude. And to see an astonishing sky click on Shoshana above, go to her "Does it Really" blog and scroll down to the "Sky Watch" post.
Time admiring a river reflecting light at night is time well spent in my opinion James; but then I suppose I could've been at home at that time on Saturday evening watching The X-Factor... Nah... time well spent :) Plus taking my "Constitutional" 30 minutes of brisk walking (apart from when I stop walking to take a photo.
In both shots the light on the river made me think of crumpled cellophane wrapping paper. The season may have something to do with that...

ReplyDeleteThis looks very aileenish, and I like both images very much.
ReplyDeleteAileen works in mysterious ways Sean. Watch out for her.
ReplyDeleteI like these for their dark mystery.
