A quick shot of color
It's another wintry afternoon among many wintry afternoons here in London. Lake-effect snow flurries are rolling off of Lake Huron and finding their way into the city. I'm sitting at the computer thinking of something - anything - to write, and all I can see as I look out the window is endless glum.

Sunflowers? If I am correct thanks for the smile Carmi... I long for the warm days of summer.
ReplyDeleteWow, if I was really, really mean, I'd tell you that we already have flowers that nice out here in sunny Vancouver...
ReplyDeleteAnd what a lovely, mellow color it is. It oozes warmth. Thanks, Carmi.
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of a water slide - fun!
ReplyDeleteIt must be a sunflower! It makes me think of summer on my grandparent's farm when I was a kid. Yellow is my favorite color. Thanks, Carmi!
ReplyDeleteHow pretty!
ReplyDeleteHello, Michele sent me!
Very pretty :)
ReplyDeleteoh and btw
Hello, Michele sent me!
Hi Carmi, I love your pictures. (incl. the lights)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I tried to post a comment on the previous post a day ago but couldn't.
ReplyDeletethis reminds me of an obscuted photo i once of boiled peanuts... equally beautiful.
ReplyDeletelooks vaguely like flower petals to me...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful doesn't seem to cover it.
ReplyDeleteI love the color and the movement. It reminds me of a hypnotic, undersea creature.
ReplyDeleteNot only is the color wonderful but it has a great feeling of texture that you don't always see in flower photos. Warm and velvety but smooth. Nice.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first photo I'm seeing on your site, b/c I'm a new visitor. Yes, it works!The photo evokes a sensual warm feel to it. I have a very active imagination so I'm not going to guess *all* the things this photo could "really" be. That's not the point anyway of certain photos. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the flow of the curvy lines. The black in the upper right corner (and even the small bit of black in the lower left) serve as a contrast to bring the viewer's eye back into and over the lovely lines and forms of your piece.
I touched on this above, but to be clearer, I enjoy the mysterious, somewhat abstract quality of the piece. (Yellow is not one of my favorite colours, but I'm drawn to the photo.) *very nice! :)
