Bog Standard

[Tom Dunne]

Rob, are you awake? This is from the inside of an old bog machine with another wreck visible through the window.
Between us we have to keep the forum alive today.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Yes, it's OK if you like that kind of thing, I suppose. Luckily I do!

I don't know why I like this, but I do. Earthy, certainly, real-world grit, it is an intriguing shot. I can see it in a folk museum, maybe.

I like it too. The windows could use a clean but other than that it looks delightful.

 

[Paul Lange]

Mucky! but a super image all the same. There is something pleasing to the eye about the two standpipes and the cranes through the window.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Deeply dirty! It looks like it was dredged from the mud! Interesting photo...I like it.

 

[Tom Dunne]

Thank you all lads. Hasn't time to clean the windows.

 

[Martin Pancisin]

Very interesting Tom, those two knobs are trying to tell me something. The reflection/projection effects is quite surreal.
Did you process it in caffenol?

 

[Tom Dunne]

Vary many thanks Martin and I'm glad you like this image and for the same reasons as I like it too.
This was digital Martin but I agree, it has that caffenol look to it.

Wonderful stuff Tom. The choice of toning is perfect for the textures I think and the frame within the frame works perfectly.
