Life And Death In Princes Street, Edinburgh

As shoppers passed by, and office workers ate their lunch in the gardens...

That first one is a stoater, Rob!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

That'll do, Brian.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

That first one is exceptional...which is what I think Brian said.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

More or less

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Yes the first one is a what Brian, well it is very well done and stands out.

A stoater

 

[Tom Dunne]

The first one is different, delicate and lovely but is closely followed by the third shot which is beautifully photographed and has lovely tonal contrast.. The last shot (Death?) is possibly the least interesting of a great batch.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, @Tom Dunne Glad you like the third. Yes, the fourth is the death part.

Have you find time to complete your mother's (or grandmother's?) bed shots project?

 

[Chris Dodkin]

WTF is a stoater?

Rob - you should be selling images like #1 (and #3) on art postcards, or at least to a stock agency - fabulous

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Thanks, Chris. There's a thought...

Thanks for asking @Rob MacKilop.
I put a lot of work into an Audi Visual for this Rob and I have never been happy with the result. I know exactly how I want it to look and sound but have not managed to get music and images to merge into one if you get my drift. Then stressful house selling stuff got in the way and now my Mac and drives with all the images are sitting in storage in Ireland.
I will be coming back to this when we are settled again but will take my time with it until I feel it is exactly right and gives me a few goosbumps when completed. It is now possible that we will be in the house in Wexford by the end of the month.

btw Rob. It was a found room while on holidays in Portugal but it sent the imagination racing and brought back some very sad memories.

Smudgy tones again. Gorgeous.

A different kind of smudge here. There's more to a smudging than meets the eye...
