The other day I posted the first part of the photo exhibition I visited this week. The title of the exhibition was The Woman, The Eternal Mystery and not without a reason. Ladies are the main focus of the exhibition and a lot of angle is covered in this regard. And yes, some say women are eternal mystery. Is it? Who knows :)
Lady In The Night
This was a very interesting composition. Pairing the wolves in the night with the lady with a mask is something I would have never thought of. It's not really what I would be looking for, but it's interesting.
Zig-Zag In Nature
This was a cheeky, but good one.
Adele In The Tunnel
There's something with naked ladies posing in rough places as the concept has always been popular. This was a dark tunnel, with no light at the other end. I don't know where the photo was taken, but I'd gladly take a look at it in real life. Based on the narrowness of the space, I suppose it's manipulation, but maybe I'm wrong.
Sigma Upside Down
A very well known pose, I suppose you can call it classic in photography, when it comes to nudes, yet, there's always a way to make it interesting. Unfortunately the reflections take away from the value of it a lot.
The photo on the right was a very good one, but unfortunately the individual photo I took at the gallery is terrible due to reflections. It's about the same lady sitting in the tunnel, which is a manipulation of course.
Devotion In White
Another interesting setup. If have a good look, you can see that the light behind the lady is the inverse of the shape of her dress, or it's just me seeing that.
Sunbathing
As I mentioned, naked ladies and rough places. However, that red scarf (or whatever it is) is breaking the color balance nicely.
At The River Bank, Alone
The same lady as the one above, but in a slightly different position this time and wrapped in the red scarf, which adds some mystery to the nude.
Relaxing At The Waterfall
I'll let this for you to decide, if it's manipulation or not.
On The Stage Of Life
Looking at this photo at home made me smile. Why? Because of he whole setup, title and meaning. A similar effect was used here as in case of Devotion In White, but with less light this time. What made me smile is the title and the reflection of my silhouette on the photo. Well, life is like that, someone or something always comes in and ruin your plans. In this case I came in and ruined the photo with my silhouette, but if I want to be honest, it was the shiny surface of the paper.
The Eruption of Love
Galactic Beauty
Lady With A Red Hat
Yin Yang
Over the years I've seen quite a few ideas and interpretation of the yin yang in art, photography as well, but never like this. It's interesting to see it framed in a square, half black and half white.
Love Dream
This exhibition can be divided in two parts in my opinion. One was the photo manipulation, which you saw here and in my previous post and the other was the batch that is coming soon. I wanted to separate them as you can't mix the two styles, you'll see why.
Visiting the exhibition and posting about it too, gives me the opportunity to think about what I see, twice. At gallery you have the first impression, but looking at each photo, painting, or whatever is exhibited, gives you the chance to see it in a different light and I'm not saying this literally.
I think it's safe to say this type of photography is not my cup of tea. I have a huge admiration for those who have the knowledge to create such artistic photos because I don't. I had time to think if it motivates me to start learning and experimenting and the answer is no. Somehow I have no desire to pursue this path. Most likely at some point, when I'm going to have some free time to spend on exploring photo manipulation, I'm going to try out a few things, but I don't think it's going to grow on me.
