Looking at the photos I took at the last photo exhibition made me think of how I have neglected photography. Don't get me wrong, I still take photos, but mostly at exhibitions and not purely for the sake of artistic photography as the conditions at the exhibition are what they are. You have to work magic to be able to take some half decent shots and the angles most of the times are limited. You do what you can, to capture the photos or the artworks displayed, in order to have them forever. If I can't have the original, at least to have the photos of them.
Granny's Bus
I looked at this photo and the attic scene brought back a lot of memories. Most likely I'm not the only one who's grandparents' attic had a lot of similar treasures. I've never seen such a pram in real life, just in the movies as it must be really old, but I'd love to see one for sure. Vine jar, spinner and other treasures you can find in these attics, all excellent for a monochrome, or sepia photo. Those old habits of storing everything you don't need in the attic now pay off as photos like this are real treasures. I used to go up to the attic of my grandmother, but mostly to capture the beam of light and the dust the beam of light can accentuate so nicely. Time has stopped at the attic for sure and this photo reminded me of what I should do next time I'm there.
Sheep Also Like Peaceful Grazing
At first glance I didn't even realize what I was looking at. All I saw was the nice brown color of the pasture and the line in the middle, then I saw the herd. How lucky you should be to capture such a scene.
Still Life With a Lion
Only The Prayer Keeps The Soul In Her
For me, this photo is the cherry on the cake. When I saw it, was thinking, you need some skills and some luck as well, to capture such a scene. I don't have the skill needed here, or the knowledge to be more precise and can only hope I'm going to have it one day. Choosing black and white here was a smart decision.
Lines
I was looking at this photo and looked familiar to me. It seemed like I've seen it before, but wasn't sure. I think I've seen a color photo, but I don't know if it was this, or a different one. Regardless, the shot is excellent. I haven't seen such a land so far, or I haven't payed attention, but will in the future.
Raining Heavily
You need a few things in order to take such a photo, like a boar running, rain and a good spot where you can capture such a photo without being seen by the boar. Personally I don' think I'll have the chance, because I'm kind of afraid of them, they could be dangerous. This is why I appreciate photos like this, because it's not easy to capture them.
Bumps
This is a man and nature created scene. I love the photo, it's very unusual, which makes it more valuable in my eyes.
Betting On Two Horses
These are photos with scenes you need to choreograph yourself, but you also need to see the opportunity and recognize the possibility as no one is going to do it for you. Talent, skill and opportunity are the main ingredients and not only.
I think you can learn a lot just by going to these exhibition and paying attention to the details.
