Gray and black can never be boring in this picture!

The window in the back is so light like the one that escaped from this room went out from there! Escaped for something better, not isolated in that narrow room...

Polu kalh douleia! Bravo!

Love the textures on this one, and I think the b&w suits it. Is it a bit moved however? It gives me the feeling of not full focus, mostly on the chair's legs.

Esceden In reply to dancingelf [2007-08-22 14:43:59 +0000 UTC]

I am not sure about the depth of field.. The lighting conditions were a bit extreme, so I wasn't able to fully control the parameters. Thank you for your kind comment!

Thank you very much Billy! I am thoroughly enjoying using film and my 30 years old equipment.. I love the impatience following every frame, the anxiety if the metering is good, the self control following every click. You only have 36 stances, after all...

It's like a new toy. A toy that helps me control myself and look more carefully.

I like it. I can't believe it's been that long since the original Absence photo, it feels like the other day I was commenting on the triangulation of the subjects of the first one.

Esceden In reply to Nyasa [2007-08-11 22:46:10 +0000 UTC]

Time flyes, huh? It's a Vaya con Dios' song too! Whose videoclip "Puerto Rico" is actually shot in my hometown, Pireaus. How odd is that?
*randomness off*
It's been a while. And I am happy that time hasn't worn off my feelings on the original "Absence" piece..

Nyasa In reply to Esceden [2007-08-12 17:12:10 +0000 UTC]

They shot a song called Puerto Rico in Greece? Haha, that's odd. The pictures of Pireaus online look very nice, beautiful area. You're fortunate to have all that water nearby - it makes me feel really odd not to live next to the ocean.

Esceden In reply to Nyasa [2007-08-12 21:09:42 +0000 UTC]

I just can't imagine myself living in a house, where my balcony doesnt have a view over the sea.. I have a really special relationship with water. Do you know the ancient Greek word "katharsis"? That's exactly how I feel.

Nyasa In reply to Esceden [2007-08-12 21:19:25 +0000 UTC]

It's one of my favourite words yes. Do you know the german word verstehen? It means I totally am empathetic in understanding what you're saying.

Definitely, it's quite different sounding, The exact opposite of Latin in the way it sounds
