Thank you so much Pat, I could not have hoped for a better critique than the one that you have given, nor could I have commented on the image so eloquently. You have made my day!

My fork is being requested by lots of groups at the moment and obviously I accept every request, I suspect this may be something to do with you Pat? If so, thank you again for what you have done, and are still doing for me.

Thanks very much. How did I take it and of what? It's a photo of a fork, taken head on and close up with a macro lens attachment.

Very, very cool! From the thumb I thought the tines had been curled but the reality is far more impressive Mark. Awesome shot!

Thank you very much May! It was in colour when I took it originally, but it didn't quite work, but changing it to black and white seemed to make quite a difference.

I trust your opinion Just proves that the simplest everyday items *can* become works of art.

Yes, you are right I was just meaning the simplicity of it and the fewer 'ingredients' the better. Sorry to be off at a tangent there - I do it to hubby all the time and get in trouble for it

This photograph is wonderfully abstract. Even with the name giving it away it's almost hard to tell what it is. I am impressed!

Faved...

Strange this may sound...
But it is the subtle unsymmetrics...
of the points...
that makes the loudest sound...!

The symmetri of the black body with 4 legs...
wants to bee in control standing/marching 4/4 high in top of picture...
takes a great risk...and loses...
the four points sligtly rearange their relationship...
creating undulating tones...phaseshifting...slow vibrations...
like the real beginnings inside a Raga...
Greetings Jakob.

Thanks for faving Jakob, and thanks also for such a comprehensive and in-depth comment. No, I don't think your view is strange,

When we look at an image we all see different things, and you have obviously seen something quite deep in this image, and I can also see the things that you mention now. When I took the shot, all I could see was the penetration of space by the 4 points of the fork, like lances piercing fog, or 4 sharp objects protruding from the surface of a lake. But yes, the "out of alignment" of the tines does add an extra dimension.

Thanks again

Hello...
First thing I saw was four space shuttles...
breaking free of the cloudy mist...up...up...
from a dark landing strip beneath...
frozen in the moment the picture was taken...
Like bullets in a matrix movie...
but...
then the sound and rythm of the four points took over...
I still hear electronic humming music...
Greetings Jakob.
