Description Ever wonder why you decide to photograph a particular thing.

"A good photograph is knowing where to stand." Ansel Adams Don't know what comment to make about that in this case.

Ansel Adams would be proud ^_^ I think we just look for something that we find pleasing, or even intrigueing, and then try to capture it onto film. I like how the picture is stacked from bottom to top, very nice ^^

Ah... i thought the long shadow was actually a curvy road in the distance.. full view sure makes a difference. Great texture..

What I love about this shot is I feel like I am standing there with you. There is so much texture to the ground especially to the right of your shadow and then the awesome cure of the lamp post, very cool. I guess I don't worry too much about why I photograph things, I know it appealed to me at that moment and given a different frame of mind over time it may not appeal to me again but for its moment it had relevance. I don't think we ever see anything the same way twice, time and experiences aways change our views. So for this shot the photograph definately knew what she was doing and did it extremely well!! Nice shot

myrnajacobs In reply to shuk [2006-01-29 21:07:35 +0000 UTC]

I agree with you, that I don't really know why I photograph something. Usually it just catches my eye and I have to. I take so many pictures and few make it onto dA. Which is another interesting aspect. Sometimes I'll have an image for months or even years and then suddenly I love it and have to put it up when I've gone past it many times.

Thanks for the great comment.

Ansel would probably turn over in his grave i like where you stood.. its like you're the only one left after a nuclear war.. the place where you are looks to me like a crater..

i like this, the ground looks flat, yet the lamp's shadow curves wildly.
