All kinds of everything! by jamibann

All kinds of everything!

A follow-up photo from yesterday's sculpture on the Buffalo Bayou in Houston. This is a close-up of the letters making up the sculpture.
Love the abstractedness of this shot. The shadows are fab. What a cool sculpture!!

What a fantastic shot, love the letters on letters, the patterns they make and the light. Well seen and captured.

I'm struggling with this one Issi. Remember please that I'm only a bloke, so I am finding this a bit too complex for my ageing brain cells. Perhaps if you were to emphasise just a letter or two I could cope! My problem, not yours of course.

Well, I'm an old bloke, and I love this one!

I like this one because there is a lot to discover. Very photogenic sculptures!

@nairda I hear what you're saying Adrian - I guess that's something I could try - I'm not a great editor of photos though, other than the occasional crop or frame. Partly because I'm not good at it, partly because it takes so much time and partly because I always feel it's somehow cheating - unless it's so obviously edited that it becomes art. I'm working on that though! Out of interest, what would you do to highlight some of the letters?

@frankhymus Thanks Frank!

Firstly Issi, you need an decent editor. If your budget can run to it get Lightroom 5 (Amazon has it at 127 dollars). It will do 95% of any photo editing and do it quickly. There is a learning curve obviously.
Secondly, as Frank highlights above, all our views are our personal opinions that hopefully help you along your photographic highway.
And lastly, the letters at the front of the image are slightly lighter than those at the back so you could modify the tone curve to bring them to prominence or even change their colour.

Intriguing capture. Lovely

@nairda Thanks Adrian. Once I get my kids back to Uni and I finish all my upcoming globetrotting, I may settle down a bit and try out some photo editing. I enjoy everyone's comments, as you say, it's a great learning process. :-)

Having looked at your fountain shots I moved on to the statue and am putting both your shots of that in my favorites. What great works of art, and wonderful photos you've made of them.

@mcsiegle Thank you Mary, you're very kind. I'm lucky enough to live in Houston at present, and although it's not a very beautiful city, it has lots of works of art scattered around town which make for great photo opportunities!
