The Lampost by susale

The Lampost

This processing was something I just had to do and I don´t know why. I don´t even know do I like this outcome or not but I just have to post this cos this image reminds me of something, of a dream perhaps...feeling very weird about this.
Blue is not one of my favorite colors... Until I see a blue like this sky. I love the gradient properties of it! I like your well placed sillhouette of the lamp. This shot works for me! Nicely done!

Love the composition and silhouettes in this. That is funny...my sense is that this was taken very near your house...:) I like it.. the lighting on that house is incredible!

@smellychelli Thank you Michelle, the lamp and the gradient sky are the only things I´m sure I like about this pic, really not so sure about the rest. So glad this helped you to see the beauty of blue.

@nanderson Thank you Nancy, I don´t live near this but I have very strange feeling about this shot and place, like I should know this or something, so who knows maybe in another life I lived here...;-)

Love the blue graduations there and the lamp is perfectly placed. Great shot!

The images that evoke feelings and memories are always keepers... I really like this, the blue tones on the sky vs. on the wall are cool and of course the silhouettes are visually very strong statements. Yläkulman musta "loota" on aika massiivinen ja ilman muotoja, joten sitä vois ehkä hiukan keventää... croppaa puolet pois ylhäältä esim. ... no aika pilkunviilausta ja makuasiaakin tämä... hyvä kuva ja editti!

@sturnus Thank you Carol, I like that lamp how that lamp is situated too and those blue graduations are my favorite part.

@janim Kiitos Jani, vai ylhäältä pois, sitä mä en kokeillutkaan, alhaalta kokeilin ottaa pois, mut ei se toiminut, sit vaan siivosin sielt ne häiritsevät ylimääräsyydet pois kloonaamalla...testasin sun ehdotusta, toimii joo paremmin mut en tie, jotenkin sit taas kaipaan sitä tilaa ton lampunkin yläpuolelle... tarttis saada kummatkin. Tää on oikeesti aivan mielettömän vaikee kuva mulle, enkä mä oikeasti ymmärrä miten mä ees tein tän, se vaan tuli jostain, jotenkin tää tuntuu siltä, että tää ei olis ees mun kuva, ihan ku olisin plagioinut jonkun kuvan tietämättäni... en tie ymmärrätkö, kun mäkään en ees ymmärrä. Tykkään ja en tykkää...varmaan paras mennä nukkuun ja unohtaa koko kuva, kiva kuitenkin, että sä tykkäsit, musta on aina kiva miellyttää sua :)

@janim Niin siis valokuvauksellisessa mielessä tietenkin :)
July 10th, 2013  
Very effective. Nice shot.
July 10th, 2013  
@susale joo kyl mä tiedän ton tunteen (enkä puhu siis mun miellyttämisestä ;) ). Sun pitää ottaa tää kuva uusiksi, oikeen fiilistellä sitä sommittelua... ?

Nice composition and silhouette of the lamp post is great. I love dreams...wonder what it is...
July 10th, 2013  
Lovely simple image it evokes for me a sense of the opening sequence of a film perhaps, well done.
July 10th, 2013  
Very pretty. I like your composition and the lighting.

Ria
De ja vu, could be;) The sky is swirling into the future perhaps;))
July 11th, 2013  
Near your house in another lifetime then:)..haha!

This looks like a scene out of a movie -- maybe a gothic one or horror movie advertisement. Interesting composition.
July 11th, 2013  
It is funny how some things bring a hidden thought or memory to your mind or a hint of some evocative thing in your past. Fun for you to find this in your photo.
July 11th, 2013  
@bristolrose Thank you kathryn, it does have an effect, at least for me it does, very strange effect

@eyesmile Thank you Gena, oh so do I, dreams are doorways to unconscious mind and that "place" is full of secrets waiting to be descovered, I´m very intrigued by it and by dreams



@denidouble Thank you Deni, yes a movie, hmm could be, wonder if this reminds me of some movie then...

@kwind Thank you Kim, the light intrigues me very much for some reason

@eu4ria1 You always have the words Ria, dejavu of the dejavu perhaps, my mind is swirling into future by that sky....

@nanderson Yes, maybe who knows...or maybe in this life but in a different version of this, I used to have so many dejavu´s that I almost begin to believe I live this same life over and over again desperately trying to get it right, lol

@taffy Thank you Taffy, yes I see what you mean, it could be a gothic horror movie even, definitely!

@sansjuan Thank you Nita, it is, isin´t it. I´m so intrigued by it.
July 11th, 2013  
@janim Joo, tossa on ideaa, pitää mennä takas. Nyt kun mä tiedän mikä mua tässä häiritsee, niin ehkä mä löydän sellasen kuvakulman, jossa mä pääsen siitä eroon. Kiitos ehdotuksesta :)
July 11th, 2013  
Love the composition - great silhouettes
July 11th, 2013  
@zambianlass Thank you, I´m not so sure about the composition, there´s maybe something too much there...something bothers me in this, can´t quite figure it out.
July 11th, 2013  
Nice shot. Like the composition
July 11th, 2013  
@joyce2013 Thank you Joyce
July 11th, 2013  
This is insanely good---simply cool concept :)
July 11th, 2013  
This image sure has appeal, Susale ...
July 11th, 2013  
i like, nice work something about this fav
July 11th, 2013  
This almost looks like an abstract even though one can see what it actually is. I like the composition and the dark shapes against the sky.
July 12th, 2013  
@jodimuli Thank you Joey

@amrita21 Thank you Amrita, it has some appeal to me too

@hick Thank you Dave, I´m so happy you liked it

@tristansmum Thank you Stephanie for such elaborate comment, yes it´s a mix of abstract and concrete as well as shadows and light, very complex in a way.
July 12th, 2013  
One of the great things about 365 is seeing wonderful images from all over the world. This is intriguing!
July 12th, 2013

beautifully composed
July 12th, 2013  
@abhijit Thank you Abhijit, and thank you for visiting my project, very much appreciated
July 12th, 2013  
I love this picture :) The color of the sky and it almost feels like the house couldn't decide if it wanted to be b&w or colored.. fav :)
July 12th, 2013  
@coffeemonster Thank you Mathilda, that´s really insightful, that one colourful house among the silhouettes bothered me but at the same time it itrigued me. Really appreciate the fav and your visit at my project.
July 12th, 2013  
This lokscool, it is just as it have to tell a story
July 12th, 2013  
Oh, instant fav Susale! And the best is - I have no idea why - I just love it. lol! It's probably the composition, with several elements and interesting crop... or the lovely toning... or that wonderful building in the back... well, I love it!
July 12th, 2013  
@tstb Thank you Tineke, yes a story is to be told here

@lunaksi Thank you Lunaksi, I completely undestand you, I have no idea why I like or hate this pic, this is the strangest pic there is! Thank you, appreciate the fav!
