Gallery Picks forthe week ending November 25, 2019

[Mlehrman]

Gallery Picks is an opportunity for you to post a heads up to what you have seen during the past seven days at RFF that you like.

There's no membership requirement, no criteria (except past seven days), no voting, no limit to the number of photos mentioned,
and everybody mentioned is a winner.

Anybody can start the thread on a Monday.

Ko.fe's work and aesthetic remain an inspiration: a dark, fragile take on ordinary things, just behind conscious perception.

Intended effect or not, these structures by Mj Buckpitt are anything but stable. And hold our interest.

Charlesdamorgan. As lynn remarked, its incredble that such technology had such consequence. But only by today's standards. A good rendering.

Miehrman having a particularly moody week.

Evocative and moody cloister (but not claustrophobic)

The eternal country road

The wobbling Tower of Babel from MJ Buckpitts

Daveoo's Ethanol farm, with more than a hint of product sampling - really good use of blur

The exquisite tracery of asymmetrical symmetry from Greg Maslak

Bike Tourist putting into feline form one of my favourite Handel Arias: As with rosy steps the morn, from Theodora, advancing drives the shades of night. The night creature the black cat now a happy daylight beastie.

And a super evocative, beautifully composed and printed series from Ko.Fe

As alwayis it's nice to see this thread starting again! Wonderful selection already made, I try to add a little bit of color

A photo by Enlo with delicate not shouted colors and interesting details, autumn style!

Lovely portrait, love the expression and the colors palette, included the small amount in the jug on the background. Bravo Anthsmith !

Now it's difficult: two photos from Dotur, one I like for the almost no color in it and the other because of the strong "splash" of color. Not sure which one I prefer I'll submit the both!

It's not the color itself but the subject and the composition which make this almost monochromatic photo by Mlehrman interesting to my eyes: I like this kind of geometry and the reflections which provide an additional layer to the compositiom.

Different style here: again I like the geometry which is now supported by strong comlementary colors, well seen by Rangefinder 35.

I'll come back later to this thread with my selection of B&W photos.

Time for my selectio of B&W pics. Most have already been posted here before...

CharlesDAMorgan posted a good street scene, and with added bonus of some humor! Please do not forget to read the "wanted" sign

Evocative interior shot by Mlehrman

Mother and child, by Greg Maslak. Love the fram and ...the faces! Do you see them?

Mlehrman again! Love the light and the perspective in this photo, love that road!

Power, from an interesting series by Daveoo, one photo has already been selected by CharlesDAMorgan therefore I select another good one, where I like the way the frame is divided in three parts by the two chimneys. And I appreciate the ...low-fi look !

Multiple layers in the selfportrait in Rotterdam by Alberti, I like the candelabra in the background

In this wet times I could I be not interested in this photo from dotur?

Interesting framing, almost a double frame in this photo by Ko.fe

They say there is no rose without thorns...Lynn surprises us with a beautiful cell phone picture of a splendid rose...

A photo with an high content of art by Mv72: the ability of the photographer and the beauty of the nature give us a special result

Most of people in this forum already know the class of Alex Krasotkin when he makes his portraits, like the one with Cleo here but I like very much also the shot of the church of San Giovenni in Crisostomo, beautiful light and beautiful B&W.

Cleo:

San Giovanni Crisostomo
