😎Dear friends! I heartily congratulate you on the New Year 2020! 🎉Last year, thanks to your support, I better recognized my strengths and weaknesses in photography! Undoubtedly, without you and your work and comments, the year would have been different! I wish you all good health and new creative successes. Sincerely, Oleg P (Listenwave Photography)📷

See video on my Chanel about this!

🌚What served as a change in perception many years ago no one will remember ... But this is not so important! It is important that the next day a new world appears! #listenwave #monotone #fineart #foveon #Фовеоныч. Фотография без поз!

mhm, well, i've been wanting to do a peacock feather photo for a long time, this isn't at all what i had in mind, but i liked it enough.

and the feather was a bit dodgy. :P

colours are better in safari...

OlympusOmZuiko 21mmF3.5

Tryptic compiled from some ICM shots of me taken by Michele Reneau.

Photographers at the Olympus photographic playground in Amsterdam. The light source creates a shadow on the screen which is between me and the photographer. Through the shadow another photographer and his subject is visible.

 

At first sight the shadow looks more real than the person that creates the shadow :).

 

For me this image serves as a modern illustration of Plato's cave allegory and the perception of the freed philosopher. The philosopher can see through the shadows the reality. The image illustrates for me also that images can have different layers of interpretation.

 

Cave allegory from Wikipedia:

Plato has Socrates describe a gathering of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all of their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall from things passing in front of a fire behind them, and they begin to give names to these shadows. The shadows are as close as the prisoners get to viewing reality. He then explains how the philosopher is like a prisoner who is freed from the cave and comes to understand that the shadows on the wall do not make up reality at all, for he can perceive the true form of reality rather than the mere shadows seen by the prisoners. ...This allegory fascinated me already as a child.

Chicago-based artist Mika Horibuchi is interested in tricks and slips in visual perception. The curtains, window blinds, and optical illusions she uses as subjects often conceal as much as they reveal. Drawing equally from art history and psychology, she uses techniques such as hyperrealism and trompe l'oeil—in which an image is rendered in detail so true to life that it appears three-dimensional—to walk the line between honesty and deception. In the artist’s words, “A slight betrayal of expectations is at play.”

I live for the present always. I accept this risk. I don't deny the past, but it's a page to turn.

Movement aberration through a rolling train window.

Pandemic street photography full of symbolism.

I often like to think about our place in the universe... and scale... and relativity. For all we know, this big honking Earth of ours... teeming with what we know as lifeforms... is merely a molecule in some other, much larger structure.

 

Could be. After all, the microscopic view reveals entire worlds and civlizations invisible to our unaided eyes. And even a macro lens gives us a whole different perspective on size and scale.

 

And since I'm too tired to write today, I'll just repeat some doggerel I created as a kid, which basically says the same kind of thing (and suggests that I have changed very little in the past 30-plus years):

 

To a flea it's a four-lane highway

To an ant it's a mountain pass

To a cow it's plain delicious

To me it's a piece of grass.

 

(P.S. This is my first photo taken with my first-ever macro lens, which Husband Mike bestowed upon me for the big Four-Oh.)

   

Camera movement in the bluebell woods. I figured out that I get a much smoother movement if I keep the camera close to my face rather than holding it a little further away.

  

I took this shot at the Salford Quays watersports centre, these canoes were stacked up and looked interesting, and the name perception intrigued me too.

Seeing things differently

Taken and edited with Iphone 4

This is my by far my favorite style of photography, long twilight exposures.

 

Im on a run of lackluster sunsets, but today i was determined to go home with a shot. After seeing the result I need to get out more when its rubbish.

 

wind was blowing a gale, I could literally see the camera wobbling.

Somehow managed a sharp image. to do with the law of averages I assume.

 

just switched to lightroom 4 and cant find where they hide the photo info menu, anyway.

 

approx 8 min, lights turned on for last 3min (lucky touch)

In this photo, does the railing of the staircase appear perfectly straight, or does it deform into an undulation, like a wave, as soon as you look at it? Is what we perceive, as individuals, objective reality, or just a subjective interpretation of it? Between different people, do we share the same vision of the world around us, or are our perceptions shaped by our unique experiences? In short, aren't there as many realities as there are individuals? Couldn't we say that the world is, in the final analysis, only what we choose to see in it?

 

Sur cette photo, le garde-corps de l’escalier semble-t-il parfaitement droit, ou se déforme-t-il en une ondulation, comme une vague, dès que votre regard se pose dessus ? Ce que nous percevons, en tant qu'individus, est-il la réalité objective, ou n’est-ce qu’une interprétation subjective de celle-ci ? Entre différentes personnes, partageons-nous la même vision du monde qui nous entoure, ou nos perceptions sont-elles façonnées par nos expériences uniques ? En somme, n’existe-t-il pas autant de réalités qu’il y a d’individus ? Ne pourrait-on pas affirmer que le monde n’est, en définitive, que ce que nous choisissons d’y voir ?

I always try to catch the light and the moment. It`s like dancing Tango Argentino: A passion!

Saturday I danced with the light and this shot is the fusion!

 

A moment and the light as well:

Firth of Thames, New Zealand

This time of the year is high season for drunk driving. People attending Christmas parties and driving (more or less) drunk home.

 

Luckily this is no longer an acceptable behaviour compared to 10 or 20 years ago where "just drive carefully" was the motto.

 

We seems to forget that alcohol influence on our perception, so we can not judge how to drive a car. And when not to try at all.

Dome, Last Light. © Copyright 2021 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

 

The last light of the day glows on a granite dome in the Yosemite backcountry wilderness.

 

If your experience with the natural world comes largely from watching media about the experiences of those who travel there… it is possible that your perception is skewed in ways that do not quite correspond to reality. Based on what you'll sometimes see, you could end up thinking that the wilderness is a wild, thrill-a-minute place full of dangerous animals, daring hikes along edges of cliffs and more — all with exciting, bigger-than-life narration and dramatic musical accompaniment. I admit to occasionally falling (happily) for such illusions, but the reality is a lot different. Most of the time little happens. It is quiet. You are alone with your thoughts. There is time and space to just ponder.

 

The end of a backcountry day is often such a time, and when it comes — as this scene does — from the end of a backcountry season, it can be even quieter and meditative. As a photographer, the last few hours of the day are often busy times as we “work the light” before it is gone. But inevitably, the light eventually fades, and I’m often left standing quietly and just… looking.
