Enamored by the photography of the mid-nineteenth century with it's attitude toward such elements as scale, linear overlapping, and presence of space, I attempted such in this composition.
I am simply astonished at what those photographers created with their early photography cameras, lenses, and developing techniques.
Sure I took a dozen shots with the digital camera - that's the luxury of what they do... quite an abomination of artistic talent.
Only one shot worked - where the central characters are composed as a stretched diamond and suspended in a jumble of converging lines.
How the masters of the nineteenth century managed to compose their masterpieces with one shot using a view camera is beyond my comprehension.
The fascinating thing of chameleons are their eyes. They could be moved in every different direction. So they could watch back and forward at the same time!

¡rosas del anhelo,
voces del consuelo,
amores del cielo!
¡escalas por donde
al alma responde
el que se me esconde!

a Compañía de Jesús logró adquirir el contiguo palacio de los Condes de Coruña, trasladando allá el Colegio en 1645.
Al poco tiempo después, los jesuitas procedieron al derribo de las casas de los Lasarte, para proceder en el solar resultante, a la construcción de la capilla del Colegio de la Santísima Trinidad (actual parroquia).

*Esta exposición fotográfica reúne un torrente de imágenes representativas de las comunidades rurales de la India y cautiva por la calidad compositiva y la viveza de sus imágenes. De la mano de la fotógrafa CRISTINA GARCÍA RODERO descubrimos la mirada de sus gentes y nos adentramos en un paisaje que parece suspendido en el tiempo.
La muestra ahonda en lo más sensible y mágico del mundo femenino y en la fuerza y capacidad de superación de las mujeres de Ananpur (Andhra Pradesh). La fotógrafa se acerca a ellas con un respeto reverencial.
La autora transita por un entorno de veredas encharcadas y claroscuros, buscando siempre en las profundidades de sus personajes profundidades de sus personajes para adentrarse en historias de la vida que enaltecen la condición humana.
A través de su obra, nos propone una particular forma de ver la India, un mundo complejo y fragmentado. Cada fotografía construye un código visual coherente y, sobre todo, trascendente.
*Presentación local/ Diputación de Guadalajara
*Comentario:
El arte de CRISTINA, entrañable, traduce de las imágenes, lo que ella sabe ver en lo que mira, para hacerlo ver a su vez. En un terreno duro, donde la vida transita sin versos, la dignidad no pierde altura, aliviando el peso al que confronta, invitando a la proximidad, desconociendo el rechazo
"If you want to express yourself you must present something tangible. But after a while this has only the function of a historic document. Objects aren't very important any more. I want to get to the origin of matter, to the thought behind it." Joseph Beuys, 1969. Ignore the Exif data, this shot was done with the Helios 44M-7 wide-open.
Clark's Woods - Iowa
Didn't have to venture out very far to capture the early morning delights. Buds, blossoms and leaves are finally "popping" announcing that spring is here in the heartland!
The variety of colors, shapes and size makes a walk in the woods worth the effort!

I took this in Verona because I was struck by the contrast between the faded blue shutters and the warm ochre wall which felt quietly expressive. The cracks in the stone frame and the worn paint gave it a kind of lived in charm I did not want to overlook. It is a simple scene but something about the texture and color made it feel worth capturing.
Isis Scissorhands never ceases to amaze me with her exquisite creations. Deeply grateful for this set that I used for our Community Virtual Library activity, Holidays Around the World. Album here: www.flickr.com/photos/pi_illios/albums/72157718842036986
Between visuals and music of the nutcracker and sharing our traditions in each of our countries we had a fantastic afternoon!

An ominous view over Clear Lake yesterday morning as the weather forecast was predicting freezing rain, sleet mixed with snow for our area starting late last night!
Well guess what? The weather man must know what he is doing because that is just what we are experiencing here this morning!
Sigh . . . not good!

«Scene Ungarn in NRW» (NRW being Northrhine-Westfalia, a county of Germany) is a transnational event spanning over four months and fourteen Cities, offering a wide variety of temporary/modern Hungarian Culture ranging from Dance, Performance, Music, Theatre, Literature and Visual Arts. This event has been held biannually for the last 20 years but now relaunches with a larger programme and under the supervision of the «NRW Kultursekretariat». I have been invited to take part and represent Hungary among 7 other photographers (i'm visualizing the Düsseldorf events). What came out is a brochure, poster, an exhibition and online presence.

An image taken when I was in New Mexico photographing an Indian Day School in Sanostee, near Ship Rock. It was a pretty breezy evening with red dust blowing. I turned around to get the wind out of my face, and this is the view I saw. That's Mitten Rock on the right and the road is Indian Service Rte 13 heading towards Arizona.
Lower Antelope Canyon in Page Arizona was our last stop in a week long trip to National parks in the area before we hit the Las Vegas. Last time I was here in afternoon so could not see the different shades of Red color which only is visible in morning time and you can see so many colors changing from here as morning sun rises above.
