Almost every Sunday, the residents owning vintage cars and bikes assemble at a designated place (Horniman circle) here in Mumbai. I really dont know what they do after that, but we enthusiasts get a good close-up view of these mean machines. Then they accelerate down the Marine drive promenade (almost like a parade) and thats a spectacular visual display (with high decibel audio).
Clicked on one such occasion... the Vespa's.

Another from my Visual Culture project, although this one didn't make it into the final cut.

Well I’m sure it’s pretty obvious where this started from, not.
It’s another great photographic idea that flopped on implementation and subsequently to be repurposed for Sliders Sunday. Originally it was a picture of water boiling in the bottom of a pan, taken on a whim while on holiday.
Great idea. Pity about the steam clouding the image, lol.
The Topaz Glow filter, for me, is a bit like a banned substance I guess (and I have to guess ;) )...I have withdrawal problems if I don’t get a regular dose of it...
Glow needs two things to work well at this abstract end of its possible uses: some sort of linear structure to seed its collagen building algorithms and some interesting colour. The boiling water (so the idea went) was all interesting circles for the structure, but the question was how to add colour, zap, zing, pizazz and general psychedelia?
So I created a layer formed from two overlaid conical rainbow gradients and blended that with the bubbles using Soft Light. I then used a Mirror distortion filter with 6 mirrors to get the sixfold symmetry (I’ll link to the original bubbles and this interim stage - where you can just still make the bubbles out - in the first comment).
Then the real fun started. Into Topaz Glow starting with one of the Neon presets, and then sliding the sliders to taste…
Back into Affinity Photo for mangling with the hue, saturation, contrast, colour curves (LAB) and a bit of Clarity filter. And there you have it, well apart from a black frame and a blue internal shadow :)
Thanks for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image (legally) :) Happy Sliders Sunday!!
Here is my first attempt at architecture. I admire people who can just take those photos that are perfectly aligned or even know how to edit them so they are straight.
Well I dont know either but I do know that to see all these shapes in one place at a time aligned with the light and shadow is utter magic.
Here is a special thank you to my friend who brought me there. And saw me freaking out at this sight (:

I don't know what Marbled Hot Springs Rd. would be without the American Bitterns! While we were there the reeds hadn't had a chance to grow very tall so the Bitterns were pretty easy to spot. Raising their heads up generally in position with the vertical reeds I'm sure they are imagening they are hidden from sight...I didn't realize until this picture what an incredible 'visual perspective' they have of everything around them in this position!
My favourite time of year is Fall because it is such a visual delight. The wonderful colors, the smell in the air and everything that goes with it. This area of Fish Creek shows a river gently winding through an area of colorful trees.

haha. We totally look like we're in a visual kei band. I'm the lead guitarist and Severine is the dark, tortured singer.
Day 24 of 365
I took this photograph couple of days ago while we were heading to library with Aura. In my mind this picture compares very closely to Day 19. Not only is it taken almost from the same spot, but the light is a bit similar and again the whole picture is based on a very well known visual motif of silhouette figure. I hope the guy is at least someone else this time! When I took that earlier picture, I wrote about feeling mixed about it because pictures which are too much based on known visual motifs become clichés easily. Looking it now, I feel I need to lighten my stance and focus it a bit.
I don't want to be against visual motifs. If you look at the history of photography, it quickly becomes clear that it isn't reasonable stance to take. As a matter of fact, many classic photographs can be considered, if not only to be based on visual motifs, but also something which have created them in the first place. Like someone who commented my earlier picture said, there are only a finite number of different visual motifs, maybe just a few hundred. And being 'language of photography' they can be put to use in different ways, which means that the motifs don't control photography as much as one would think. So, yes I'm lightening my stance here, but here comes the focus part. I think that if photography is solely based on repeating these visual motifs, it is reduced, I think, to be repeated for didactic purposes. To me, some genres of photography are close to this, but I can understand there are different approaches to this. In my mind I would like to think that good photography also needs a context, a story or some other 'interpretative dimension' to make them something more than just 'pictures of the world'. I know it's a challenging claim to make, but it is also very much something that I need to learn myself too.

a quiet day on the homestead. nothing but rain and the wind sweeping the roof of the house, and the low snoring of the dogs. ...or maybe that was me.
chipping away at notes for the next book...reading (and surprisingly enjoying) richard montanari's the rosary girls...taking naps...nursing a low-grade pain in my head that simply won't go away.
me 'n the dogs'll get out tomorrow....weather permitting.
