S16R2410-1websig.jpg

Starting a black and white gallery with a colour: mammaaaaa....

NOTE: I'm introducing a "meme" here: LOOK AT THE SHAPE OF THE ROCK I HAVE PLACED CENTRALLY IN THE SHOT: you will see the SAME shape in the landscape later!
Clever eh?
This is how you THEME-LINK a gallery, either in a real or virtual gallery space such as this at PBase.
Obviously I introduce a ROCK meme or recurrent symbol to suggest something, an idea or feeling: "rock" has a context if applied to a person's character, say, and if given a religious or spiritual context, this becomes a more resonant and personalised idea for the viewer.

You see, in a photo, your aim is to find where the viewer is, then present a set of choices whereby they can be LED FROM THAT PLACE and in a manner that is pleasing and fulfilling for them: ultra-refined pure and applied NLP: you're enabling them to kinaesthitically LIKE what you're doing to them: "hmm, nice pic, feels good man" kinda thing.

This is the walk I take to get the shots in this gallery: just down a hill, along a beach; repeat a few times until you've had enough.
See the tones, textures and colours here: it's early morning in May: not as golden warm a COLOUR TEMPERATURE as winter but long before the cold blue light of a midsummer midday would really mean I put the camera away till after 3.30 pm at this time.

For those in other parts of the world or caught in a Far Cry Primal timewarp(I was: not pretty, folks!, Wales is in the northern hemisphere. On a bad day, you can set off from here and get to Americay.
