Monochrome

I will call this one Embrouillement...( for Lucie :>) though I don't speak French only wish I could. Follow up shots to explain this in detail will follow...I promise you WILL be disappointed :>)

From the Monochrome Gallery http://www.pbase.com/laine82/monochrome_2007



My pelican images here http://www.pbase.com/laine82/blue_herons

I need to explain there has beeen no post processing on this image
or any of the others in this group of pelican images other than resizing.
They were not even sharpened.Taken in May 2005 on a very
bright autumn morning as the sun was rising out over the ocean




There are several other images in that gallery if you would like to see them.

Canon EOS 350D
1/100s f/5.6 at 55.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Excellent detail! Great DOF!
CJ Burianek19-Feb-2006 04:02
Beautiful abstract!
Haven't noticed the change on the recent galleries... will have to check it out. Did notice that PBase was down quite a bit today when I was trying to go through and look at photos
Jackdad17-Feb-2006 08:29
fascinating - no idea what it is!
Guest 15-Feb-2006 04:27
Nice abstratc, and I admit that I am intrigued :0)
Guest 15-Feb-2006 01:22
eye-catching!
JW14-Feb-2006 23:47
What acool pic, even though we now know what it is. Great work.
David Clunas14-Feb-2006 22:27
Very nice, looks like a spoiler on the back of a car ? :)
GREAT DoF
petesie14-Feb-2006 18:08
The image is mesmerizing, and the comments are so much fun!
poetry66614-Feb-2006 13:49
Interesting b&w image Laine. I like the DOF and the sharpness of one small area. Lovely lighting too!
Guest 14-Feb-2006 13:00
Great capture, Laine!
Guest 14-Feb-2006 12:29
I like this abstract shot, I don't know exactly what it is , but it's nice :)
Karen Stuebing14-Feb-2006 12:08
Neat abstract and b/w image. Love the pelican gallery too. I thought galleries showed thumbnails by default?
Guest 14-Feb-2006 09:44
very abstract like laine.
Johan Toll14-Feb-2006 07:42
Excellent, love the tones! It felt like one of Lucie´s shots, then I read your note :) Well done!
Hans Meerbeek14-Feb-2006 06:30
Fascinating!
Guest 14-Feb-2006 04:39
Not sure what this is but it IS intriguing!
Guest 14-Feb-2006 03:20
Great abstract, Laine and excellent pelican captures!
Greg Harp14-Feb-2006 03:14
Terrific abstract image--works great in B&W.
Elaine (etfitz)14-Feb-2006 02:59
Wonderful abstract! Not quite sure what it is.
Guest 14-Feb-2006 02:56
Beautiful!! Whatever it is :-)
Sheila14-Feb-2006 02:55
Oh no. I hadn't seen the thumbs option on the recent gallery page as I never go there. It's excellent.
Sheila14-Feb-2006 02:52
Have looked at it every which way and I have no idea at all!
I tried to Googly translate embrouillement and got, embrouillement LOL!
Karen Leaf14-Feb-2006 02:23
Whoa, this is cool. Something to do with a car??

I love the recent Recent thumbs. So many really wonderful images.
Guest 14-Feb-2006 02:21
Great mystery, laine. Very well done.
And LOL! at the embrouillement! I love it! your French is getting very good ;-)
I like the grey and the texture of the main thing in this image.
I also like the circles of light in the background...
René Lortie14-Feb-2006 02:21
Very nice "embrouillement" Laine. Votre français est "intéressant".
virginiacoastline14-Feb-2006 01:46
hmm . . amazing close up . . got me wondering . . and NO i didn't know about the thumb thing until you mentioned it. Makes sense tho and I like it too . . . I think I may click on a few more galleries now than I did before
Thanks for the update =)
Breland14-Feb-2006 01:10
You have me but I do like the shadows on it.
Yvonne14-Feb-2006 00:57
Maybe its part of a sandal? Whatever it is, I like it & the lighting a lot!
Wenche Aune14-Feb-2006 00:08
Excellent B&W, wonerful abstract. V
wernere0113-Feb-2006 23:29
Like it just simply because I have no idea what it is. Oh no, I think it´s glasses, may be sun glasses. So now I´m sure means may be I´m wrong. Fine miracle.
Lee Rudd13-Feb-2006 23:17
it does look like a spoiler of some sort... nice photo whatever it is :)
Gail Davison13-Feb-2006 23:04
Lovely abstract Laine - it really draws the eye round the photo.
Guest 13-Feb-2006 22:14
So Al likes the BB, and Sharon likes the bg..... I'm finding it hard enough to understand the comments, let alone the image!!! It's great though! My guess is the black thing is some sort of camera or flash handgrip.
Sharon Rogers13-Feb-2006 21:56
Looks like the back end of a car to me.. ? I like the bg :=)) Cool work.
Guest 13-Feb-2006 21:55
Beautiful abstract-like image Laine. It took me quite a while to figure out what this image is.. :) Great eye you have Laine. This shot of yours gets my vote. :)
James Ross13-Feb-2006 21:07
Great Laine, you don't cease to amaze!!
I'm glad you maentioned abot the recent galleries, I wasn't sure if that was a new feature or that I'd missed it before. :-)
Jim Ross13-Feb-2006 21:03
The suspense...!!! I'll go with Zak, its a part of a car...
Guenter Eh13-Feb-2006 20:57
The magical in this shot is NOT to know what it is! This left a big space for own interpretation and imagination!!! Thanks for thought provoking Laine!
Al Chesworth13-Feb-2006 20:43
Might agree with Zak, but in any event you are a real BB tease.
Most unusual.
royalld13-Feb-2006 20:41
I don't know what it is, but I like the abstract.
I hope I don't run out of battery power before the truth is revealed.
Zak13-Feb-2006 20:40
it's a Porsche 911 spoiler, you've bought yourself a Porsche! :D
Guest 13-Feb-2006 20:16
OH! I happen to know just what this object is.

You have turned your new snowmobile helmet sideways, put the visor up, and shot across that section of the helmet.
what! I'm wrong ...... Well it is a delightful image anyway!
northstar3713-Feb-2006 20:04
looks like a crab's claw
Johnny JAG13-Feb-2006 20:00
I like it, and don't care what it is.
chrisse13-Feb-2006 19:49
OK, I'm curious. You've made a real abstract here, I like the lines.
Chrisse
Buz Kiefer13-Feb-2006 19:49
Nice lines and it looks like a pair of Madonna's or an alien's shoes. But I repeat myself.
Josy's Pics13-Feb-2006 19:39
Nice composition... great job!
Guest 13-Feb-2006 19:34
Great abstraction Laine,ive given up in trying to decide what it is, maybe its my hangover;-(
Guest 13-Feb-2006 19:26
FABULOUS!! I don't know what it is but I love it. Great, great shot!! V
Kathy Pedersen13-Feb-2006 19:26
Wonderful abstract, great curves!
