When we happen to admire someone's specific talent, in whatever field it manifests itself, we often want to imitate it, even knowing from the beginning that this talent does not belong to us and that we could never be able to match it.
At the same time, by striving to learn and to be inspired by those who do best what we try to do, with questionable results, we always have a hope of improving our skills.
The dilemma is to decide whether mere imitation can make sense when one is aware of not knowing how to go beyond it.
All this reasoning, quite useless, is just an attempt to motivate the reason that prompted me to take some pictures quite different from my usual ones.
There is a very good photographer who has been posting the most beautiful photos of cars I have ever seen on PBase for some time. Even if cars don't fascinate me that much, I am always enchanted to admire what he can do with them in photography. The way in which he knows how to enhance the details, use the light reflected on the bodywork, emphasize the shapes fascinates me and fills me with admiration.
Today, returning from one of my walks, I found myself in front of a rather peculiar car, with only three wheels and suddenly I thought about the photos of Dan Greenberg and what he would be able to do.
That's all.
I wanted to try.
