About the Image(s)

I rescued a crumpled piece of computer paper from our recycle box and thought it suggested an image. I'm hoping that others might also interpret an image and am curious to learn what you see. Enjoy!

Camera specs: Canon EOS 5D Mark III and a 100 mm Macro f2.8 lens using the following settings: 2.5 sec. F/10. ISO 200.

At first glance of your image, instead of a crumpled piece of paper, I thought it was an old sheet. It looks more cottony to me than papery. As for seeing something in it, possibly a turtle with its head protruding out from the shell with its two front legs also extending.   Posted: 11/16/2024 22:50:28

Thank you, Karen for playing along and sharing your interpretation of the image. I hope others will 'see' something, too.   Posted: 11/20/2024 14:32:39

I just finished making my comments on Melissa's image. In thinking about your image my mind goes back to the theatre, this time to the ballet. I see two dancers, male and female in the "adagio" portion of the Grand Pas de deux. The two are very close in an elaborate partnering of the two dancers. The contrast of the white paper and the black background have a great deal of impact on the image. Nice image, it allows one to let their imagination go. Interesting assigment, really get the veiwer into the action.   Posted: 11/20/2024 06:04:57

Wow, Jim! Thank you for playing along and offering this detailed description. It has given me a new take on this image. I suspect you may be a ballet aficionado!   Posted: 11/20/2024 14:44:16
