The Screw by Dr Isaac Vaisman, PPSA

January 2022 - The Screw

About the Image(s)

The Screw was created a few years ago at the Art Basel Expo in the Convention Center of Miami Beach using a Nikon vintage looking Df with the Nikkor Zoom Lens 24-120 mm f/4 at 110 mm and with these settings: ISO 2500, f/10 and 1/50 sec. The image was PP in LightRoom for white balance, light n the shadows and some clarity and cropped. I found very interesting the way the lady was photographing the screw, which by itself was one of the art pieces on the ground and at the middle of the room, with her iPhone.

Good eye to capture this interesting scene. Pretty neat that her iphone is so clear. It tells a story. I like your ISO setting. I'm in Group 92.   Posted: 01/06/2022 14:29:50



 
Fabulous! I see form. First flowing from the woman than the screw and the screw point may be inappropriate, still it fills the triangular shape of the female form. The purse serves well to pull attention to the woman? Or perhaps the phone? Or the screw? the tension is pleasing. A great photo and my question: why did you wait so long to share it?   Posted: 01/09/2022 17:51:10



 
Since the use of the smartphone has become established, everything is photographed. This photo is an illustration of the urge to take a picture of everything. We see a museum visitor, the papers of the tour on the ground and the screen of the mobile phone. Perfectly framed, a picture of this era.   Posted: 01/14/2022 06:38:52

Great capture Isaac. Lots of triangles both with the negative space and the triangles created by the stripes in her dress and the paper. Well balanced composition and the white background wall provides a calm breathing space and contrast to the activity at the bottom of the image. Glad you were able to get the whole i-phone in focus. Neat camera position- guessing that you were on your knees as well.   Posted: 01/18/2022 06:58:40

So many layers and shapes make this a compelling photo. The three 'points' (the end of the dress, the screw and the paper) all fit together to make a triangle enhanced by the curve of the woman's body and her dress pattern. The iPhone screen shot of the screw is an added bonus. Each time I looked at this photo I found something new and interesting. B   Posted: 01/29/2022 19:50:07
