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!

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

Jackdad		17-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!

JW		14-Feb-2006 23:47
What acool pic, even though we now know what it is. Great work.

David Clunas		14-Feb-2006 22:27
Very nice, looks like a spoiler on the back of a car ? :) GREAT DoF

petesie		14-Feb-2006 18:08
The image is mesmerizing, and the comments are so much fun!

poetry666		14-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 Stuebing		14-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 Toll		14-Feb-2006 07:42
Excellent, love the tones! It felt like one of Lucie´s shots, then I read your note :) Well done!

Hans Meerbeek		14-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 Harp		14-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 :-)

Sheila		14-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.

Sheila		14-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 Leaf		14-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...

Ren� Lortie		14-Feb-2006 02:21
Very nice "embrouillement" Laine. Votre français est "intéressant".

virginiacoastline		14-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 =)

Breland		14-Feb-2006 01:10
You have me but I do like the shadows on it.

Yvonne		14-Feb-2006 00:57
Maybe its part of a sandal? Whatever it is, I like it & the lighting a lot!

Wenche Aune		14-Feb-2006 00:08
Excellent B&W, wonerful abstract. V

wernere01		13-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 Rudd		13-Feb-2006 23:17
it does look like a spoiler of some sort... nice photo whatever it is :)

Gail Davison		13-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 Rogers		13-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 Ross		13-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 Ross		13-Feb-2006 21:03
The suspense...!!! I'll go with Zak, its a part of a car...

Guenter Eh		13-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 Chesworth		13-Feb-2006 20:43
Might agree with Zak, but in any event you are a real BB tease. Most unusual.

royalld		13-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.

Zak		13-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!

northstar37		13-Feb-2006 20:04
looks like a crab's claw

Johnny JAG		13-Feb-2006 20:00
I like it, and don't care what it is.

chrisse		13-Feb-2006 19:49
OK, I'm curious. You've made a real abstract here, I like the lines. Chrisse

Buz Kiefer		13-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 Pics		13-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 Pedersen		13-Feb-2006 19:26
Wonderful abstract, great curves!
