Because the night Photo Gallery by Marisa Livet at pbase.com

Because the night

I’m delighted that some virtual companions have taken these night wanderings with me.
I mean all the people who have been so kind to leave a comment to this gallery.
I voluntary chose here “low profile” subjects.
No impressive monuments, no large rich, shining squares.
Simply little common houses in my neighbourhood or in near villages.
My parents’ in-law home, the baker’s, the library…
and other anonymous ones.
At least once in their honest life of unpretentious buildings, they have the leading role.
So thank you for the attention you have given to this series of photos!
I thank you also in name of the houses, which cannot speak, but can wink at you silently by their lit up windows.

the essence of serenity and simplicity. Gorgeous lighting. A walk through these photos/places is a pure joy. Voted

On aime se perdre dans ces ambiances nocturnes où l'on ne croise presque personne si ce n'est la silhouette fugitive d'une fée surprise dans ses errances ou un retardataire pressé de regagner la chaleur du logis. De belles images qui suscitent des émotions et le sentiment de solitude est vite compensé par celui d'un certain bien-être, d'une certaine sérénité...BV.

Wow, these are superb images Marisa. I love the intimate feel that your processing brings out of the photographs. To me you create an other-worldly look that makes me expect to see a hobbit walking down the road.

These humble buildings exude charm and character, the like of which their modern counterparts could only dream of! And, of course, they really come alive at night when lit up. It is good to see that they are cherished and protected, and the heinous mistakes made by 1960s town planners in parts of the UK have not been repeated where you live. A lovely gallery!

silvia marmori		23-Sep-2007 03:25
they not only winked at me, but they brought another idea about the night.. i see myself now sitting at computer, looking through the window the stars, what was part of the concept i love about the night.. but who knows there is someone outside, as you did, just making "a night" with my house, with its lights.. (i think they are winking, yes...) about the images by themselves.. no need to say how beautiful they are.. just they have your invisible signature..

I simply love the way you see, Marisa. Such a fresh eye you have, and the execution of the idea is kissingly perfect, so perfect that I throw illegitimate adverbs at you in long winded sentences. But that is the gush of my admiration. Stupendous and stunning, these images are delicious, just like the secret that is embraced in a happy night. Thank you once again for the inspiration.

I have always loved the night, with its moments and magical feelings, in silence, in the quiet ones when all it sleeps... it's like if all the breathlessnesses of the life were suspended for a moment... have a risen of complicity the night. In the lights and the shadows of these your photographies meeting little of the feelings that the night they give to me.

Guest		18-Sep-2007 04:32

Une lumière n'est pas belle à photographier ni à regarder ... Une ambiance éclairée par contre oui ! La lumière N'est absolument rien si elle ne reflète pas sur quelque chose. Les bâtiments si âgés et éclairés ici ont tous l'ambiance respectable des temps... Bravo poura voir ainsi respecté cette ambiance si facile à détruire pourtant ! Cela prend du doigté ! Merveilleuse et chaude gallerie de ces lieux transmis de générations en générations!

Jean-Paul PLUME		17-Sep-2007 19:35
Les fenêtres éclairées témoignent de la présence des personnes dans leur intimité, le calme s'installe en même temps que le bleu profond de la nuit, les lampadaires scintillent doucement comme pour faire oublier les contraintes de la journée et nous guider vers le sommeil. Il n'y a plus qu'à fermer les yeux pour donner place aux rêves. Jean-Paul
