Next week the new version of "Poltergeist" will open in theaters around the nation. Your title made me think of the original movie. Very creative work and an excellent entry into the contest. John.
Smile, without a reason why. Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way. (From the film "Life Is Beautiful")
I wonder whether this is not too personal or honest for a decent secret agent :) Love the message & title and of course the image itself ! Yours forgetful SAM & SAAB with the best memory ever
When I am more mentally alert.. I do enjoy trying to figure out what you did in terms of post processing and so forth.
Kind of like.. solving a creative mystery, which appeals to both my analytical and creative sides.
Today, though..
Think I will simply enjoy your work as the mental acuity is not quite there (been a long day and then some).
What does intrigue me, though.. is the differing expressions. Ranging from what I perceive in the foreground as.. benevolent, kind and open.. to that of a more cynical and perhaps, darker soul in the back.
With.. the associated lighting changes (again, moving from front to back/left to right).. underscoring the underlying personalities that I am attributing to each.
Could even extend that visual construct/interpretation to incorporate the 'solidness' of each figure/visage, and again.. comparatively speaking.
Composition is strong, regardless.
Think I will linger some more on your piece here, John.. as some times it takes me some time to digest all that is within frame.
In the interim..
Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. Always appreciate your work and how you 'challenge' us visually.
