I'm thinking that the two hanging pulls are oriented vertically.

Yes. But straightening the image to them throws everything else off.

There's this:

How did you do that???

Apologies to Linda.

Still, a correction seems to me correct and more pleasant to see

Light and line, late afternoon in the hall at the country house.
Drop by any time, and pick your seat. We've used the hall for visiting with friends and family for 120 years. The patterns that light casts coming through the ornate screen doors fascinated me as a child, and still do.

Well, I'm glad we got that issue straightened out 🤪🤪

Compare/contrast: The competitive cyclit's vs the regular guy with a bike. The regular guy is watching the muscled up/tattooed up/geared up competition cyclist with a look that is part wistful, part wonder as he pedals along at an unhurried pace. The competitor is careening around a corner with speed and intensity of focus. This drama, set against an old world city wall, is an age old one of those who compete and those who stand (or ride) and watch. Whether he wishes he were "that guy" or is relieved that he's not, the regular guy makes this more than a sporting shot.

Yes, an abstract I think. I would not have guessed what it was, and even now I'm not entirely sure what I'm looking at. Assuming the orange thing is some kind of culvert or corrugated pipe. The whirlpool effect, the darkest tone in the image, is our focal point and the other colors and textures fan out from there like a pinwheel. There's lines to chase and all of them lead to the outer edges, so the formation holds everything together for me. Well spotted.

Because I can't identify any of the elements in this one, my mind visually processed it as if it were an abstract. The colors are powerful and the red of course demands we climb up that piece of twisted silver to look at it, then it points us to the right where we find the dark exit. There are bokeh balls bouncing about all over, and larger balls holding smaller ones. The Thing, whatever it is, runs from one thirds point to another but I'm not sure that matters, since the Thing itself is so dominant. Interesting to try to think your way through such an obscure image.

A picture will sometimes strike a chord or memory in the viewer .. Not sure what you had in mind but I've been in this houses .. the hallway and chairs suggest the resident – old and living here for many years.... My age perhaps leads me to interpret those bars on the door as restrictions that we come upon as we age .. and can no longer participate in the world beyond the door as we have and might like to now …. Very interesting and problematic picture for me …. and done well as you always do ...

That's very interesting and a pretty genius idea. Works really well for a multi-faceted and colorful in-motion thing like public transporation. Did you have to do that by hand or is there some automation going on in composing the image? Excellent work.
-
Thanks. I wrote a computer program to do the compositing. There were about 30 images in the original captured sequence. There are several thousand crops used to make the composite.

This is just brilliant Lou. An absolutely top notch image. I don't know whether you had a chance to construct the scene or whether you fortuitously came upon it by chance but either way, the arrangement of parts is pretty much perfect. We first "see" the lines of the headless/armless/legless torso in marvelous lighting, wearing nothing but an elaborate necklace. Then we explore the pile of disembodied arms, the hands turned over and under, and that single lurid magenta nail. We discover the other items - plastic eating utensils? Brackets to reconstruct the mannequin? Their arrangement in their individual but well chosen containers are as perfect as the rest of it. The color toning is a good choice. The image is mysterious, erotic, humorous and quite original. Well done.

A mannequin from IKEA. The title should be, "Some assembly required." 😁 Another wonderful image - one of your best on this forum. Perfect lighting, perfect composition, perfect color. I love the fingernails.

Just very nice. Reminds me of my youth. Shame they don't build houses like that any more...
