I’ve long been a fan of impressionist photography. Photographs that are more about feelings than reality. Jerry Uelsmann has been a mentor. He was the first to combine images in the darkroom. And Barbara Astman who’s collages combine photographs with other media. There are other techniques. In-camera, double exposures. Camera movement during the exposure. Long exposures.
How about rain on the windshield?
I ran into a lot of bad weather on the way home this year, and became intrigued with DashCam photographs taken in the rain. I’d like to print and mount one.
Do you have a favourite?
They are so cool! Especially since our eyes almost never perceive things that way
Isn’t that what art does? To help us see things in a different light. To make us question and grow.
Exactly!
No. 2 I think, though not sure the bloody insect trace adds to it or not.
The insect trace adds authenticity 🙂
I agree, number 2
#3 – I like the flag.
Ah, you are American!
I haven’t taken any rain splashed photos yet. Usually I’m on the bike and really hesitate to take photos in pouring rain.
Impressionism..is really more the art that I do. Am finishing up a little painting, maybe for a niece who is getting married.
Try it. The results may surprise you.
When I’m in a car, bus, etc. I gave up from within home…I live in a highrise.
