Beautiful shot, Jon. As for Stieglitz' "Equivalents," they were dramatic, but I never understood their celebrity. I suppose this is another reason why I'm not a curator. My personal preference for his work was the nudes taken of his wife, Georgia O'Keeffe. Beyond the beauty of her own talent, she was a beauty herself. Not an in-your-face beauty, but with a subtle allure, nevertheless. Here's to his capturing her on film. And your sharing your work.
Jon: It looks as though one could reach out to gather it up. Nice pic. Louis
ReplyDeleteI thought it made a nice abstract. The title is a joke on Steglitz' "Equivalents".

ReplyDeleteI think the celebrity came from the fast that the Equivalents were the first fully abstract photographs.
