A stitch in time.

Believe it or not this is a radio tower shot at slow shutter speeds. Yes all together now, OMG Pixel ANOTHER tower?!?!?

Would love to hear your thoughts thanks for taking a look!
(flickr is being testy so had to upload to photobucket, fingers crossed it doesn't trash it!)

A stitch in the sky.

Want to comment, but don't know where to begin. It's weird.

 

[PixelRabbit]

Weird works! I actually find it mildly creepy.

As an abstract, I actually think it's kinda cool! It kinda reminds me of a photo of shock waves from a bullet filmed in slow motion, or being shot through water.

It needs company. I don't think it's very powerful standing alone. In the context of a gallery full of similar photos it could be an example of a unique visual style.
You should explore and expand on this vision.

This is pretty cool. Call me crazy, but the theme of "stitch" I think calls for more of a centered composition.

I love the way it looks. It's not at all identifiable as a radio tower, but as an abstract it's kickin'. Looks like a cross between a bromoil print and a charcoal drawing. Yum, I say - yum.

 

[PixelRabbit]

Thanks all!

So I'm learning that with ones that are ambiguous like this I probably shouldn't identify what it is (thanks on FB Manabunny )

Sleist, I'm slowly putting that set together . Cynicaster, I thought of that.... After I got home and there isn't a lot of room to play with but I may give it another go and see if I can get something.
Terri, you make me yearn for my darkroom to be set up! Should be a couple weeks now! Woot!

You really need a Holga loaded with HP5 and Dektol as a developer for it.

Tease

Have a Holga for you.

Have a Holga for you.

Have I told you lately you rock?

Kind of looks like an x-ray of either a baseball or of a cut that was stitched up.

OMG--I was afraid it was a Silence of The Lambs sewing project or something weird like that! Nicely done!

It's very nice. In a collection of "tower" photographs it would be instantly recognizable as what it is. In a collection of abstracts it would not.

I really think you need to start pulling together a portfolio of towers. You've got some interesting takes on these objects, and I think a collection of 25 or so pictures could really be powerful.
