Description


...photo composition within an 18th century room in the Nelson Art Gallery in Kansas City last year. ...the room was furnished with museum quality period furniture but I got the feeling of too much room and too little furniture. ...this is my attempt to make something out of what I originally thought was nothing:) Bill "Unusual Attitude" thumb_2220770.jpg

When I saw the thumb I was quite attracted to it, and wondered who had done such a lovely and different piece! When I saw it was you, you could have knocked me over with a feather. Such a departure! I like this very much. The composition is just right, and the light is really nice. (Not sure about the heavy texture, but that's just "imho.") Really good work!

A lovely composition, Bill! It definitely has that 18th century look and feel to it - way to go! Sheesh - it's been years since I've been to the Nelson... I really must take a day and go explore again.

Interesting with the old photo texture filter. As for the furniture, it's worth noting the taste of the time - a few pieces of very fine furniture with lots of space around so each piece can be appreciated for itself. Also, much socializing at the time was standing up and mingling in the salons. Our modern age has more material wealth, but crowds it together. We also are more a sitting-down culture today. Look at the French salons between 1600 and 1870. There's a sparcity of furniture, the focus being on being social and mixing (no furniture is "in the way" of movement). So, your photo actually catches the spirit of the period very well! :-)

Excellent work, Bill; I'm guessing the larger clothing styles of the times had a lot to do with necessary space around things!

Nice image, although I too think the texture takes away from it just a bit. I'd love to see the clock more clearly. But experimenting is always a good thing! : )
