2017 Project 52, 3rd quarter by Judith Noble (Urbanflyer) C & C desired always

The verticals and horizontals make this image very interesting.... :)

Week 32 is an interesting pic of curves and dots.... the chairs are waiting for someone to take advantage of the comfort they offer! Nice!
Week 33 - sky line is a beautiful blue (I like blues....:) ) and I agree with Nandakumar, the lines of the buildings and the cranes (?) make an interesting pic. Looks like Seattle is a busy place!

Progress for some does not mean a more liveable city--time to spend more time in the mountains! (I have been a little preoccupied with family matters but can now get back on track I think.)

yes--later this fall it will close for renovation of the restaurant.. but these cranes are all related to development in the area, not the Needle.

Nice capture of the changes to the city.

Week 34--Eastlake Orange

Finally caught up again. Had to work to find a vantage point to get this shot. Saw it first as I was driving along the freeway express lanes and knew I wanted to come back.

I looked up why there might be orange on display and see that it is a campaign effort in the fight against cancer - do I have this right? Are there orange lights glowing at night as well as one article suggested?

But back to your pic! I do like the distinctiveness of the photo. I also like that the orange isn't centered as I see another bit of orange on the column on the right side. This is an interesting photo! :)

Might be--this is next to or part of a major cancer center

It works very well Judith :)

Nicely done, very 3-dimensional.

Week 35--Dahlia--2017

I have become enamoured with dahlias! This beautiful ball was so sensuous!

Post #31, nicely exposed and composed.

I haven't seen such a dahlia before Judith, great color and light, a beautiful image :)

Thanks--it is one of the cactus dahlias. The garden is a trial garden where new varieties are tested and judged so it was not labeled by name

That building structure is great and that flower...WOW; never seen such a spherical one so far....:cool:

Thank you Nandakumar!

This is an absolutely gorgeous flower! And I like the way you presented it. Can you say why you didn't "center" the flower instead of putting it to one side of the frame? I'm guessing it is because of how the light was directed on the flower? But yes, it is beautiful!

Thanks! I rarely center things. I like the eye to move a bit around the frame rather than get stuck in a bullseye. In this case the light influenced which side I favored.

Some very interesting work in this quarter, Judith. I especially like Eastlake Orange and the Rorschach landscapes. Your Deflection shot resonated with me, not least because I am reading a book entitled How to Read Water and have been mesmerized by ripples and waves all summer. Thanks for the reference to the 10 Channel processing. I just watched the four videos and have bookmarked them for when I get into Photoshop, hopefully this winter.

Week 36--Going Up

Had jury duty so had to find a shot within the courthouse.
