Black and white photography seems to have something more to say to us then usual colored one. If this rose where red it would be like other roses lovely, sexy, calm, happy.

To me black expose gave this rose some sadness meaning and little drops of water on petals seem like it is crying. Now this peace black rose is says about something sad and terrible that happened. Color seems changing everything in her expression.

Black bench also says more about the sad feelings, it means something unhappy and loneliness even if the view is beautiful but it is also in black color so it does not disturb the viewer. Colorful one with some wonderful colorful autumn trees frame is in opposite to it, happier and peace place. ...

I found some useful side with many tips from photographers and illustrators. Here is a link to one of the BLOG of Paul Morely. He shows who we can produce white/black photo in many ways in PhotoShop. Whole side have is really interesting and useful.

Find out your self.

Many older people suffering because of their loneliness, diseases and heartless family. Why is this happened to them, their lives sometimes are not so easy and calm at it suppose to be.

We meddle age people still have a chance to change that. Our moms and dads begging to older, and it seem that this is getting them so quickly that we are not prepared for that situation at all. In Poland there are houses for old people but they are not prepare to love them to the rest of their lives, if you lucky you find one that is good for their patients but most of them are know as places to die not to live even private houses for older people sometimes are so heartless.

What to do? We suppose to take care for our families even when such care means that our big devotion. I read about ...

It is almost Ester and the weather was great.

There were some green grass growing, tree were burgeon, birds were singing and know everything is covering by snow. Can you believe that? I was hoping that Ester will be more like spring time, worm, sunny and happy but now it looks more like Christmas. Winter is getting to knock on my door and I am not happy with that. Was try to buy some spring jacket but now I am depressed with this weather and won’t buy anything at all.

Maybe will just sit down on floor and get some fire in my fireplace.

It is crazy and I wonder what next will happened another Ice age or what I can’t wait a summer, because I think there will be no spring at all?

My previous article about images looks pretty strange (in my opinion) inspirited me to do some research on stock.

After a while here on DT this stock shows some very good but polite subjects, like business people, nature, abstract texture, background, simple objects.

I find out that it is not necessary so polite because it also shows some sexy women and men in negligee, sad, unhappy, angry, furies persons, catastrophic scenes and bloody objects and some other things that I found by using ‘unparliamentarily keywords’ (don’t know if this phrase exists in other languages but in Poland we use it to describe vulgar language).

Will not use them in this article, but they exist in searching engines of DT, I was wondering if this pretty girl with money ...

Is this a human?

I was wonder if all those components came from one person but it do not have model released so could be some mix form many models. Do not know if this picture is terrified me or surprise me but certainly shocked me and at first impression positively but it is strange. This photo is from portfolio Titelio too, as funny sea-gull and really improves that its creator has good skills in modify image and change their prime meaning to something else.

But this article is about those images that have some other meaning by some manipulations. They all have some different perspective then the originals and also shock me and even scared me. Man behind the desk with bulb instead head, it is neutral with it expression and simple says to me about ...

That is the funniest bird I found on DT by searching ‘birds isolated’ keywords, and it shocked me that this is a photo, of course it probably have been modified in some graphic program, this bird have pilot goggle on head and compass, there are not usual equipment of sea-gull. Maybe postal doves but not gull. That is the tip for Titelio to do such one.

Anyway this funny gull had inspirited me to search some others and this was next that shocked me by the simple expression. Cute little duck served on a plate and title of image Easter Food, that reminds me that we are the worst horrible animals on earth, but it is a very good joke.

Than all those rubber ...

Is it possible to do abstract photo when we know that we are photographing some subject with some form?

Those establishments are not matching the meaning of abstract art, but when artist take some shot and he do not explain to customer what was it, he could create some kind of abstract from other recognizable form that could be an abstract for customer.

Macros are nice examples of those photos. First photo is with Description from artist Staged photo to abstract theme it does not say anything about the subject and form of photo it just direct customer to right choice. Second one has description Computer Enhanced Photo - Abstract View of Train rack and it tells everything about the form and subject but for customer it could be something else that only ...
