Here's the thing, it was only when I downloaded that I realised there was a bit of 'smooching' :) going on in the background, do I delete or do I make the call that a) they're in
Forrest Place the hub of the city and b) they're pretty far off and sideways on. I like the shot with the pile of
City of Perth Winter Arts magazines leaning up against the now familiar and mostly accepted
Grow Your Own sculpture by Perth born artist James Angus. I didn't linger, with a slight shift to the left I took the shot below keeping in mind the artist's concept of utilizing the 'cactus' as a 'lens to see the city with a different attitude' :) Haha! I dig it, do you? Happy Thursday, take care and stay safe.....
Oh, loving the sculpture and captures! I like them both and the 'smooching' adds a small/sweet human touch - as you say, they're so far off and sideways, anyway:) It almost looks like the pile of magazines is holding up that one cactus leg, haha.
ReplyDeleteYeah, we dig it, Mon Ami !
ReplyDeleteLove seeing new things in a shot afters :-)
Aloha
Oh, nice one, a bit of green in the city ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe first shot is intriguing.
I'm loving this sculpture! It certainly adds a some bright color to this street corner. I think you are at a sufficient distance to not invade the privacy of that young couple. Since they are smooching it up in public anyway, they can't really expect to escape the lens of the roving photographer.
ReplyDeleteThe 1st pic made me think of a giant spider! Then I saw the whole sculpture, and I like it, very joyful! and the picture too!
ReplyDeleteI too like this piece a lot, Grace. The couple is a fair distance away and it would be hard to recognize them so I wouldn't worry.
ReplyDeleteCrikey, they are smooching so far away that even I wouldn't delete them! This is FUN!
ReplyDeleteSingular green item! Arianna
ReplyDeleteThat is certainly a piece of urban art with attitude! Bright and beautiful and challenging!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Ciel!! Smooch away indeed and no need to delete!! Fun, fun, fun indeed!! Hope your week is going well, Grace! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIt is certainly modern.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,

Through the eye of the photographer .... a great perspective Grace. Smooching in the background .... that's life!
ReplyDeleteWhy even consider deleting? I don't get it, but it's a funky sculpture.
ReplyDeletePeculiar sculpture, but good shots!
ReplyDeleteNow that's fun!
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have notice the smooching unless you pointed it out. I think I prefer the second photo, any way.
ReplyDeletethese are beautiful... great captures of the people and the wonderful sculpture
ReplyDeleteI think the couple in the background makes the pic, Grace, non? :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat sculpture - it goes on the list, I guess!
Awesome modern art installation!I love this idea!

*** Hey, thanks for your kind words! :)
That's an interesting structure Grace. A bit too green for me. Is the stack of magazines by the leg placed there to ensure it doesn't blow away? In answer to your question on my last post I have the camera set to a lower shutter speed and then hold the camera as still as possible to capture the movement of the tram in the background. Best with a tripod.
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice piece of art and the addition of the magazins is very funny.
ReplyDeleteCool art. I like it! It looks it's put together like some sort of special Lego set. :)
ReplyDeleteI like this a lot. The color is wonderful. Re public smooching: I figure, if you've got the gall to smooch out where everyone can see you and I have a camera in hand, you're fair game! :) I shoot!
ReplyDeleteI dig it too.
ReplyDeleteA delight to read your 'take' on both of these images, Grace. They are eye-catching shots and there is more.....good fun and fair game :).
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it's mostly accepted now. It's fantastic!
ReplyDeletei was going to ask what those where leaning against the scuplture ... now i know ;)
