ku # 538 ~ a return to "real" ku (?)

Late autumn color • click to embiggenIt has been opined on on yesterday's entry by Mauro and Matt that "... you have changed, somewhat, (your) direction in your Image making. It seems that you are looking more to effects." and, "... your images seem a little "different" lately. Still Hobsonian in subject, but a little different in treatment".

Ignoring my new learning curve BW pictures, I'm not sure how to respond to that other than to say that my I am making pictures in exactly the same manner as I been doing so for the past 5-6 years - including equipment and the vision thing. My post-picturing processing is also identical to that of the same period of time. Really. No changes whatsoever in either approach.

IMO, what is different about many of the pictures from the past month or so is that this autumn I have been a little more taken with some of the unusually spectacular fall color that has been in ample evidence. So, it's reasonable to say that many of these recent pictures have been (for me) rather untypically colorific.

And, it's also worth mentioning that I am finding myself increasingly more drawn to elements of humankind when I am out and about making pictures. I'm not entirely certain, but that may simply be due to the fact that lately I haven't been spending much time in the wilderness. My focus has been elsewhere for the past month or two - a situation that I hope is soon to change.

In any event, I would be extremely interested in reading any thoughts the rest of you might have re: the comments from Mauro and Matt.

And, FYI, if we are known by the company we keep, check this out - You'll have to wait for the 10th spread to see what I'm talking about.

PS the wife and I are off to Montreal to celebrate our anniversary - see you all again on Sunday afternoon.
