Colours of Cobh

Cobh is being advertised as "Ireland's tidiest large town" as well as "one of the most beautiful small towns in Europe".  The cathedral, the many colourful buildings and an interesting seafront make this indeed a beautiful town to visit.  The kaleidoscope of buildings made a lasting impression on me.




What a privilege it was to visit Cobh for a few days at the end of August 2022!

Reflections

Image
Photos with reflections are often appealing or striking.  Experts recommend using reflections to change a straightforward photo into a much richer image. Are reflections so appealing because our minds are immediately fascinated by the similarity (or the incomplete similarity) between the subject(s) and the reflection? But then again, the subject that is reflected can be absent. Maybe it is our subconscious attraction to water - which is often the reflecting medium - that makes reflections appealing?

Sunflowers

Image
Sunflowers seem to be popular in art for a very long time and also in various cultures. The flower represents many positive motives (happiness, hope, love, etc) and evokes positive feelings. That is not surprising, for sunflowers are such beautiful flowers! Sunflowers - with their wide open faces - remind me of people: gorgeous in their youth, charming adults and captivating with a life fully lived. Click on the images to view them in full.

Textures

Image
"Texture" refers to the visual and touchable property of a surface.  In photographs textures are often one element of the composition. Texture could appeal to your imagination: how would it feel when touched?  It could also communicate feelings (emotions).   I am often fascinated by textures and then I try to capture the characteristics of that texture.
