Tremendous . I love the way you have captured the window blind folds echoing those being worn by those massive strong sculptures straining to hold up the window corbels….

  You are right, this time I tried to recreate the classic look of the traditional chemical photography, leaving my normal workflow temporarily aside.

The ten thousand things have their life, yet no one sees its roots, they have their comings forth, yet no one sees the gate.

  Before I had studied Zen for thirty years, I saw mountains as mountains,  and waters as waters.
   When I arrived at a more intimate knowledge, I came to the point where I saw that mountains are not mountains, and waters are not waters.
   But now that I have got its very substance I am at rest.
   For it’s just that I see mountains once again as mountains, and waters once again as waters.

Always interesting, marcelo. Love looking through the lens with you. My favorite is the one of the soft, white draperies floating down the windows, balanced on each side by those monumental concrete figures in concrete draperies.

The pictures are wonderful. I checked out the whole set, and discovered that my favorite was the chair by the window. There is something special about that one.
I also liked the guards, and the shoes. 🙂

      Although I make a living from photography, I consider myself a passionate and enthusiastic amateur.
      
      Keep always in mind that the aesthetic result of a picture depends more on your talent or creativity than on the technical knowledge or the gear you have.

He disfrutado de la serie como un enano,la foto de la cortina y la silla me parece de una belleza y de una simplicidad impresionante.
La foto de los zapatos en el escaparate me encanta (fotografiar zapatos es la últim chaladura que me ha dado xDDD )
Enhorabuena y muchas gracias por compartir.

  La foto de la cortina es una de las más “marcelo” de esta serie.

  Yo estoy con Hachege Marcelo, la instantánea de la silla es muy bella y parte de eso, de la sencillez, lo elegante de lo sencillo, vamos lo “Marcelo” (Sencillo, elegante y a la vez tremendamente evocador y melancólico)

    Aunque esta serie difiere un poco de las anteriores también está impregnada, quizás de forma más sútil, por el mismo sentimiento que me mueve a hacer todas las fotos.
    Recrear la sencillez lleva horas de estudio y práctica 🙂

  I tried to mimic the look of the B&W copies I used to make in my darkroom. I didn’t add “grain” because I wasn’t completely satisfied with the result.
