I agree, perfect symmetry. A slight hint of motion but more so...emotion.

We are little better than clairvoyant puppets at times petulant...a cryptic convergence of anatomy and anxiety, shadows of a departing divinity in a theater of incidental gestures.

And something else, I agree with what you called 'arithmetic chemical' reaction. it is arithmetic, perfect symmetry, new gates and shadows coming from everywhere, all clear.

Dear In Transit,
you must reveal the secret of your... flow to all of us... I want too!!
Oh, what is "i.e.MSP" as you said? I am really curious to find!
My "about" will emerge to you when it is time...if this ever happens.
Thank you for your kind words!

This viewer being a bit thick between his ears... and slow to rise... has a difficult time placing the capture with the 'About'... but be it as it may... the capture offers intrigue for the eye... and allows one to wander and wonder... towards the Romantic and beyond... with possible or rather probable i.e.MSP which has been coined for it is certainly 'arithmetic chemical' reaction of a very basic sort.

Awesome. I love the composition, the crop and especially the POF. To have her out of focus adds some mystery to the scene. Great mood. Very inspring. I would crop a bit from the left to get rid of the shadow. Good work! Carlheinz

how very intriguing..she is so like a child, hunched over her knees, adjusting her shoes, her toes turned in like a school girl, her hair parted in the middle and pinned back on each side, gleaming waves spill across her cheeks, skirt demurely perched just at the edge of her kneecaps...so touching, so childlike..until i get to the cigarette and i'm jolted right out of my own thought process...huh? what? but how?? i sputter...a cigarette????? lots of irony in this one, Mary...your written text notwithstanding which doesn't mean too much to me this time..the image is well done, the softness is fitting..i like it. kat~

Dear James,
thank you for your kind words. I have studied literature and I had this tendency from an early age. This, along with hard practice, makes an outcome which I try to improve not always agreeing with myself. Other people have this with mathematics (for which I am at a loss..(laughs)). You do the same with your images, they have an "expressive harmony" equal to writing , mathematics and other arts which use "layers" of words, images, figures or objects to create a harmonious effect, an oucome that has a certain meaning based on analogy.
I went further to my personal theories about the consistency of "reality" discovering these "layers" to everyday interactions of
real evets.
Example: 2 people argue next to a tree. Layers= 1. The one person
2.The other person
3.The tree
4. Anger (or other elements of inner self, hard to define.)
5. 6. etc refering to previous experiences, family and country ethics background etc
All layers form an arithmetic chemical outcome based on impressions.They are different for every person in every interaction. Most layers are invisible to the eye but real. Even a combination of colors is a layer. To dissolve negative elemets or impressions (which give birth to other layers) is a life goal. Dissolving them one can keep facts only, or the beauty of his choices of layers, which is his real inner self the way he wants it to be.
blue kisses,
Mary
(I just added "blue" to our interaction)

Mary, I love your writting, I wish that I could put my thoughts down as well as you. I do in my photography and art. I like this photo, it remines me of a dancer, a Isadora style.
Warmly, James
