No real estate agent would like this photo. It doesn’t show off the house. No curb appeal! And what’s with the trees!?
Sorry, sir/madam, this picture is not about the house. It’s not even about Halloween.
Well, what then!!! –It’s not about anything.–Sound of doors slamming.
This is the last of three frames I took of this scene. The first two have too much context. Then I saw the juxtaposition of the straight vertical trees and the pumpkins marching horizontally. Click.
I saw an image, a play of lines and dots.
Here’s the first shot, rejected, due to too much information/illustration.

Finally coming up for air after the Biden win (although disappointing results down ballot). For the first time in a long time I can think of something other than the dreadful Orange Monster who with any luck will soon be in jail.
I’m catching up on your posts and with this one was reminded of Ellsworth Kelly’s early works in Paris where he was inspired by the shapes between the trees along the Seine. After scouring the web I could only find this example but it makes the point:
This is a collage titled Study for Ormesson and dated 1950 22” x 59″

Thanks for the Ellsworth Kelly reference. He opens up the cranium and lets in a breeze, doesn’t he.
