Great perspective!

I mean, these are fantastic. I love it how despite the perspective reinvention and physical distortion, you still read the individual parts photographically;. Its only trying to see it "all in one" that it looks weird. Theres a great resonance between the formal symmetry of the architecture and the relaxed informality of the way the distortion has occurred.. These compositions draw you in, engage and activate the visual imagination and invite you to LOOK carefully; I like that quality. And they stand as thenselves, the distortion has as much credibility as the neo classical subject's
Great work, partly because its clever without trying too hard to be clever......

Is it processed image? Did you use "fish eye" for that shoot?
My great complements anyway! The used technique is interesting but the most important is the very artistic result!!!

Outstanding perspective! Thanks for the large view.

wonderful--you are so original , creative and clever!!!

Wow, thanks all of you for your nice compliments.
I am just picking up stitching spherical panoramas and I still have so much to learn. Everyone should check out Flickr user Sam Rohn - Location Scout, especially his 360 panoramas! They are vivid and technically flawless and his locations are to be envied by anyone!
ranatoliy, this image is very processed and did use a wide angle Canon 10-22 on 10mm. I shot it hand-held and stitched about 20 shots into a 360 panorama with Kolor Autopano. I took the result and experimented with distorting it various ways with the Flaming Pear Flexify 2 filter. Then I cropped one of those and this was the result. I highly recommend both Kolor Autopano and Flexify 2. Try Flexify as a Flickr search term to see all of the fun possibilities!
goldsmithexile, thanks for your comments and inspiration. Your engaging style and passion for art is something Flickr could use even more of!
j neuberger, I was thinking about your photos the other day when I was out shooting. When I shoot, I compulsively need to take a picture of literally everything is sight of where I am standing! Your work seems to me to be about finding beautiful forms and color in the details of things often through separating your subject from its larger context. Our styles are similarly analytical but different; where I often need to keep every piece, you seem to carefully sift out and keep only the right one.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Kuwait Art Photo Club (Post 1 Award 1), and we'd love to have this added to the group!

Super composition! my eyes feel like they are spinning down a drain. Mezmerizing.
memorycardfull (54 months ago | reply)
Thanks again! It is very pleasing to me as an artist to have one of my images so well received.
AL-Tubaiykh, Texas is a long way from Kuwait and I am flattered that you would have my image in your group. Your pool contains many beautiful photographs and I admire your groups emphasis on photography as art. Thank you for the invite!

This is cool...it has the feeling of the roof being pulled off.

i saw this a week or two ago, when you first uploaded it, and i really liked it then, but didn't quite know what to say, partly because i had a hard time even getting my head around the perspective. on this second visit, i think i can finally see how it goes together. it's a tour de force, and at the same time a really stunning image.
