Went back to a favorite location of mine, and this place. A hidden treasure of sorts here in the city. Much more time will be spent here. This is an HDR for those who might ask.
This is the I-75 bridge that crosses the Maumee River here in Toledo. Did a little urban exploration in the Jeep and made it down to the concrete pylons. There is graffitti on every pylon and will take more time than I have available to photograph it all. Here is my favorite of them all.

Photography is more than just taking a picture and freezing the action, or leaving the shutter open. It is more than orchestrating the image with the stroke of a brush. Its the realization and explanation that reality is an isolated experience in which only a specific individual can comprehend during any given time period. - Your Truly!

Cool shot JJ. I quite like the creativity of that grafitti also. HDR's work very well as B&W quite often.
You didn't want this put in the B&W section?

Quite nicely done JJ. Like how you used a deep dof to keep all the artwork in focus right into the background. Really nice perspective, showing a lot of depth with shooting through all three pylons.
Reality is a nice place to visit, but I wouldn't want to live there!

MA and HBG, thanks. Im not sure why i didnt put it in the B&W section. It was a huge man made object, it was the first thing that came to my brain. Never even gave the black and white thread a thought. If it needs to be moved feel free to.

Cool shot, JJ. I always enjoy good graffiti and wonderful captures of it.

The little deer likes this one vs. the B&W version. Figured I would post it to see what the rest of you think. I had a hard time deciding myself.

A painter takes their vision and makes it a reality. A photographer takes reality and makes it their vision.

Selective colour those 3 green guys and their white fingers and you've won me
No need to move this ... it fits perfectly here ... even more now you've added a colour version.
