Shape, Form, Texture, Light–for Lens Artists Challenge

21 Replies
Texture makes use of shape, form and light to create itself.
The simplest of objects can reflect the most intriguing of shapes.
Contrast between shape and form, backlit by light, can provide surprises. I never could figure out what was sticking out of this seagull’s head but it was attached! I had images of a confrontation with a porcupine.
Shapes need not be geometric and ordered to be intriguing.
Light can add an interesting aspect to what might otherwise have been an ordinay portrait

    A creative gallery, Judy. Yes, now you have me thinking about what is sticking out of the seagull’s head too? lol. I especially love the hand holing the dandelion, and the sand “art”. Are they from little bugs?

      On reviewing the photos, I juust realized that that dandelion photo was not one I took but one I downloaded from Unsplash.. So embarrassing. I’ve removed it. Obviously I loved it, too, but I always give attribution and never use “borrowed” photos in galleries..Strange because it looks exactly like my hand!

      Can’t figure it out. It looked like a porcupine quill–the sort they had in Africa–but I don’t think they have porcupines in Mexico. Maybe some underwater creature who drilled him as he dived down to grab a fish? After some research I’ve discovered there is a small tree-dwelling porcupine in Mexico but it doesn’t look like its quills are a large as this object was. Any guesses as to what it could be?
