One More Blog: Week of October 6, 2024

A serene landscape photo taken from up high, of a river snaking through tall, deciduous trees and forests. In the foreground a tree stands with bold veinous branches like Medusa's hair, a perfect spot for an Eagle's nest.

Hello and welcome to another week of One More Blog. I’m Owl Eye and I’m happy to have you all along with us this week as we run through just a fraction of the amazing work that has been submitted over the past week on One More Stop. Let’s get to it!

Gallery Gems

Posted by Dave M in the gallery thread “Portraits of my House“

Lovely leading lines and crisscross patterns of blinds make for a stunning black and white photo from Dave M. This looks like the perfect place to get lost in a daydream.

Representing the sentiment that photography is in the eye of the photographer and not in the camera or gear, bingboys shares some cellphone photos that are giving some serious modern Ansel Adams vibes.

Posted by Drarm in the gallery thread “expressions. Ambrotype Self Portraits“

I encourage everyone reading to click the link below to Drarm’s collection of chemistry documentation by way of Ambrotypes. Haunting and raw self-portraits and process make for stunning art.

Posted by Another Fauxtographer in the gallery thread “Beam Me Up“

We were surprised with another stunning aurora borealis this week and Another Fauxtographer captured a wonderful, silhouetted train bridge beneath the colors of the aurora. To me this gives the feel of being at a movie theater the size of the open sky.

Posted by Emre T. in the gallery thread “Venice: Short Visit, Dream Like City“

Once again Emre brings us fantastic photos from their explorations of the world. This week during a Biennial visit to Venice, Italy, Emre decided to capture the dream-like nature of the city.

Posted by Peter in the gallery thread “Oil on canvas vol. 2“

A soft spot for me, graffiti on rusty metal. Bringing a new life to old, Patina’d metal. Geometry, color contrast, and atmosphere are making this a standout photo.
