Happy Sunday friends, this is Lunar! Winter is on its way, and at least in Pittsburgh, feels like it’s started to come early. Dreary weather outside usually means less photos taken, but I do love the photos we get during this season, especially before Christmas decorations take over. That being said, let’s get into it.


Gallery Gems

A black and white photo of a snow heart surrounded by candles
Posted by Ezo in the gallery thread “Some things I liked, 11/10-11/16

What’s better than a heart of snow to ring in the season? How about one surrounded by flame, in this case candles. The irony the fragile heart surrounded by things that spell its demise really speak to me right now. Please check out Ezo’s Bluesky for some excellent photography posts!

Posted by TR.photo in the gallery thread “Spaces…

Perfect lighting, leading lines, great negative space, TR.photo did something genuinely perfect for me here. The post-modern(?) furniture design complement the photo’s color palette so well. I could gush forever, but instead I will just direct you to TR.photo’s Instagram for more.

Posted by tominabox1 in the gallery thread “Carry Every Day

The fact that I can feel the changing of the leaves and the chilling of the air from this photo really inspire me to get out and shoot despite the cold air. This feels like a lovely walk on a day that may be a little too cold to go on said walk. tom’s Instagram is full of great photos so please check it out.

A black and white photo of a radio tower in a city, with a slight double exposure and ghosting
Posted by Dave M in the gallery thread “the cusp of winter

Dave M’s photo feels like it belongs in a behind the scenes documentary for a post-apocalyptic film. The double exposure at the top of the radio tower provides an uneasy feel, and it really seems like it is messing with my head. Dave M has more trippy work to see at his website below!

A color photo of the bottom half of a person in a suit laying through a brick wall that has fallen
Posted by blue squares in the gallery thread “The Wall

The idea that blue squares got thrown through a wall, in some sort of comedic action sequence gives me a chuckle, but I also love the composition of this scene quite a bit! The lack of face adds a bit of mystery, and the damage looks fresh. Please see more of blue squares work in our server!
