Photographer’s Note

A huge roll of irrigation pipes that I found in the field, not far from the main road to Tiberias.
There were some of them there, just like my previous shot from the Negev Desert. But this time the pipes were there.
It was a late afternoon hour, as you can se by the long shadows.

Excellent catch. The light reinforces the structures and lines, only two but tonaly opposed colors, perfect tight crop. It looks like a spider's web (I would have titled it so). A very fine catch Yitzhak!

A fine geometrical play Yitzhak. Good angle and the center of the roll is placed in a nice of center position.

A fine comeback shot - (I could remember that previous shot) I like the graphics and the fine play with light and colour - very fine work Yitzhak - thanks.

Very nice composition Yitzhak.
This coulb be part of a geometry book!
Well done!

Aegean (2567) 2004-09-11 13:49

Impresive abstract shot...I love the colors and the lines of the composition...Very well done..

Georges (11185) 2004-09-11 14:21

De belles formes se degagent de cette prise avec en plus un cadrage qui place le centre du sujet sur une place importante de la photo.
Bravo Yitzhak

Very nice graphism, Yitzhak. A delightful ensemble of shapes and lines, as well as a good color combination. You did well handling the afternoon light for this contribution in your classical style, very nice.

Vagabond (5797) 2004-09-11 15:23

Interesting picture from a dumb subject. High definition and accurate exposition ..

dkeus31 (26365) 2004-09-11 17:16

very nice.
Circles, lines for the geometry, and complementary colors.

papagolf21 (56749) 2004-09-11 17:22

Intéressante composition, comme toujours Yitzhak, vous savez utiliser les objets pour les rendre vivants. Une belle transformation graphique.
Très bon travail et surtout très bien observé.
Interesting composition, as usually Yitzhak, you know how to use objects to make them alive. A beautiful graphic transformation.
Very good work and especially very well observed.

Nice close up Yitzhak, you have nice lines, curves and repetitive pattern, very well presented with good quality, good imagination here, I like those creative shot, good work.

orme (6746) 2004-09-12 2:10

A well framed shot, Yitzhak. The geometric patterns are excellent, as is the lighting. I like how the 'pipe' is fastened - by overlapping the 'spokes'. Well seen.

ChrisJ (70443) 2004-09-12 3:05

Excellent use of geometry in the design.

albiback (8506) 2004-09-12 3:47

A gold spiral on a blue wheel. all that it is necessary for an original and successful composition

Excellent composition, the centerline is straight, the of center placement, excellent light and colour + contrast, good sharp to.

joso (1786) 2004-09-12 5:56

Your play with structures, coloures, forms, different textures, light and shadow surprise me again and again
I like the non-frontal, non-central composition.
As usual - well seen, Yitzhak.

jhm (83352) 2004-09-12 12:41

I love the colours and the lines of the composition, curves and repetitive pattern, splendid Yitzhak, good job here!

Piotr (0) 2004-09-12 18:58

This picture reminds me spider web, excellent composed and framed, well done
Regards, piotr

femkevdh (2633) 2004-09-13 4:07

yeah, an industrial treat again!
Great shapes, lines, colors and strong composition.

cgrindahl (6109) 2004-09-13 19:51

I thought this looked familiar... I appreciate the graphism of the shot and the blue spokes really add much to the composition. The harsh light is evident in the blown out white edges of some spokes, but that doesn't reduce the appeal of the image, at least to my eye. This is desert after all and I don't doubt the sun is bright and temperature hot. Excellent work with a bold, yet simple border that matches the weight of the spokes of this reel. Well done.

Rockyboy (20582) 2004-09-14 16:09

Very nice composition of this wheel and very good colors too! Bravo!

dominique (11403) 2004-09-14 17:06

Beautiful work, as if a flower in photograph were taken, framing is once again perfect.

danielswalsh (13330) 2004-09-15 7:03

Great shot!

You have a really good eye spotting this naturally occurring abstract.
Nice colors, great clarity- and well framed.

Cheers!

bfly (5737) 2004-09-16 17:55

I missed this one Yitzhak..
I won't repeat my admiration about your designer eye in an engineer :)..but this is great; beautiful and very well calculated..what I want to do all the time too..
you really grow sabras out of the desert everytime..

IanSewell (566) 2004-11-27 2:24

Another beautiful industrial shot. The shadows really do add a lot. YOu have a great eye. I've never seen photos like these anywhere else.

Beauty in irrigation pipes... I never would have thought!

ninix (951) 2005-03-09 9:29

Very good picture with nice strucrtures and the right colourcombination.

Albrecht (11219) 2005-06-24 11:14

Hi Yizhak
I love these kind of details. Good compo of lines and circles. Well captured, greetings Albrecht

Jimbal (1221) 2005-06-24 11:59

Exactly the kind of photo that I like the most. At first sight you can't say what it is. An ordinary object becomes an abstraction. This picture is perfect (light, contrast, framing...)
Well done Yitzhak!

Exactement le genre de photo que j'aime le plus. Au premier regard on ne sait pas ce qu'on voit. Un objet ordinaire devient une abstraction. Cette image est parfaite (lumière, contrast, cadrage...)
Bien vu. Bravo Yitzhak!
