489 - Electric Ladyland III



This entry could have been “Give’em Enough Rope” after the 1978 Clash album. On Thursday (yes, I’m two days late, this is the entry for Thursday) I went to take some images of the church of the small village Selpritsch.

The images of the church were not particularly interesting, but in front of the church, there is a playground with this rope dangling from a tree. I took the image with the Sigma 70/2.8 at f2.8 and from fairly near. Thus the DOF.

This entry could have been “Give’em Enough Rope”, but instead we are back to the power lines. Taking images of power lines has become something of a project lately. It is part of an examination of the tensions between tradition and the effects of modern life. This is all really at the very beginning and even I don’t know exactly what direction it will take. Let’s see.

The Song of the Day is still “Have You Ever Been (to Electric Ladyland)” from Jimi Hendrix’ 1968 album “Electric Ladyland”.

Hmmmm.... Guess I should have read this first before writing my critical little essay for #486? You do hear a cacophony through your eyes... Synthesia?
