A breath of fresh air

For those of you paying close attention, you might have noticed that I had actually posted to this blog earlier today.Â Problem was that I was posting a lame shot, rather than something I had created with great care.Â Well, that’s just not right.Â So, I’ve deleted that post, and replaced it with the shot you see here, which is the one I had intended, since yesterday, to post for you all today.Â I can’t describe how amazing it was to stand in this room and just stare at the curtains billowing in the wind.Â It felt like that scene in the movie “America Beauty”, where the dude is filming the red plastic bag floating around in the air… absolute peace and beauty; a breath of fresh air.

Totally awesome image Jaques. I love the lighting and contrast between the curtains and the decay

Thanks, Chris. I really took my time with this one, masking in all the juicy bits from the individual brackets to give this one as much life as possible.

I knew from what you told that this shot would turn out to be great. You really outdid yourself with the composition and post-processing! The result is a pleasure to look at!

wonderful shot.

… until the phone rings! Nice contrast, the featherlight curtains and this horrible “room”.
