Hudonography by Hudon

Out by Mt Adams sometime this winter.

I don't know if there is any emotion here but I sure do like the textures and shapes.

A lot to look at and study... that's for sure.. wonder if the top could be lightened a little.?

. I like the shapes also. And the thing that makes this 'freaky' for me is, at first i thought it was a window frame pane on the right, just leaning up against the wall, then you start looking and realize the door doesnt fit the window frame but everything else fits the door. Kinna cool. I like it.

This is cool! I had to stare a while to even understand what I was looking at...then I discovered the door. I like all the different squares found throughout the photograph

Very cool! Thanks everyone for helping me find the door. This photo is a teaser with all its interconnecting, repeating shapes. Love it. A perfect Hudonograph taken by the Master, himself.

Hey Marky. I like this one, but I like it even more with a few changes. First, like Ned said...lighten the top. Then saturate the reds a tad more...then finally a crop off of the right side. Match the spacing of the vert line on the other side of the image. This will put that window in the middle of the frame.

Like this? (another shot entirely, actually)

This is "Hudoniconic" and I feel a strong emotional connection spanning past and present in the fuel tank considering the price of liquid gold lately. The garden hose employed as a fuel line tells a story of it's own. Thanks for the lesson Mark!

Mark, I like the second shot the best. The two sides are more visually balanced. I can't put my finger on it, but the 1st shot has an older photograph feel that I like. My preference would be to use the composition of the second with the lower light, contrasty nature of the first. It sure is a feast for the eyes, certainly in the familiar "Hudon" style.

Thanks for all the comments.

I printed the second one last night and both Peggy and Ellen loved it. I may mat and frame it.

The second one has more mood. The highlights are just on the brink of blown out, and that gives it a harsher tone that provides a more appropriate mood for the scene... IMHO.

That one little spot in the upper left, eh? In the print that area is fine.

I love those old windows and abandoned houses. The problem is that I never succeeded in finding a good captivating shot. I wonder if b/w should not be used in such cases. Color seems to kill the spirit...

Sweet shot, Mark. Very unique and the lines and textures make it interesting to look at for a long time....

And what, pray tell, is "Hudonography"?

Darren's name for photographs of old walls, windows and doors that I tend to take photos of.

Nice Mark. I think another interesting shot would be of just the tank, door, and window, so that the only snow is what's on the tank.
