[Leica] IMGS: Depression +

[Jean-Michel Mertz]

I find it difficult to see differences in mood between this new bunch and the others. For sure, the new ones clearly show your empathy towards the people you're photographing, though you're not simply taking a picture, there's a genuine conversation going on there and one can feel it. Well, I do.
Also, there's no opposition between your colour and b&w pictures, the way you make us of colour is to me quite abstract because you create a distance between the viewer and the story that's unfolding. That applies to landscapes too - as if they were still lifes.

I believe there are images that carry a spark of the divine. Yours do.

PESO:

I've posted a bunch of new ones.  In these, I haven't lost the MM yet so I
have a lot comparing B&W and color.  They are very different, to me.  Not
better or worse for being monochrome or color but just different in
feeling.  The last one is one I had posted earlier but it fits in this
timeline:

and hit previous until you come to something you've seen before.

There is still too much pollen to go outside and it's only going to get
worse the first week in April so I'm stuck here at the computer for awhile.

I'd really appreciate your comments and criticisms.  It keeps me from going
crazy following politics on FB!!

Thanks,

Tina
