Deconstructed landscape

I can take away most things but I struggle to remove the colour.

Be careful of doing that Andy!

Here you would exsanguinite this particular picture. Unless there were other architectural motifs that disrupt the tranquility and somehow add more "bite" to the construction.

Thanks Paul, I've got a bit of a series forming.

I'm growing to like this style as I go.
I first tried it after I saw some images (from a train I believe) by Wolfgang Plattner which I really liked.
There does seem to be something calming yet questioning about it I think.
Familiar colours and forms but still a bit cryptic.

The colours you have here are almost commanding a 3D effect. Btw, that's not the third element here...your blurring is! :)

Really?

Thank god!
I thought the third element might elude me forever.

I agree about the 3D effect, interesting because it's all happening in camera, very, very little pp here.
remove some dust, that's it.

Looking good, Andy. Obviously these are defined by they're colour and i'm wondering how far you will take that.

Thanks Paul.

Despite the fact that these are impressionistic by nature, I'm trying to keep the colour as true as I know how.
Hopefully that gives the viewer some point of reference.

One of the aspects these photos will show in the long run I feel, is the infinitesimal and limitless colour, and shades of colour variances that can be gotten through different times of day and at varying exposures. Our earth and atmosphere has such a rich and limitless palette...

I can imagine that these images would look great all printed up together, with the lightest of the colour variances at the top graduating down to the darkest at the bottom...

So this would be a very tall column of horizontal colored sections? Yes that seems very bold and impressive!
