Footpath from Richmond Hill

[Nigel Allan]

I sometimes try and see interesting pictures in things that others just pass by. The graphical nature of therailings for this footpath leading down to the Thames struck me as interesting for how they framed it and also their undulation.

It struck me that Sigmund Freud would have had some comments to make about this photograph and its potential symbolism. Comments in a discreet brown manila envelope please

Hi, Nigel,

I sometimes try and see interesting pictures in things that others just pass by. The graphical nature of therailings for this footpath leading down to the Thames struck me as interesting for how they framed it and also their undulation.

Actually, I think I would like it better without the central foreground pineappleoid phallus (or phalloid pineappleus).

Best regards,

Doug

I suppose I could have stood the other side of it, but where's the fun in that?

Oh, Indeed.

This version interests me most as we are lead from an interesting object right near us all the way to the distant woods. This, I'm sure would be a nice piece in an office where people have to wait a long time as one can really bring one's own imagination to it. I'd love to see it in color too and the entire post, exctly centered, but then I fuss too much! Give em something good and they always want more!

We could muse for hours with this: Who's with you, what happened, where does one go?

The meaning of the path is further discussed here to keep this thread moving.
