Lens Artists Photo Challenge – Cinematic

thanks to Sofia for hosting this week’s Lens Artists Photo Challenge https://photographias.wordpress.com/2025/04/26/lens-artists-challenge-346-cinematic/

Sofia explains that to capture a cinematic effect the photo may have: camera angles, bold and high-contrast colours, light, locations, just to name a few. The main objective is to take a shot that is part of a story, there’s mood and a sense of location; our image is but a snapshot of a much wider situation.

Not sure if I’ve met the brief but here is my interpretation of ‘cinematic’.

Monochrome Madness – April 22, 2025

thanks to Leanne Cole for hosting Monochrome Madness https://leannecole.com.au/monochrome-madness-will-a-rainforest-look-good-in-monochrome/

There is no particular theme this week so I’ve chosen to post photos of angles, both geometric and organic.

Easter at the Market This Week

…special bread and extra vendors

This week we brought out a recipe for bread that we haven’t made in several years….Timbit Paske. We slightly altered our fruit bread and added four Timbits when we shaped the dough.

There certainly was a lot of interest in this bread and it was mostly sold when I left the market an hour after the market opened.

Along with the regular vendors we had a few new merchants with special treats for Easter.

Textures in Art Through Lines, Dots and Swirls

For Tuesday Textures

Young Hee Sung has created implied textures in her paintings by using tiny dots, large swirls of colour and broken lines or dashes. Her show at the Assembly Hall in South Etobicoke is called Sunrise, Sunset.
