[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
“Thousands of mysteries would be known / if that 'secret face' showed itself”
From The Book Of Birds, by ATTAR.

In one of his interviews great director Bergman says "Faces are our target,our object.The one who search for the truth he must look for the human faces."
My photos in this serie they are taken from different sources like tv, bilboards etc.
They are experimental photos and there are differences between these ones and the original ones.

Emrah,

Is this a photo of a tv screen? If so, without the context of the TV itself it is basically the same as taking credit for someone else's work.

The size is small and the exposure is off so that recovering detail is impossible.

Also, your note is stream-of-consciousness and doesn't help the viewer connect the dots between what you were hoping to achieve and what you actually did.

Sorry if this sounds a bit harsh, but this image struck me as sub-standard.

Emrah,
Are you really serious about photography? Your postings are really crap, taken from a TV screen or what. You are definitely in competition for the worst picture of July with Tex here. This flub really sucks.

Hello Emrah,
I'm not pretending to have understood what you wanted to convey here and with your entire series... It is hard to find the truth when the sun blinds your eyes and the other person wears sunglasses.
Said this, as faces have to be our target according to the great Bergman, why not focus still more on this face? At least the dark strip on the upper side of the photo is too much of a detraction, I think, and should have been cropped.
Just my personal opinion, of course. Feel free to (dis)agree ;o)
Erik

we salute you.

Hi Emrah,

I have to agree with Brian, you are definitely a master of 'conventionally regressive abstract photography', either that or I have slipped into the third dimension. Or of course you may just have posted this as a joke.
