“Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster...For when you gaze long into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.” Friedrich Nietzsche, influential German philosopher (1844-1900). Jenseits von Gut und Böse 1886 | Portrait by Edvard Munch 1906, Thielska Gallery

#Alphabetchallenge #WeekEForEphemeral Ephemeral light at Manchester Art Gallery

A photo taken a couple of years ago at Manchester Art Gallery just as I'd sat down with my coffee. I looked up and a beam of sunlight was shining through a tall shuttered window into the cafe.
Underneath the sash window was a round wooden table and a couple of chairs. On top of the table was a box full of cutlery and a table number.
Sunlight was shining onto the top of the table with the rest of the room in shadow

#BlueskyArtShow #Big Venice, July 2017. Lorenzo Quinn’s ‘Support’ structure, designed to symbolise both the fragility of human heritage and the existential threat of climate change. With our hands, we can save or destroy. #ECK #ClassicMono

Black and white photograph of Lorenzo Quinn's 'Support' sculpture, featuring giant white hands rising from the Venice Grand Canal to support the Ca' Sagredo Hotel. Quinn modelled the hands from that of his teenage son. The temporary structure was on display for about a year from May 2017 to 2018.

This impressive set design for *La traviata* at the 2026 #Bregenz Festival features a gigantic, shattered mirror. The 'Seebühne' in #LakeConstance is the world’s largest open-air theatre stage of its kind. More info in alt. #BlueSkyArtShow #big #Austria #photography #ECK #stunday

$The picture shows the monumental stage set at the Bregenz Festival for the opera *La traviata*. Key motifs and structure: The shattered giant mirror: The visual centre is formed by a gigantic, asymmetrical surface modelled on a circular, shattered mirror. The centre of the impact: a low-lying fixed point in the left-hand third forms the visual centre, from which deep cracks and fracture lines radiate outwards in a star-like pattern. The shards: Large, wedge-shaped fragments protrude in the upper section, whilst smaller shards pile up chaotically on top of one another in the foreground. Colour scheme: The surfaces shimmer in cool, light grey to whitish tones. The edges are set off in contrasting dark and greenish tones to imitate the thickness of real glass. Background and symbolism The metaphor: The seemingly imploding mirror, designed by Paolo Fantin, symbolises the inner turmoil and the fragile, illusory world of the main character, Violetta Valéry. The setting: The set stands on the world’s largest floating stage on Lake Constance, with the real sky and the surrounding water providing a natural contrast to the harsh geometry of the structure.$

With 30 minutes to go until the end of #palacesandgardens #childhood (around the same time as one side of one of these would take)… Hanging on a pub wall somewhere in the Midlands, I think. I took it so long ago, I can’t remember! Not a palace or garden but my childhood in a frame.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekDforDark #Streetscape #ClassicMono #Monochrome #Urban #StreetPhotography Gotta love a rain slicked London Mews in shadow and light ⛅ Into the Dark

A high-contrast monochrome photograph of a quiet London mews, where a broad swathe of deep shadow cuts diagonally across rain-darkened cobblestones before giving way to bright sunlight. The wet stones shimmer with silvery highlights, emphasising their uneven texture and leading the eye towards a pale townhouse at the end of the lane. A lone figure walks along the left-hand pavement beneath traditional lanterns, adding a quiet human presence to the still scene. Weathered brick façades, potted plants and tall windows frame the narrow street, while the dramatic interplay of light, shadow and reflection creates a striking, almost cinematic atmosphere.

Remembering springtime and my favorite flower. Magnolias are an ancient angiosperm, one of the first flowering plants to evolve into a vast classification of plant life. They retain their beauty to this day. We hold the key to their survival. #photography #ECK #flowers #bloomscrolling #conservation

I used Snapseed to convert initial images to BW, then worked with layers in Photoshop for joining the images into one. Three images were actually used. I cropped some of Rock's image at the top.
