My Photographic Life

Empty Chair

Posted by on Wednesday, September 10th, 2008

I was trailing after my group in Bali – which I always seemed to do since I would get distracted and get caught up taking pictures- when I ambled by this chair.

I paused and went back and took only one photo.

It’s one of my favorites of the over 800 pics I took that trip.

Here it is in Black and White- My husband says, “Oh no don’t even waste your time. It’s much better in color.” But I still kinda like it.

    SHEILA – I have to agree with your husband on this one. The beauty of that chair is its blue. It “feels” like it belongs in Bali near those beautiful blue waters and the boats you posted before. The B&W is nice, but my favorite is the colored picture.

    Dito, blue works better. When it’s black & white it gets lost in the pic.

    Love it in blue. The whole composition looks great – so many different textures. I can see why you like it so much.

    Have a great day!

    Kristin, that is what I was thinking too. It is the textures of the wall and the lace on the right that really makes you like the B&W somewhat, but it does nothing for the chair.

    Nice! I can see why it’s a favorite.

    How about leaving the chair blue and making everything else black and white? I bet that would look really cool. ;-)

    Although I love white and black photographs, I have to vote for the colored photograph here. Without the color this scene looks a bit drab, but then the color brings it to life.

    Hi Everyone- Ok you got me- I like the blue one too. I could make the chair just blue and the rest black and white. Good idea Annie!

    I really do like the color version. Most of the background it subdued enough to make the blue really pop.

    Dr. Cason,
    I am following you on Twitter (Hayden_Dell) and I happened onto your blog. I was floored to see that you are in Guam. I have been there many times as I lived on Saipan. Hafa Adai!
