LAST ISSUE'S IMAGE (ISSUE
#52 )-
Whistling Ducks near the entrance of Wakodahatchee
Wetlands.
LAST ISSUE'S IMAGERY
Surprisingly, when viewing the photo on my
monitor, the whistling ducks, as well as the whole
scene, had an unreal quality. Sam even asked if it
was real. And, from our readers:
"Hard to accept as real! it looks like
a painting..."
"Truth is stranger than fiction, and Nature
can be odder than imagination. I've seen decoy ducks
that look "realer" than these two waterfowl.
I think it's the white rings around the eyes that
give them an unreal aspect."
Going with what seemed to be the theme,
I was thinking of creating some kind of conversation
on "reality" vs. "unreality"
for this issue. Then last night I received an e-mail
from a first-time respondent:
"The following is what I view in this photo.
Opposite viewpoints. Curiosity vs. contentment.
Taking the long view vs. being willing to accept
things as they are. Neither duck is looking at the
beautiful, peaceful view of the water which has
barely a ripple."
Very interesting! I loved the creative thinking
and reading what was expressed. Thus, with these
comments I invite you, if you wish, to revisit the
Whistling ducks photo and see what else might
come up for you.
Later this week, I will create a page on my web
site of other photos of whistling ducks . Then we
can decide if it's the duck or the camera magic
that gives the illusion of unreality.
