Bits and Pieces

2007.02.11















These were taken at a DeCordova Sculpture Park. Since the snow often covered parts of the sculptures, I selected bits and pieces to photograph. If nature could obscure some aspect of the sculpture —

Each sculpture feels organic—an outcropping of the place it occupies.

chipotle you've got a great ability for focusing on the parts as well as the whole. my eye doesn't work well that way. not yet, at least. it's nice to see how it can be done. two and nine speak to me this morning. and your conclusion is perfect.

dquixote Facinating...I see pieces, but not the whole. Excellent job of not taking a picture...it made me study the picture that much more to try and figure out what it was!

carmitage When I browsed my friends' pictures I saw saussages, since I was hungry I got close and discovered a set of very artistic pictures I wouldn't even have tought of framing in my camera !

photopoet If you look carefully at the last photograph you'll see a sculpture. I do need to get back and find out the artist's name.

maharba Before I read the caption, I thought that this series would be a good exhibit. There is a lot to study here.

patojejp amazing set

jjimson Great title and an equally great set. I too have so many such shots of bits and pieces, but until now thought it would only bore people to it up. Now I can pick up some tips from here. BTW, The last one is superb.

aggiechristine Very well executed idea - although somewhat abstract, each detail can exist without the entire form. I especially like #2 and 14.

crabalocker Great sense of line and shape, they work well together. # 9 is the one for me.
