"Asymmetry"

On the first glance one would expect this place be symmetrical, but it just isnt, not all all. The wall on the left for sure, that's just how it is. But there are so many more things, the utility shaft hatch, the tiles, the lamp, random tiles not aligning. Its maddening. Its so far away from a laminar space as it could be but yet, in the first moment one would think it might be one (not really, the stairs are a pretty big tell no?). I actually came back to this place more than once and I am still not 100% happy with this shot, but I am not waiting for perfection. The lights on the ceiling look a bit like an exclamation mark by the way (:

Processed in DXO Photolab 7, DeepPRIME denoising. Cropped maybe 50% or so. RAW converted to Black and White.

Mixed feelings about DeepPRIME since it uses machine learning. Arguably any denoising is still modifying the original sensor data. Doing a comparison, the original and edited are nearly identical aside from the black and white conversion. My impression at the time of editing was that the DeepPRIME denoising result was nearer to the original digital grain structure than the other denoising algorithms. Feel free to comment with your opinions. At this point I prefer letting the camera do the processing when possible. Probably more information than anyone needs.

Sat for quite a while in front of the flower waiting for the bee to circle back around.

"Blue"

This is a slight 3:2 crop of the actual picture, on that day I was actually waiting for a friend for a meet up and was wandering a bit around the area because I was waaaay to early. I only had the 14mm in my pocket and this is what I got. I cannot really say what in this picture as so great, but for some reasons I enjoy the colours.

"Not a duck"

'What is the world against the continuity of a duck', this in the picture is actually not a duck but its not really a goose either. I had to look it up, but its an Egyptian goose (Alopochen aegyptiaca) which is apparently in the duck family (like geese or swans) and is, according to wikipedia a half-goose..whatever that means. I took this picture today on a morning walk around a small lake here in Stuttgart. Said goose is apparently kind of an invasive species and not liked by everyone. They tend to be more on the aggressive site and currently they have little ones, so there is that. But I like the picture I got from this individual just chilling in the fields.
