Less is more. Thinking maybe I can also get $1 000 000 for this image.

Sure Elsa .. just by selling a lot of them.

The original is rather small, perhaps about 80cm wide and has a larger width to height ratio (and is was taken on on film). Comparing it with his latest work, it is surprisingly unspectacular.

Sometimes it is not about the image as such being built in a minimalistic fashion, rather about the implied message. Here about exhibiting minimalistic brain power.

If you are going to torch your villa to claim insurance money, don't leave incrimination evidence at the burn site :D  (yes, taken on the site for an actual arson incidence in which the culprit did not get away. I wonder why?).

The herald of spring in my country, Tussilago farfara, captured in one of those endless evenings steeped  in the soft Nordic light. A view that makes one forget all about the long cold winters.

Reminded me a little of some of the Brittany beaches I was walking on last summer :-)

I have been away to Serbia and wasn't following NG that much.
I have so much catching up to do...
Once again, the images posted by all in this thread are fantastic!!!

Amazing shot Jakov. It has all the ingredients to make it strong, balanced, interesting and a great visual impact. You fool me on first view until I recognized the subject...I thought it was a macro shot of some clothe :)
