Is someone rushing by? Now you see him now--or do you see him? This sculpture that we saw in the outdoor sculpture exhibit at Maryhill Museum was designed to create an image of motion. I did not realize how well it succeeded till I looked at the picture above.
A different angle and a closer shot show how it was done.
Sometimes you see a perfect Odd Shot on a blog that is not participating with us. I want to share one I saw yesterday--stop over at Victoria Daily Photo.
We are out and about. Internet connection tonight? Maybe, maybe not. The campground has it in season, but we are off season, so it may not be available. I will visit when I get a chance.
In the first shot I thought th figure was made of glass - never thought of metal. Some artist - odd shot without a camera!

These shots are so intriguing! Odd shot within an odd shot! Like wheels within wheels! Great capture!

That's incredible! Whoever had that idea is very creative, and I love that first shot of yours.
ReplyDeleteThe artist is a very resourceful one. Quite incredible lesson in perception.
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant. It looks like a double exposure until you look closely. Excellent.

What an amazing sculpture! I've never seen anything like it. Love the illusion. Thanks so much for sharing this one.
ReplyDeleteMine's up too, though my mystery man is not nearly so sophisticated.

Oh wow, that's an awesome sculpture! And it's fabulous that you caught it 'in motion.' Fantastic!

I love Maryhill, Mrs. Snapper turned me on to it and we've been there a few times (it's near her family). I don't remember this sculpture though so maybe it's new.
ReplyDeleteMy Oddshot is up now over at GDP.
Cheers!
What a neat sculpture -- that's one I could look at many times and always see something a little different!
ReplyDeleteThe 1st shot really is odd, Katney. I thought maybe it was a ghost or an odd shaped person walking really fast! Great job on this one. Mine is up now also.
ReplyDeleteThat must be new as i don't remember seeing that when we stopped there a few yrs ago.
ReplyDeleteThe outdoor sculpture exhibit changes every year.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I'd love to participate in oddshots but since I've retired I find I have a violent reaction to anything smacking of regularity. I can't even handle the once a month CDP theme days!
ReplyDeleteI love this sculpture. Even in your photo it looks like it's moving.
