The name of this art photograph is: 'Inner Beauty'
Have you ever met a person whose eyes tell a beautiful story, once you've looked deeply into them? A person for whom you could immediately tell that their kind spirit does not belong to this harsh world? While I was walking in the city on today's sunny New Year's morning, I found this afterfeather hanging on an old building's wall. It made me think of people whose inner beauty affects everyone around them. The ones who never leave anyone indifferent.
The 'artistic' approach used to build this wall immediately caught my eye, therefore I took advantage of the strong sidelight coming from the right side to create the strong plasticity in the chiaroscuro style. The limited choice of colours, the very light green toward the sides and the light coral area in the middle, works very well with the overall tonality and supports the general idea. The whiteness of the main element pushes the feather forward and suggests its uniqueness. Even the colour of the wall, under the feather, is lighter than anywhere else.
The soft, fluffy, gentle afterfeather is juxtaposed to the rough wall's structure. It is a metaphor, a kind soul surrounded by the harsh world. The long shadow which the feater is casting across the entire frame is just like when a kind charismatic person spills its inner beauty over other people, gently and unobtrusively. The feather found its place in the wall's world, even though it doesn't belong there. It has a nice and protected spot in this photograph, one that each kind person deserves.
In January we usually have snow, slush and grey skies in Zagreb. This winter is a warm one. Some scientists say that the global warming is on and quickly approaching, others say that Europe will become cold because of the changing climate's influence on the major ocean currents. Before that happens, I feel very thankful for having several hours of the sun on my face on a winter day.
Did that feather just move? :D
Enjoy! :)

Your eyes can definitely see something others can't see. You always make low lighting and contrast work for you while typically, people like bright, saturated photos. Nice work!

Thank you for this comment @hiroyamagishi There is a whole theory about colours in art. What you pointed out is very correct. Majority of people prefer bright saturated colours while not so many appreciate subtle use. The theory also suggests that the higher one's understanding of colours goes, the less coluour saturation the person prefers. ;)

Well, that feather moved, it moved something in my heart :)
The photo reminds me the famous picture of the first footprint of man on the moon, the composition and the abstract of the wall's material is very unearthly - and it just popped up my mind.
I think that the picture of the footprint emits just the message you found in the feather in your lovely picture, but here the main object is the depression in the earth and not an object situated in the frame, but here the imprint itself is out of the frame.
it all coveys the same message you found - the foot of the man on the man makes me feel hope and happiness as I understand the heights man can achieve, and that foot reminds you that on the cold, far moon - there was a kind and brave men that managed to do the unbelievable.
there is a difference though, in your picture the message is more of softness and warmth, and the picture of the footprint on the moon have a message of power and conquer. I guess that both of this qualities are needed, each in it's own time - and they do not contradict. maybe your picture is more whole since it conveys both the message of power alluded from the resemblance to the foot imprint, yet has the feather to soften the picture and express happiness and beauty.

The white bit of fluff, or feather... but when I first saw it, I swear it looked like some rare white moth or butterfly, complete with two tufts that could easily be antennae. The contrast with the hard, rough wall is palpable.

Excellent photography, I like the way the feather´s shadow creates a projection along the ground. Developing a contrast that catchs the eye, keeping it focused in the whole image, looking for more small details that can give even more importance to the main element.
