Out of the Window

Wonderfully distorted view! =)

élégante photo ! on distingue le voilage ( le rideau...) , c'est bien réalisé !

ich mag das Muster der Glasscheibe. es macht das Bild zu einem verzauberten Blick

belle douceur, et joli graphisme

oh !! Que c'est beau , et bien réalisé , très créatif

Sieht aus, als säße dort hinten ein Papagei:) Sehr schön!

I really like this effect. The central fuchsia is so clear.

Super, Karen ! A beautiful view through !

Sweet!

Very well spotted Karen!

well seen, dreamy

I love both images, Karen! It is sweet to see those beautiful fushia flowers peeking into view!

Thanks, Val. Fuchsias are so dainty and pretty like little dancers.

Hi Karen,

I really like what you have achieved here! It is so clever using the distortion of the glass to make a frame for the flowers. I brilliant idea!!!!
Then we also get some wonderful images of the flowers. You must live in a very nice house!

Best Wishes and a good Sunday.

PS, I just found a whole lot of comments you had put on some of my older pictures. I don't know how I missed them at the time, but I did - Sorry! Anyway I hope I have suitably responded to them all now!

Well, we have a nice door anyway. ;-)

Thanks very much, Peter. I'm glad you got to see my earlier comments. No worries though, that happens to me too sometimes. :)

Love the PiP

Thanks, Gillian. It was just for reference. :))

Both are beautiful.
I prefer the main picture - so romantic.

Danke, Heide. That's nice that you think it's "romantic." :)

It's lovely because the panes distort so interestingly! Yes, focusing was quite "interesting" in this challenge, AF doesn't always do what one wants;-)

And I totally forgot the option of manual focus. Duh! :))

The glass pane certainly gives an interesting effect. Two lovely images, Karen.

Thanks, George!

Ein bewundernswerter Effekt

Danke, Reyk.

Wunderschönes Licht- und Schattenspiel, Karen.
Freundliche Grüße und einen angenehmen Sonntag

Danke, sea-herdorf.

Beautiful! I like it, how you focus through the window at the point and the extraordinary fitting music link too. :-)

Danke, AD AD. I'm glad you enjoyed the combination. :)

This works beautifully for the challenge, Karen. Love the effect of the shallow depth-of-field. Exquisite colours that are even more enhanced when viewing on black I say :-) A 5 star shot for sure! An ace musical match for 'Sight and Sound'. I didn't know the song was from "Indecent Proposal". I had forgotten about this film and I just found a clip from the film on YouTube. Surprising that Helen actually allowed me to watch the film :-)))

Thank you for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

Lol, Roger. :D I'm so glad Helen let you watch it. From what I can remember it was a good movie but so painful too. What a dilemma they had. It might be good to see again. I do like all the actors in it.

And thanks so much for such a nice compliment on my entry. It was fun and a little challenging this week. I never think to shoot through glass and it's kind of fun seeing the different effects.

They had a dilemma for sure!! Yes, it was a good movie and I think I would like to see it again. Charity shops here still have lots and lots and lots of DVD's for sale at rock bottom prices and I shall be keeping a look out for this film :-)

Definitely a good challenge this week and I am already thinking of other 'through the glass' subjects in Oxford :-)

Some of the "older" movies are so worth watching again. I don't like much of the new stuff cause it jumps around so much and I don't get a chance to focus on things. It's the new way of filming I guess.

I'm so glad that our last challenge is something you want to repeat. It isn't always that way. :))

Thanks, everybody for your kind comments!

The refraction of the light makes an interesting image into your garden.
