One of the original POTW's from way back in week 2. Loved the photo then, and love it now! Way to get those fingerprints off the glass to get a clear shot.

Many many thanks! First time I have won a photo competition. Lovely to be a member of such talented people and love this little corner of the internet.

Absolutely stunning, its always cool to see some creative illusions that blends in so well.

This is such a great photo. I love all the colors and flowing lines/curves. The over saturation really helps with the surreal vibes.

[-] jopepa@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Well said, I wouldn’t think of the word surreal for a photo typically but that exactly it.

I’d love to see what was on the screen the bulb is resting on.

Hyperreal might fit better

Thanks I just learned a new art genre

[-] morrowind@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Oh it's an art genre? I was just using it as a general adjective. What have you found?

[-] jopepa@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I just searched for images of hyper real photography -ai. High resolution, big colors and contrasts. Looks cool

That's really neat! I wonder what pattern the lights in the floor or ceiling were.

[-] BeardyGrumps@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Was only lit from below. It was a stock image from a duck duck go search - something like neon desktop background.

[-] JohnDClay@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Oh is it on a monitor? Cool!
