Replacing the Ear with a Rock and the Cliffside with an Achievable Wall

Love Brandt, especially this image: Click link below.

I especially like Tom Stappers' observation of what Bill Brandt said:

When the great Bill Brandt learned about the poem that Ralph Mills had written about one of his photographs (the famous “Ear on the Beach”,1957) he wrote back: “This is my favourite photograph, and I thought I knew the picture, but your poem has taught me to look at it quite differently. I am delighted.”

Been thinking a lot about interpretations of the greats whilst retaining your own individuality. You can't help influences. I strive still for my own little style.

Thankyou for your reflections and observations. This photograph has a denser/richer feel on the print. What you see on the computer screen and what I see on the print? Woah. Different. As you know from your own work. But hey, it's what we all see as we look through the prints we make and compare them with the web images.

Wonderful intuition, the boulder in the front leading you in to the opening into the sea
