Pyramid of Cows

...

One of the fundamental arrangements of forms is the pyramid. Two objects at the base, a third behind, in the distance, or above.


Raphael's picture La Belle Jardiniere is a classic example.



The eye is drawn to forms arranged in a pyramid.

Anywhere.


A simple example: these cows in a field obligingly posing for this picture.

Ah, oui! The classic Pyramide de Vaches, by the underappreciated realist, Natouche.
Greetings from Paris, where the major decisions are which museum (Gustave Moreau for the nth time looks like a winner) and which restaurant (as does Le Bar a Huitres in Montparnasse).
cheers

Gosh, where've you been all this time?! Lols! so glad to have stumbled upon your blog. Now I understand things and stuff about taking pictures. Oh no, not a photographer at all. But I love taking pictures.. and so do my three daughters. No special equipment but just an ordinary digital camera and sometimes from their cellphones. :-) We're lucky sometimes to be able to come out with good ones... and fill our family album with it. Lols!

Thank you for putting up your blog, for sharing tips in such a simple wonderful way.

Have a good day. God bless you and your family.

Ellen

Color is a symbol for human being, significant for a person how they are thinking of, shining likes a crystal, we can not see the color, but it is beautiful because of its purity... Spectacular can feel from here.
