Jason Connolly replied
So do I Zoe, so glad you love the series of these shots, thanks for the visit, it was well worth the climb I reckon..
digitalmidge
Oh, I was going to say that it reminds me a bit of one of those old MC Escher prints, you know where the stairs are all upside down and backwards depending on how you look at it?
Jason Connolly replied
I can’t say i have heard of him Zoe, but I know which pics you mean, they are like surrealism or eyepuzzles aren’t they?

Glad you find this a cool HDR, cheers Justin…

digitalmidge
Jason, very surreal, but also grounded a little in cubism and deStyl – do a net search of him, and you’ll see what I mean… ;-)
Jason Connolly replied
Hi Zoe
I printed this one out and showed a few work colleagues and they too think it reminds them also of the work of Escher.
When I shot it I wasn’t trying to recreate his style,I never even thought of his, to be honest, I’d never heard of him. I just saw the shot and decided that’s what I saw..
I’ll do a search on these artists and let you know what I think..
Prasad
Great perspective and presentation, Jason.
Jason Connolly replied
Thank you Prasad, really appreciate the fine visit my friend.
