Incense

Incense

I popped into a natural health store in Napa, California and happened to have my camera handy. I stumbled on this wide array of incense sticks and chose to shoot them for a texture and color play. I kind of liked the way it came out…a bit compartmentalized—but still rather cool to see it this way, yes?

    My daughter, 4 years old, loves this. She say, “Look at the rainbow colors, mommy? You see them?” She’s not up at this hour, she saw it sometime yesterday, though. If she had a favorites list this would be on it.

    Love the conceptual juxtaposition:
    Incense = tranquil, calm, soothing, sitting still.
    The bright “chemical” colours and the perspective of the lines = movement, excitement, eye popping.

    I love the way the red dominates the bottom left and the blue dominates top right. Nice contrast. And the strength of the colours is great. Nice shot!

    I think it is awsome! I love the very slight changes in tone.. and everything is compartmentalized these days…

    Can’t stand the stuff - too stinky - but this display is irresistable. I would have taken the shot, too! Beautifully colorful, and I LIKE the “compartmentalization”. It gives a geometric order to the image.

    I love the way the perspective + lighting creates the effect of the incense sticks moving. Um… what does “Night Queen” incense smell like?? :-)
