The Witnesses

WOW!!!

How do you continue to turn the everyday into something remarkable? Love your Smart approach ….....but this has an almost pointillist feel to it.

It’s extraordinary anyway you look at it :)

great great great composition, and true vanzella tones, lovely!

Ok… Someone has to do it…

Paul, that is ‘Reely’ impressive!

A Vanzella signature piece…

lol at Peter’s comment,,,, Wow Paul,,, love how you see the urban landscapes,,, well done

so PERFECT! your eye continues to amaze me

How did you resist the urge not to push that wheel LOL. I love the way you find that negative space and turn it into a masterpiece!! that sky looks painted, fantastic work PV.

Cool image that has a real painted feel.

Very surreal, love it!

Fabulous work, excellent composition and colours!

wow a scene out of some amazing ‘B’ movie that plays once late night and for ever in your head… great work Paul…..

Why on earth would a giant blue reel and a bunch of what look like bombs half buried be doing on a hill!! whatever the reason… I love asking the question! :D I really like how the shadow on one of the ‘bombs’ makes it look like theres a number 7 on it. And then the ‘witnesses’ add perspective and something very special.
Just surreal… yet everyday!! And of course I love it!!

Marvelous….........................for me the surreal quality of this image gives a timeless character and ambiance.

Where do you find these wonderful abstract works of art Paul. With the PVZ treatment, it looks so surreal …

Love this one.

Your work always bowls me over, Paul. Your landscapes appear to be a product of story books, but what stories they are! The questions they make me ask are probably stranger than the answers I’d get and the worst thing is I waste too much time trying to deconstruct the images rather than enjoy them for their surreal and engaging qualities….this one is going to keep me guessing for quite awhile, I think! Awesome work!!

Fabulous work – like an enormous bobbin st against the sky.

Outstanding Vanzella work,masterly treatment

Very cool

love it

fantastic

So random yet so compelling to gaze at! You make great works of art out of really odd stuff – great skills!

Simply sublime

the placement of the horizon really makes this sepcial, simply brilliant

as for the elements within the image who the hell knows ?
Oh Yeah Paul probably but is he telling ? ? ?

wonderful work Paul

Love ‘N’ Laughter Kriss

Fantastic Paul, love the scale and of course your fabulous signature treatment!! Awesome work!!

Really amazing image. My first thought was that those things on the right were missiles about to be ground to dust by that big wheel… Did you shoot this at the same time as this or did you go back to that plantation again?

Fascinating image Paul! everything, -the path, people, clouds & grass, brings the eye right to those what-the-heck-are-they giant objects. A ginormous reel and a collection of missiles? love this. It leaves us, like the people in the image, saying “what the heck?”. The answer being “I don’t know” but you make it look absolutely intriguing & fantastic!

Wow. What an eye you have.

love the colour in this..and the magritte feel to it ..especially the sky..awesome work…

Another amazing thought provoking image. Love the scale as well to this. Top shelf Paul.

Oh I love the scale of this and the touch of grunge…don’t know what it is but can’t help buying into it;)

They appear to be waiting for it to roll and mow down the pins…....classic style Paul, love the illustrative treatment on yet another superb page in your book.
Excellent image, gorgeous clouds and tones…...

No idea what this is but gee it’s compelling isn’t it? Add the Vanzella treatment & it’s fantastic….. surreal…. :D

Sensational image Paul, you should enter it into the Dali surreal competition.

fantastic work

this feels so surreal….brilliant shot babe

Super surreal sensational work!

I agree with Selle – that noise visible in the sky is different from your pictures’ usual sheen, but it works really well.

I like your processing…Great work Paul!

incredible image

Awesome contrast in size between the objects and the people. Wonderful leading line drawing one into the image! Makes one contemplate man vs industry… as always great processing!

Such odd elements. Landscape photography for sure but what landscape is this? Like out of a dream, yes that’s it… a dreamscape! A dreamscape. You have quite the eye maistro Vanzella!

Fantastic! I love this! :-)

you are so twisted.

This is great!! Is it too passe’ to use the idiomatic phrase, “Far Out?” ☺

Stunning! :)

Supa!

Oh oh oh!!! how coool is this? It’s like Dr Who

brilliant composition and perspective , wow

there’s so much about this i like .. the huge reel bellowing down to roll over the (unlucky) number 7 .. again, a brilliant capture and story all produced in true PV style.

Your work is unique and outstanding Paul.

Love to know what’s going through their minds…...
Fab treatment, you make the most out of every opportunity, your eyes must be everywhere when you travel !! Know that feeling. Love your style !

Beautiful work Paul. I like your reply to Globalphotos – I’m pretty much the same too..

Book me in for a road trip with you…..I wanna see some of these amazing things with my own eyes! :D

Great stuff Paul. Your pictures are always so interesting. This shot has great composition with wonderful color tone. I want your skillzzz! lol :D

appears to be a different version of ten pin bowling….of the most ginormous kind! ;]

as always impeccable work,it has all been written ,job well done Paul

You are so cool!!!!!!!!!!!
