The Space That Exists Between Us.

I never would have guessed that mops have an intricate social life. Great in BW with lots of texture and contrast. Paul, this is total rock & roll!

Thank you so very kindly LisaG! You are always so very supportive of my work, massive hugs to you! :D

Ha! billyboy!! I love the way you express what you see! Way cool mate and thanks heaps! :D

Amazing that you’ve caught so much grit without making a mess. Awesome image from what could be so mundane. I really love the title as well.

What happened to mosesdesigns! LOL!!
Thanks so much Jason!! :D

Heheh, it was starting to feel strange people addressing me that way =)

When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought dogs’ paws or something. My next thought was backs of people’s heads, but I like billyboy’s idea better =D

LOL! Thanks mate! :)

They’ve just about come alive PLV, got so much character…love it! Very funny and clever and, as always, processed awesomely :)

nice shot Paul love the heavy contrast.

Wonderful – This is superb Paul, and where you shine – who would have thought a shot of mops, could be this interesting and say so much. Great mono work – Overall brilliance.

Thank you all so very kindly Louise, Ian, Georgi and Julie! :D

lovely shot – love the textures in this – fantastic black and white as always too :0)

Thank you so very much Deb! :D

Love the contrasty & gritty treatment, really highlights the great lines & textures. You have an amazing eye Paul, and a knack for placing common subjects in a less than usual context.

Thank you so very kindly Lumineux! :D

I suddenly feel like cleaning (and if you knew my woeful housekeeping skills you would realise how powerful that statement is!) and then going out to commit a crime… Or, maybe I want to commit a crime that involves cleaning products….?

Shit.

Note to self… cut down on the caffeine.

oh oh! I forgot to mention… the texture of that brick work is to die for, the black and white really does them justice.

You are amazing!
Now go and get that jar of caffeine, pour it into the sink and run the hot water!! LOL!
Thank you Rhana! :D

The title, and the image itself, reminds me of one of my favourite quotes…

“What matters most in life is not you, nor I, but the space between us”

Oh my god!.....they looked like big hairy hands in the thumb! And they are mops! Clever Paul…love the textures too ;)
