Luka - as you know from my original post I like the photo-journalistic
aspect of it... the helter-skelterness (ugh, someone is
going to get on me for that coinage) is intriguing - what I see in it
from a documentary perspective (yeah yeah, here we go with puns) is the
recording of what looks like an accident scene in the lower left corner
... and the vehicles akimbo elsewhere. anyway, I like it more each time
I look at it...

ah, i've been honored with a PDML-esque discussion. this, if nothing,
makes the posting of the photo in question, worthwhile :)
i do agree that the fact a photograph is based on reality in a certain
objective way is important. but, than again, i don't think it rules
out abstract photography. it's just, a work of art doesn't need a
history or a 'builders' manual' for one to be able to appreciate it,
and if some potential abstract photo does whatever one wants in an
abstract art form, than it is abstract. the fact you can trace it to
film and therefore 'original scene' is meaningless. similarly, finding
roots of pollock's paintings is also meaningless in respect to them
being abstract or not.

So do I, Luka... and a nice piece of photo-journalism... might like to see
a black and white conversion though.
At first i found it a bit jarring, but I do like the colors and geometry of
it.
