George Lucas calls his special effects company Industrial Light and Magic. We can do some of the same ourselves with a good DSLR and software. This was shot at mid-day in cloudless summer brilliance. I love how the curvature of the Arch stretches the sun's reflection over the whole south leg.
on dirait un eclair qui coupe en deux l'arche. ca rend tres bien
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I'd have recognised the arch, it looks like a windowless skyscraper with (as Olivier said)lightning!
ReplyDeleteNever thought that you could make so much interesting and amazing shots of a single arch. I'm astonished every time.
ReplyDeletesuperbe
ReplyDeletej'adore ce côté minimaliste
Great shot. As I didn't know it was the Arch I should think a kind of plane wing flying trough the air.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! One of the best arch shots I've seen.
ReplyDeletepretty spectacular.
ReplyDeleteThis would look stunning in black & white too I suspect.
ReplyDeleteYour creativity comes through in these Arch images. AND thanks for all your answers for my yesterday's post. Funny!

Are we still shooting for Sunday AM 7/29?
You've outdone yourself again Bob, I think the thing about shooting the same structure many times definitely inspires you to look for that different edge. This is a stunner, the sun flash (looks like a lightening strike)is fabulous.
ReplyDeleteIn answer to your question, the population of Perth is 2.25 million and growing every day!
Good one Bob
ReplyDeleteGreat shot, Bob.
ReplyDeleteThe Arch made the front page of one of our papers here a few days back. It was taken from the observation deck down to the ground, and you could see the shadow of the Arch on the lawn. Lots of people were resting in the shade... and out of the sun.
