Thursday’s Special: Multitude
This photograph is a result of auditory impulses transmitted by music geniuses collectively known as Kraftwerk.
The theme for this Thursday’s Special is “Multitude”. It can be the masses (crowds) or multitude of just about anything (of animate or inanimate origin). It can even be a solitary (human) being with a multitude of worries drawn on his face. Get creative and have fun! I will be waiting for your links…..

??? at least I was able to guess (unsuccessfully 🙂 – toilet paper roll for example) so far some of your previous mysterious images. now I am completely clueless. intriguing image.

Fósforos!, no se me habría ocurrido nunca. El color es precioso.
Ya había visto que tienes otro en blanco y negro, creo que con mi cámara (una compacta) hay posibilidad de hacerlas así, pero aún no he probado.
Intentaré a ver qué me sale.
Buen fin de semana.

Para ti tambien. Tambien puedes convertir las fotos en blanco y negro luego en post tratamiento.

Creí que al convertirlas en post tratamiento se notaba, y era a eso a lo que te referías cuándo dices que no pueden tener restos de color, y que esas no las colgarás. Disculpa, pero solo soy un aprendiz de fotógrafo.
Se pueden convertir con Picasa? Es que estoy aprendiendo a usar ese programa.
Escribes muy bien el español.
No sabes cuánto me alegro de ello.
Muchas gracias.

Found you via Cardinal Guzman’s site, and was sucked right in by Kraftwerk. Thanks for that. 🙂 Anyway, thought I’d join in with this, a somewhat loose interpretation: http://www.pirancafe.com/2015/03/27/shawl-vendors-quito/

Interesting shot. At first glance, I thought they were matchstick heads after a bit of photoshopping.
