In the Darkness

  周末顺带帮小成他们赶了个活,结果比较好,挺满意的样子。比较简单的事情,又回到学校时的水平,说透了主要是体力活。又想起当初带了八九个本科小朋友做网站的情形,那时候这些自己也不写,只做后台部分,有个同学非常强的,做得一手好flash。说白了,除了艺术设计,自己做图和做flash,做网站基本全是体力活。好在还在这里收拾自己的页面,代码还熟悉。
  小成挺神的,上次我问她,一年来都干啥了啊,结果她一直在考试,马上就要是什么注册公共设备师了,据说他们的考试非常壮观,大家都是拖着个拉杆箱进考场,然后把厚厚的书从考场地板一直堆到桌沿,考得那个热闹,大家满头大汗狂查各色设计规范,然后据此设计答题。她苦着个脸,说这个完全是折磨,不仅是脑力活,而且彻头彻尾还是个体力活。她很自豪地告诉我,去年把那些活见鬼的高数电子化学之类的基础课又考了个遍,我佩服死了,我早什么都不会了,感觉接近文盲啦。对于她这个什么师,我听了好几遍才明白过来,就是以后她们出图,非注册的就不能作设计师签字了,我问那签了字你有啥风险没?她想想说没啥,不象那些搞建筑结构的,会塌掉出人命,他们最多就经济损失,比如算错了搞得大家家里老给水淹啊,然后第二年把刚铺好的路又挖挖开重新换管道啊,等等之类。我说,好啊,原来天天挖路就是你们给搞的。
  最近主要事件就是,老姐带领老爸和的的去绍兴玩了,我很羡慕,当时我得考试。最近回去老姐颇神秘地拉我过去看角落两瓶绍兴黄酒:好酒啊,过年喝了它。好啊好啊,去年我们喝掉了一瓶本地特黄,温着在大冬天里喝,真是舒服。
  然后老姐又带老头小孩去广州玩了几天,我和老妈在家买菜吃饭睡觉,大家各得其所,都颇有成就感。
  老赛来上海看望apple和新生儿,大家一起跑出去喝了杯咖啡聊天,我们万变不离其宗地反复问他有啥story没,他只好爆料马来的前海军陆战队员YFC要结婚了,据说去庙里求日子,说是明年这时候。
  今天赶完活再到flickr上去欣赏照片,真是赏心悦目,B&W真好啊,分享如下:

  
  'Curl' by agata, as commented, I 'can't stay in my chair more when seeing this picture', either.

  这张看到,就象别人评的那样,‘忍不住要从椅子上跳起来了’,摧枯拉朽。
  她喜欢用很浓的黑色调,这个系列。我没有想到过这么浓的黑暗里能这么极致美好。
  这个系列都很美很喜欢。还非常喜欢这张:

  
  'To Late' by agata

  在blog里抄袭美图好比抄诗,都是极心情舒畅的事情。千万不要跳过以下链接:
  She seems very fond of deep dark effection, according to this set. I never thought such deep black can be so beautiful, see:
  In the Darkness by Agata
  
  -------------------
  Very intensive indeed. Reminds me of Karl Blossfeld (you know, one of my favourite photographers), though it is not so strict, symmetric and perfect, but sometimes mysterious, like the sharp toothed 'uncuddly' fruit ('jaws') or 'nature abstract'. Others are just a bit too dark for my taste, like 'in the shadows' or 'on a rainy morning'.

  She seems fond of extreme ends of gray scale, prefer very dark key or very light.
  O, now I understand Karl Blossfeld better. I remember at that time when you mentioned him and I checked the pictures and wondering: why it's so good, is it just a very strict picture? I forget when, but sometime recent before, I suddenly realize, yes, it's very solemn, concentrate and beautiful, it's not a dry scientific photo only. Very condensed efforts in it.

  I can understand agata's insisting of very dark picture somehow. Sometimes I also think the dark side is more subtle, more rich, if you try to balance it to a brighter hue, then all different, it's just another thing, and lost. But of course when you show such a picture, no, too dark, too dark, out of discussion, a failure. But next time, still allured by the darkness. Kind of addiction.
  I think she's trying to capture the very dusk feeling in the morning rain, the very faint mysterious hue in deep dark corner. Actually the two pictures are not failure, morning rain flower is very clear and sharp. But yes, 'in the darkness' is too thin, but amazingly, it's still very solid even with so little light.
