Anything that you’ve shot that is essentially symmetrical will become somewhat evocative as a palindrome – especially if it’s French. This would make an incredible poster, since it’s basically two medium format negatives side by side (although they’re the same one). In other words, this would easily go to 10 x 10 feet.
In other words, when I have my exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum (after I’m long gone) this should be done as large as possible before grain shows up, and be at the center of the show. Then all around it, the show could be setup like an old fashioned French Salon, with prints all over the place, practically on top of each other, and a place for people to sit and eat and drink in the midst of it all.
Artists of any type would be admitted for free. Photography, even flash photography, would be welcome. And anyone with money would be charged a hefty fee. Poets Walk, should not be done large, but buried in a corner for only the most devout to find. And the floor would have plush rugs; windows would be covered with dusty velvet curtains with sashes. You get the idea. Oh, and it should be dusty, so that when the curtains are pulled open, you get shafts of dusty, twinkling light. And of course smoking will be welcome. If you have a problem with second hand smoke, you can go next door where the exhibit is shown on film or whatever recording device they’re using at the time.
Why don’t you try a few? Let me see what you come up with. The secret, if there is one, is to simply look at the image and imagine what it will look like, and how it will line up flipped.









Extraodinaire! Zis… how you say… blows zeh mind!

The image in the middle of the tree looks like a wizard or a fortune teller…and it appears as though his face is situated in the groin, or between the kneecaps actually, of Swamp Thing, who is in a seated position. Very groovy shot.
Extraordinaire!
See, this why I need the comment modifier.
Erica, the middle part reminds me of the Shroud of Turin. Really.
Oh man…you’re right! Now I’m gonna have nightmares.
