The name of this art photograph is: 'In-between'
This is a very strange photograph. I believe it appears fantastic, metaphysical if you like. It shows the depths of where we can venture with our minds. There are three distinct areas in the image. Notice the gradation between them. The top part shows a real looking and very interesting place with ordinary people. The bottom right part already portrays a surreal imagination with two dark ghostly figures standing above the blurred people. The bottom left is completely empty, etherous, maybe even a heavenly place with no entities but a lot of light.
Notice the light reflections working toward the idea, the way they lose their strength. Then the tree. It's right there in the middle for everyone to see but not many of us really notice its presence. Is it a tree of life? A semi-visible form of an eclipse in the middle of the image appears as if connecting those three worlds. The orange line between left and right bottom parts completely divides them, both in the physical realm and in thought.
This photograph was not composited in photoshop nor it's a double exposure. It was taken just as you see it. No, I'm not saying how exactly. Some things must remain secret, so that all those things between heavens and earth may stay mysterious, right?
Enjoy! :)

I thought this shot could only be done with water and the sky. It goes to show that the sky is the limit.. err. in this case, the ceiling. Nice work!
hehe its NOT the ceiling ;)
You are answering the question of just how much more creative can photography get. excellent work and posting. It takes a lot of energy and creativity. Thanks, appreciate it.
Yes, it does suck the energy out of a man but if not for the beauty...what would I use it for? :D Thank you for your comment! :)
Wow. Great picture there. You never disappoint. I like the way you categorized them all making a lot of sense. You really gave some thought to it and i it was worth it. I dont know how you managed to get that shot, but like you said, let lets let the sleeping dog lie and dont ask why its sleeping. The most important thing is that it was a great shot and we enjoyed. I can see why it was tagged "in-between"
I really like your choice of names for your photographs.
Thank you. I am very thankful for your insights on my work. Your comments always make sense! This is what I appreciate very much!
You welcomed. A good pic deserves a good comment
it seems like metaphysical world in the physical world ... there is a couple i think they are talking and lights black and white shade ... its all amazing and mysterious ... thanks for sharing this amazing picture ...
Very grateful for your kind comment! :)
love from pakistan :)
Interesting pic. I wasn't really curious, until I saw "this wasn't PS or a double exposure." That line itself made me study the photo more, and now I am really curious! Please PM and tell me how you did it?
I have been observing your post, as they always seem to be visible in the photography tag. I also enjoy photography, and have made my own series about my photos.
Followed! Keep up the good work, and STEEM ON!
;-)

O man!! I am going crazy to see this photograph. Because, as you say it is an original photograph. How is it possible? It is the best from how many photography I could seen. believe it.
thank you very much! :)))
most welcome
For sure its an amazing photo full of art and teaching, and may say, this can represent our life, Our body, our soul, and our spirit, all together on the same place connected. That inspire me. Great job. greetings from the south of world.
Greetings back! :) Very interesting line of thought! Thank you!
Nice art and interpretation..connects the present past and future. The first one represent the present life then the second one represent the past life and the last one with full of light represent the future. Thanks for sharing with us @velimir ..
My pleasure, as always!
Bas je interesantna slika..
Hvala ti najljepša! :)
Pisala sam noćas o Plavskom jezeru. Pogledaj moje sličice! Amaterske, ali mislim da nisu loše. Poslužilo me vreme. :)
It looks like it's a see through floor and that is 2 levels. Nice angle you captured.
;) maybe!
showed between image dimensions :)
hahaha yes!
What setup did you use to make this picture? The digital noice is pretty high which seriously affects the quality ot the image
It's not digital noise, really. I've put the grains in there. :D I use photoshop to set up the looks and feels. What I meant above was that I didn't composite the photo from a few photos.
Did you really put that digital noise after the fact, and on purpose?
I've never used digital noise as a stylistic element before, because it simply reduces the quality a lot and I only think of very few scenarios where it makes sense.
It is film grain really, not digital noise. ;) and yes.. I put it there!
This photo by you @velimir struck me as conundrum. Pardon me but I am in a confused state of mind. Don't know what to say about it and may be thats the beauty of it.
nice man! you re good there as long as the thought is positive ;)

good post
i am also like to photograph ... but i dont know anything about it.... your "In-between" concept is unique ....you just made me to think another point of view of photography .........
Excellent work! I'm impressed by the description of this picture and how a single shot can speak by itself so much and make us think and ask ourselves questions. I really love this mixture of three different worlds and how surreal it is.
beautiful pictures, greetings from venezuela.
Glass table and some refractive index luck :)
Wow the ghostly figures in the second image are creepy. Something that may not have been picked up with the natural eye. And I feel you on the third one very much a glimpse reaching and stretching, connecting to the etheric. You so perfectly captured different dimensions in this one. This post is my favortie of them all. It speaks to our life in the sense that sometimes for people to get the whole of what we are trying to say that is not said in words body language and actions, they must be able to also read between the lines. Bravo @velimir. I am now officially a fan. And Your are on my curation list up and coming. Thank you for all you do.
I adore this photograph and your commentary is electrifying. I think the space between the, "real" and the "projected" parts of the image tell us something about the relationship between mundane life and the quiet reverie of winter evenings and dreams. There's something so alive here-- something mysterious and elevating but without an essential component of danger.
What danger is there in falling if we were born with wings? Eh. Anyway. Good form mate! Keep dreaming! < 3
