Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #211 'Hiding Unimportant'
'Hiding Unimportant'
The snow fell over these papers or magazines so beautifully that it made me think of the notion of their unimportance. Imagine how many information is printed and delivered every day, not to be read at all. Imagine the vast machines printing all that sick amount of useless facts, raging commercials, lame offers, senseless debates and whatever else one finds within those sorry pages. A sane mind has no real reason to open and waste precious time on any of that. Reasonable. Then, the snow falls, transforming all that garbage into something beautiful. I feel like this is the first time that I see printed deliveries at their best. They are there only so that the snow can cover them and nobody needs to touch them or read the content. Keeping a mind clean from the overload of useless information is a boon that one can easily bestow upon oneself.
The composition of the photograph is central and closed. A very simple one with spacial depth given by the perspective of the corner and taken a step further by the shadow that divides the background into two parts. The white central area immediately grabs all of the attention and strikes with its simplicity. A little sense of frustration is created by the inability to see what is actually covered by the snow but it only contributes to the idea because it doesn't matter what's there. The upper view angle accentuates the insignificance.
Colour accents are red and blue lines. They humbly suggest that there is something, on both sides of the colour spectrum, covered in there but are also saying that it doesn't matter, at all. Everything we need to know is that all useless information are covered, gone and forgotten. Our mind is now free to roam its own spaces of beauty that will never be found in any printed trash they put in our mailboxes.
The same applies to TV and Internet. :D
Enjoy! :)

There is something that speak in his photos...dont know what, but surely it is interesting!
Great post. As funny as the beginning part sounded, i saw a great message there.
I will suggest an alternative title
Face the brutal truth and then get creative
😁😁
Feels good to see that you recognized a problem and began to uncover how best to deal with it.
I must say that you spend enough time training your brain to think positively, especially in situations that doesn't seem or look positive. I know you had reasons to detest the magazine, but its good that you found something good about the status of the magazine and that was the snow, like the title says"Hiding unimportant". I must say that it was sure hidden.
The major lesson i learnt from this is
If there is a problem, accept it, get creative, and work to find a solution
Great post @velimir. Thank you for the insightful posts.
Whether an information derived from the site or who have rules of journalism. On the other hand, when searching online information we often benefit from friends. Because we believe in friends, the cognitive filter in our brain becomes weak. We believe in what he shares. Especially if that friend we know honestly then we feel there is no need for information is fact or false. social to fertile ground for the spread of false news.
Thaks you ....
Another portion of food for the mind :) Indeed, we can say that a lot of senseless information perishes on paper. Unfortunately or not, paper as a carrier of information also loses its relevance. This is more a plus than a minus. After all, thanks to the transition to modern technology, the paper industry will go into the background. And this means that in the first place it will save more forests.
But on the other hand, to people like me, it's nice to hold a book in your hands and read it. In my opinion it's more pleasant than reading books from a tablet or laptop (not to mention smartphones). It has even been scientifically proven that information obtained from a book or other printed medium is assimilated and remembered better. Why? Because, as in the case with the color of the lamp - in the subconscious of people on generations so programmed. People have been studying books for centuries and that's why it was a habitual way of learning information.
The main moral of all this is getting rid of information noise. We often consume too much unnecessary information. In a natural way it clouds the brains and prevents thinking of the building.
Therefore, feed your brain only "useful food"
Thank you
Goodnight:)
The part of the composition you mention you focus attention on @velimir distracts me or some reason. What grabs my attention which is the wooden, truncated wall. It is uncomplicated. That I love. There is definitely some annoying blue and red color affixed to the transnational 'garbage mail' that bothers my senses.
Hehe, sure it does. But the first thing you see when you look at the photo is the white spot...only after you become aware of the background ;) Try and tell me if I m right!
Yes, you are right @velimir.
True that @velimir. So many beautiful trees are destroyed every day for "Worthless Ads" in the mail. I know that millions of trees are destroyed and the after mass that was created by them just ends up in the trash. What a waste of beautiful |Air Creating" trees. Thanks for sharing. @adsactly
This a clear example of injustice,
When your voice is being pressed due to some powerful people,
you are on the right way or not, that doesn't matter.
LIke these magazines, it took a lot of hard work to publish these papers and tons of information written on these, but here ice is more powerful and covering it.
I have discovered so much more beauty in this world, since I decided to go lighter on mainstream media. One of the things I like most about steemit is I have so much more control over my feed and fill it with art, photography, food, and poetry. Could you imagine if this was mainstream. What a world we would make. Great shot and pondering in your post. Thank you, velimer.
At first glance, I thought it's white pillow.
It's well said that not everybody is a photographer, though we all consider ourselves as photographer by having smart phones.
Beautifully clicked and described. :)
That's what we used to say about pens and writers ;) times are surely achanging :D
Oh actually the snow made them more nice looking and stable. Like a piece of antique that would stay there forever :) Nice shot!
