Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #295 'Blue Pathways'
'Blue Pathways'
This abstract photograph is about pathways of the mind. Well, to me it is. Maybe to you, it speaks from a different place. Sometimes, paths of the thought are not clear at all, and there are several routes to the same destination. Sometimes, it is only wishful thinking, sometimes we see the path right away and on some occasions, we spend days pondering over something. We were able to understand many things around us, solve many mysteries, come so far in this long run, only to find out that we don't know much about our own mind and its processes. Is it because we were too afraid to know the truth? We seem to be standing in the light of the grand force and not asking enough questions.
In the middle of a dark blue composition of deliberately reduced contrast, there are three distinct areas. All of them are different from one another. One to the right is almost completely white, the middle one is in mid-range bluish tonality, while the left one has quite a bit of contrast. That one appears to be a mixture of the previous two. They could be representing three different paths of thought or three paths leading to the same conclusion or three completely different thoughts, for that matter.
Shallow depth of field lets the focus rests on the left of the three areas. This is done to render it the most important element. It is the one in which the attributes of the previous two blend together, right? Most of the times, the right path is the one which takes into account all points of view, not a single one.
A true light of wisdom is achieved when a thinker finds a path uniting all the other ones.
Enjoy! :)

A true light of wisdom is achieved when a thinker finds a path uniting all the other ones. Beautiful and creative dear @velimir
this is a very perfect blue pathways of art.how you giving everyday very real post in your blog.just remarkable shots photography.. This is such a barrier to overcome which you do not need to exert physical efforts. These barriers are mental. In Buddhism, this is called insight. That is, to get to the truth, we begin to develop the thought. As the main idea develops, we overcome barriers and understand that earlier we were wrong. The first barrier is the darkest. Then comes the lighter and the last is the brightest. It's like the stages of growing up. At each stage, new ideas open up before you. You are developing. Overcome barriers. Sometimes there are exclamations, people who stayed in destva. They behave stupidly. As teenagers. Emotional degradation.thanks to sharing for your great post of art..my dear friend.. @velimir obviously you always doing great work... keep it up..may god bless you..
Sometimes, paths of the thought are not clear at all.
That's exactly what I was going to write about this image.
I saw it many times to understand what exactly it is.
At a first look, it seems to me a handle of the cup that is reflecting lights from three different paths with three different color combinations.
but when I look it again, it seems to be a door that is coated with this dark blue color and yes same lightening effect as the cup.
I was reading your article and got to read this beautiful ending lines.

Very true my friend!
I like abstractions for one simple reason. Thanks to abstractions, we can see different things. Abstractions develop imagination and reason. They make it more susceptible to unusual absorption and feedback. That is, astratracies are more suitable for creative people. Such people who see what others will not see. Today's abstraction perfectly complements this idea.
I see the "facet of the mind" in this photo. It looks like three separate elements of the mental barrier. This is such a barrier to overcome which you do not need to exert physical efforts. These barriers are mental. In Buddhism, this is called insight :) That is, to get to the truth, we begin to develop the thought. As the main idea develops, we overcome barriers and understand that earlier we were wrong. The first barrier is the darkest. Then comes the lighter and the last is the brightest. It's like the stages of growing up. At each stage, new ideas open up before you. You are developing. Overcome barriers. Sometimes there are exclamations, people who stayed in destva. They behave stupidly. As teenagers. Emotional degradation.
I hope I managed to open my mind :) Thanks, great photo
However, in reality the results of thought and the reasons presented are not necessarily always true.
True according to reality, meaning if the thought is really in accordance with reality. And so is "wrong does not match reality. So it can be concluded that the measure to determine a thought is right or wrong.
Basically, people can understand or know about a thing because of a notice or because someone is doing a contemplation of a thing. The results of his understanding are then triggered in a verdict. The action of a person in reaching a verdict is a series of actions from one person's decision to a new decision that seems to move from one decision to another.
Then the action of man with his body from one decision to another and this is called the way of thinking.
Abstract photographs are the greatest expression in the world of photography as it involves a great world of enigmas and meanings that can be deciphered by the brightest and most appreciative minds of the photography of one of the greatest arts that exists today, I congratulate you so I hope you have a good day I send you a hug from Venezuela
The medium tone light in the center pulls me in and has me wonder, what lies around the darker corner to the left or is the path to the right into the light the way I wish to go?
As someone who cannot help but construct narrative in my head when I view art, even abstract, I am imagining all sorts of floating worlds hidden around the pathways of this piece.
Well done, and the colour story is so alluring.
