fvurtltony ? its not a porno. the finality and contrast is beautiful.I think Jon nailed the assignment and really captured his surroundings. amongst the drab .....there is beauty up above.
Maybe shorter is sweeter. Maybe "this architecture of oppression"- though good -is unneccessary. If you've done a good job describing it (which you have) you don't have to tell them. Maybe end simply - "High above, three fluffy clouds hovered in a beautiful blue sky." ??
Beautiful writing Jon!
ReplyDeleteNot bad, mate not bad at all.
ReplyDeleteBUT, that last sentence seems very rushed.
Something like
"In stark contrast to the post-apocalyptic scene below, three clouds, soft looking, like a babies new hair, floated in a beautiful azure sky"
Just a thought.
Keep it up though mate. There's bank in what you are doing. Sanity too.

Hey Tony, haven't you heard that 'less is more' - Jon caught the image in a few words which is pure genius,

ReplyDeleteOk, ok, I get it. Short is sweet.
Being only 5'8", I always knew that.

ReplyDeleteA far cry from 'Kes'.
ReplyDeleteIs this a new form of Shakespeare?!
Take care. Terry B
"High above this architecture of oppression, three fluffy clouds hovered in a beautiful blue sky."
ReplyDeleteI think that is my favorite sentence out of the entire wonderfully visual lot of them.
I would like more information about this
