    Myself, I wondered what they were. Thought they might be close ups of a closed eye...

    As far as influence, though, I didn't connect that photo to the orbit talk at all, and I took it three weeks ago.
    I see. It is interesting how a close up of something or removing the background can give one a sense of the unexpected.

    This all brings to my mind Minor White's words: " "One should photograph things not only for what they are, but also for what else they are."

    That looks like a tiny hand at the bottom of the picture of the leaf.

    Its the curve of the road that is brought out and catches my attention. I wonder how the light is produced? It reaches the buildings which are also illuminated.

    The streaked light are the cars (this is a long exposure),and there are many street lights to light the buildings

    Yes, I thought as much, again a nice idea. I didn't know the headlights of cars would show up like that so clearly.

    It reminds me a bit of the Bay of Rio de Janeiro in it's roundness. But here you don't seem to have those big grey skyscrapers.
