Take A Closer Look



Miriam Danar is an experienced street photographer who often enhances her work digitally, producing striking images, using a technique that I have not previously encountered. It is especially effective when added to images taken during or after a downpour.

The distorted light of New York street signs and neon lights shows a view of the city as seen through rain-covered glasses, the windows of taxis or otherworldly camera lenses.

The basic technique is relatively simple to master, as my first attempt at a 'Danargam' demonstrates, but a closer look at Miriam's work shows just how intricate the method can be, with each image taking hours of work to produce.

Please click on the picture links in the following posts to see the work at a greater magnification, where you will get a better understanding of the time and effort required to produce such work.
