"semi contra jour" What does this mean? (I never was much good at Russian...
)Posted: Thu Jun 21, 2007 7:58 pmI love it. Gives me a giddy feeling looking at it, which is just what it should do! I like the way the arc shape of the carriages leads the eye and stands out as main focus rather than the spokes of the wheel.

Thats actually French, "contra jour" means against the day... or in English... "Into the sun"

Yeah, I knew it was French, but all I could understand was "contra" being "against", as for the rest...I majored in rugby league at high school...

(And thanks for asking what the French meant, ozimax!
