It does.
It conveys a lot more than tranquility -- shape, texture, warmth and simplicity. I do wonder if it would benefit from applying LCE to the subject.
It definately works for me. Great shot.
Thank you John. I appreciate your feedback. Regards...
Yes.
Hi Otávio,
It does - looks very nice full screen (although the border extends beyond my 1080 tall monitor a bit)
I wondered about a horizontal flip?
Really nice, Otavio.
I supersized it to look at the detail, and found I really liked it that way (tightly cropped) as well.
Mike, thanks for your feedback. I will try a LCE applied to the subject, as sugested! Cheers...
Thanks, Paul!
Thanks Otávio, I prefer that - but I can't really say why*, I just know certain things look 'better' one way round to the other.
* Perhaps because I read left to right, my brain accepts that if my eyes scan a picture like that, this direction is more streamlined
Is there anyone here that reads right to left?
Which way round 'feels' better to them I wonder?
Cheers,
Hi Maggie. Thanks for your feedback. By the way, I noted you're from Chicago, where I spent a period in the past. It is a wonderful city and I have the best memories from that period (although it was business and not vacation )
Kindest regards...
I would normally agree the flip was needed due to the stem placement. However in this instance I am not sure it matters and works either way. In the original I had no problem reading left to right as the center tips flowed directly in line with the far left bottom corner and my eye is drawn to the brightness anyway.
I think here it will be more personal preference and could go either way more so than normal.
LOL...this is a possibility, Dave ("Perhaps because you read left to right"). On the other hand, when I look at the flipped version, although I like it, I can not avoid recalling the place and the way the plant was when I shot it (right to left). It is like if my brain was screaming to me: BAZZINGA!
Thanks Kevin. I will check a tighter crop. Cheers...
I like it a lot, both ways. Simple, uncluttered... nicely done.
Hello, Joe, and many thanks for your feedback!
Regards...
