Re: Rope
Susan, having spent a career surrounded by ropes I certainly appreciate this series.
You have captured the lighting well and I find the images interesting and pleasing.

Re: Rope
Almost abstract images ... and all the better for it.
Great vision to see the photographic possibilities and they have turned out very successfully.

Grahame - I'm glad you enjoyed them - thanks for viewing and commenting.
Donald - Thanks for your kind words.
I wasn't sure anyone else would see something of interest in these.

Re: Rope
I like #2 the best and would love to see it in B&W as it appears to be a good subject for that.

Re: Rope
The lighting and detail is very good. They might look nice in black and white.

Re: Rope
Hi Susan. I also like ropes. One thing I would try with all of these images is to create a small crop and go exploring. You might discover that you have some interesting images within your already interesting images. I think especially 3 might have some surprises for you

Re: Rope
Jack and Ali - thanks much for commenting and here you go with a monochrome treatment:

5.
6.
I think the last one might be a bit busy for monochrome - the different colors help to make the image more understandable...

Re: Rope
Hi Susan. I like these images in BW. I especially think it helps your first two images.

Re: Rope
Hi Susan,
Yup, I like #2 in B&W much better. It has a timeless look. Very nice.

Re: Rope
Hi Susan
I agree that the 3rd one is better in colour, but the other 2 are better in B&W. I never can get ropes to look the way I want, so was highly appreciative of your pics.

Re: Rope
Karm, Jack, and Pania - thanks - I'm glad the B&Ws are pleasing.
And thanks to Jack and Ali for the suggestion - it hadn't even occurred to me and it gave me a chance to play with my Silver Efex Pro software. I used the Antique Plate 1 preset for the brownish overtones that I thought went well with ropes.
