With this photo I was attemping to make something more interesting out of something less interesting. Wondering if it might appeal to anyone else? Let noise be your friend:-)

Both very nice, I like the simple compositions.

Very nice images Sam, I would prefer the lovely fall colors though if I had to choose

I find the first image very intriguing. The diagonals create tension, the patterns hold our attention, the ambiguity makes us wonder.

Wow Kevin, great translation! Thanks a bunch, glad you like it.

It works for me, Sam. It is the variation in the density of the shadows that raises it above a simple pattern.

Thanks Greg - that's good to know. - Sam

I agree with Kevin's assessment too. Darn! Now I feel the tension. Anyway, both works for me. Very simple.

Thanks Izzie - sorry for the tension, especially this time of year. - Best regards

It's OK...I am not the only one...so I am relaxing a bit before the big days coming...hope others too. It is going to be fun.

Not sure about the first image Sam, but I do like the second, very nice composition... different from the usual

[JohnRostron]

I do like the abstract effect of #1. I am intrigued by how the wave effect originated. Was it the effect of wind? If it was in the UK, it might have been because of an underlying old ridge-and-furrow system.

Well Matt you made me laugh regarding the first image. You are so polite. :-) Thanks for your comments and viewing. Best regards - Sam

Wow, wonder how you got the idea? But I think you turned a quite ordinary shot into something special. Congrats

Hi John, I was not sure for a while today but just a little while ago it became clear. As the sun sets low to the horizon the shadows from midsized eastern cedar trees are cast upon the field given it the wavy appearance. I am glad you like the effect. Best regards - Sam

Thanks - I just had a feeling something was there. Thank you for the complements. Best regards - Sam
