Big wheel

[Dave A]

Fall is my favorite time of the year. Even with all the bright and varied colors to be seen some things still seem better with less.
This is part of a 50' tall water wheel in a small town park. It was shut down for the coming winter.

Nice capture.

[Shadowman]

Nicely done.

[Mike Buckley]

Very nice perspective and conversion.

[Manfred M]

You've certainly found a great subject to "fill the frame" with. The image works quite nicely as a B&W.

[Wavelength]

Well done

[Dave A]

Thank you for the comments guys.

Great subject and well rendered, Dave. My preference would be quite a bit more contrast and a slight lessening of the highlights. Be great if you can return and keep experimenting. It's when you can't get back it can hurt ! JMTCW

The conversion to B/W made the shot here. I am not fond of the peeking of the leaves though...

I do agree Izzie. I couldn't get the shot without some trees in the background and I also thought about trying to clone them all out.

Rather than use a clone tool, I would first try painting over them using the adjacent color of the sky. The tones in the sky are so even I think that method would work just as well and faster.

Thanks Mike, I shall try that.
