Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 29, 2014 Marco, I lost a PSD file with good concept in order to prove that what you say now, ha! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 29, 2014 Dear Laura, One of the serious flaws of this picture I consider the imperfection of the balls, the reflection is overdone! When I tried to make a new PSD file of a metal ball I used real metal ball a took couple of pictures of it and since it was a very small ball the dust on it and other dirt make it unusable and they couldn't be removed with cleaning brush, dust blower, wiping all around with clean cloth...and you now reminded me how to make a perfect one! Thank you for your observation and your stimulating remarks! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 29, 2014 Dear Timothy, Thank you for your very encouraging in general comment! About the meaning see the comments of Michael Linder, he knows the meaning of each and every my picture even when I don't! PDE Link to comment
photo by patsy dunn 1 Posted March 29, 2014 Hi Pierre, Amazing creative work that only you could produce. I love the shadow's. As I have said many times it's always a wonder as to what you will create next. Excellent work!! Take care, Patsy Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 29, 2014 Thank you for feeding my vanity, Patsy! It's so good to hear your comments! PDE Link to comment
alfbailey 3 Posted March 30, 2014 I like the silhouetted tree, cloud and the ball bearings that seem to float and add a viscosity to the scene, a smooth movement, a liquidity and a sense of change. My only dislike is the placement of the foreground ball, it interferes with the separation of the tree and I find myself wishing it would shift to the right, but then maybe that was intentional . : - ) Surreal and superbly creative! Compliments Alf Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 30, 2014 Hey, Alf! Of course everything was intentional, but was it good, that's the question now and I will solve the problem now, it's 4.26 AM here and I won't go back to bed until the problem is solved! There is something awkward with its positioning and Marco noticed it and his conclusion was to take it away, when I took it away he said that the picture lost impact that way! Thank you for your keen eye critique, my friend! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 30, 2014 Here it is, but I was hurrying and changed the background and the foreground too! Ha! Link to comment
krpradu 125 Posted March 30, 2014 As usual you surprised us with original interesting composition that gives us time to reflect about it and each one imagination creates a story in his mind.I look to second one too you did after Alf opinion but as we know each one with his taste and way as objects are seen,so to me first one gives more impression of space and perspective even part of the tree is behind the ball.

Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 30, 2014 Oh, welcome Radu, long time no visit my place! It is a matter of balance we should care about, not anybody's personal taste and I also thought the balance was (is) wrong but in a hurry I made several other mistakes! Thank you for your precious visit and opinion! PDE Link to comment
Tina Karina 47 Posted March 30, 2014 Hi Pierre,You have a very interesting dream. Everything hangs in the air nothing holding on the ground. The balls looks like real, but dead tree looks like like your dream. You have brilliant ideas!Best regards, Tina Link to comment
alfbailey 3 Posted March 30, 2014 "Balance" Yes and you have addressed the issue perfectly with your revised version, whilst still retaining the impact! Cheers Pierre! Alf Link to comment
patrick_coombes 0 Posted March 30, 2014 Hello Pierre, Great composition as usual very creative mind. I did not read the other comments so as not to be influenced. My only problem is the tree, its base is too linear and no shadows. I rather like to see the tree floating also. Keep your creative mind flowing my friend, we enjoy it! take care.Patrick Link to comment
tamaramar 0 Posted March 30, 2014 I think the image is very balanced! The dream is odd, but pleasant: pinkish colours imply it. And flying metal balls do leave a lot of hope... Warm regards, Tamara p.s. I had a dream I left my D7000 on a potato field and when remembered - couldn't find it! That was a feeling! Link to comment
felixphoto 0 Posted March 30, 2014 Without dreaming there is no imagination and there is no art. Svaka čast na ideji i prezentaciji, Pero. Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 31, 2014 Thank you, Tina! I hoped to get your seven, ha! I think I hot at least six in this case! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 31, 2014 Thank you, Alf! I'm glad you're satisfied! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 31, 2014 Thank you, Patrick! I wish I could make a shadow for the tree, but it wouldn't be so easy as for the balls! Your remark is on its place! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 31, 2014 Thank you, Tamara! I know what is the feeling of loosing something similar to your D7000! PDE Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 31, 2014 Well said, Sreten! Nothing of art without dreaming! Dream is the basic! PDE Link to comment
jrickert 2 Posted March 31, 2014 Beautiful dreamy photograph, Pierre. I happen to like the tree. Wonderful floating spheres. It appears to me as if they are dancing around the tree. Well executed. Don't change a thing. Link to comment
Pierre Dumas 274 Posted March 31, 2014 You are right Janice! I won't change anything! Thanks for your clever advice! PDE Link to comment
