Not Here 93 Posted December 28, 2014 The color of lighting is subjective and is sometimes a reflection of the photographer's presentation. In this case, as a viewer, I find it a tad dull and flat (realizing that may be all you had to work with). Regardless, I've performed a color correction just for discussion, see what you think of the attached image. I also cropped slightly to correct the corner voids left when the image was rotated. A very nice image that speaks to me of the loneliness of winter... Mike Link to comment
andresfaya 0 Posted December 28, 2014 I have to admit I like Mike's version better. The corners are distracting.For me the colour in the background is more distracting than anything else. A B&W conversion would work better for me.I also find the horizon line behind the flower somehow distracting. Maybe with a little shift of the camera the flower could be entirely over the horizon, but this would be a matter of taste. Link to comment
monahaukaas 1 Posted December 29, 2014 Thank's both of you for taking time for giving me constructive feedback. If I can find this flower again, today, I will try to take the shot one more time, or several times :) I am looking forward to that. I hope I manage to improve.The corner is a bit embarrasing. I must have posted the wrong version of the picture. The sky was grey and the light was flat. As Mike pointed out the color in the picture is flat. I am planning to retake the picture when the sun is rising, perhaps with some flash. I did not have a flash with me last time, now it's added to my standard equipment that I have with me. Andres I will try to convert this picture into black and white and see what happens. I have some versions of the picture without the yellow light. I thought it gave the picutre some color. The line in the background is chosen to give the flower bud contrast, else it's all white but if I get the opportunity I will experiement with placing the line, train track, in different places in the background.Then it's only to do it all :) Link to comment
monahaukaas 1 Posted December 29, 2014 I have now converted the picture into black and white. How I see it, the contrast should been stronger. I guess, use of flash, had helped and maybe a bit higher aperture ? Link to comment
