frode 0 Posted December 1, 2012 Withered and beautiful (to my eye that is). What about the image? Your thoughts are appreciated. Best wishes, Frode Link to comment
Christal1664882414 0 Posted December 2, 2012 Love the diagonal placement, but most of all the texture of the flowers (or pods?). Great background. I'm curious.....did you manipulate the background, or was it a cement surface? It has its own texture that makes a perfect backdrop, IMO. Link to comment
frode 0 Posted December 2, 2012 I appreciate your comment. Thank you! (It is really a dried artichoke flower bud) ;-)The background is a polished granite surface (actually a granite table top). It is out of focus due to a relatively large aperture, f/2.4 in this case. This also gave the slight vignetting that I think suits the photo.The only thing that is "manipulated" here is the picture's frame ;-) Link to comment
Bachir 0 Posted December 3, 2012 Frode,Well done! you've resuscitated these two beautiful artichokes. It is a nice shot, the background works well, perhaps a contrasty framing would have brought your subject even more ( but that's just an opinion ) still it's an excellent shot. Compliments, Link to comment
frode 0 Posted December 4, 2012 Thank you for your comment Bachir. Good idea about a more contrasty framing. I will investigate more into that. Link to comment
