Growing to the Sun

Most impressive close up, Michael! My sincere compliments! Cheers! PDE

Interesting picture, Michael! Creates the impression of volume and movement. Good in black and white. I like it! Bravo, Sincerely, Tatiana

Pierre and Tatiana, you may have guessed that this image is the result of compositing. Sometimes, this process is hit and miss. This time, though, I was happy with the result. Better still, I'm grateful that you liked it enough to spend your time providing feedback. - - My best always, michael

Hi Michael,

 

when viewing the thumbnail, I almost immediately liked the concept of this image. Opening it, that feeling came true. I think you have successfully created a world around this growing plant that reinforces the concept of growth through the rounded shapes in the background. One might even interpret them as egg-like shapes, adding another notion of development to the image. The B & W was a good choice. Kind regards, Vincent

Vincent, your rather comprehensive comments, aside from being positive, also serve as a lesson. Thanks so much for both. - - My best always, michael
