Playground 04

I was inspired by Linda McLellan (I am often inspired by Linda McLellan!) to get out and shoot at a local playground. There were fewer children around this playground than there were at Linda's ... but the weather conditions were a bit different, too. :-)

 

My focus wasn't so philosophical as Linda's. I was looking to shoot shadows and the contours in the snow ... but ended up finding great shadows on the snow, and not many contours.

 

Thoughts?

Any comments or ratings are appreciated! :-)

Hi Lou Ann,

 

I saw all 4 photos of this serie. I think, they are all good abstract photos, but for me, the best is this one. Because of shadows and spiral graphic effect of course. Best wishes.

Well spotted and taken......I like it a lot

Nice work.

I really like this. The snow creates the perfect backdrop for those beautiful shadows, and I really like the pattern and repetition. Although many would probably say (and maybe already did say--I didn't read all the comments) they would prefer this in b&w, I really like it in color because I think the green really pops against the white of the snow.

Good shot, spirals on snow. Bigger than life.

I like this too! Couple of thoughts; first crop the top a touch to remove that dark little blip right on the edge; and, second, you might consider a crop up from the bottom to where the snow smooths out and the green coil does not come right out of the corner. I also agree that a black and white version might be fun to try. Cheers! Chris

if not for the snow, i would accuse you of trespassing on my territory. :-) these are really nice Lou Ann. i love the shadows on the snow

SHADOWS!!! Of course you knew that I would like this one. The snow certainly does help to provide some good definition to the shadows and a vertical form of image is a must for this one. I like it!

Very nice. It remembers me my own here . Do you remember ?
