Sorry I didn't get to this earlier Anil, this shot is a composite of seven different photographs in addition to a lot of photoshop layering, warping and filters. Thanks for you continued support and comments.

 

Tim

Happy New Year Ellen and may GOD bless you and keep you in HIS ever-loving arms forever.

 

This is my favorite photo from your flight collection; it's so spiritual, the filtered light, spread of the wings and effortless sojourn of the gull remain indelible in my memory.

 

Tim

Beautiful!

Thank You Dimf; the gull seemed perfectly at ease and sat there on top of the statue's head for almost five minutes.

 

 

Thanks very kindly Will; sorry I just got back to your complement.

 

Take care,

 

Tim

Thanks Ellen; this, to say the least, is a very interesting tree---casting spactacular shadows and creating a symphony linear qualities.

Very dynamic composing Anders; you provide the viewer with two paths into the photograph; unique juxtaposition; I think the placement of eyelevel make the scene even more enviting.

 

Tim

Interesting composition Anders; simplistic yet formal in presentation;

Thanks for your comments on my portfolio.

All though the heavens appear a little too strong and thus tend to stand out more than the lower coastal scape, they may also be interpreted as breaking through and, thus,creating a powerful tention between the two planes of existence. I prefer a smoother more natural transition but I understand the

break. Intriguing work, although it doesn't appear transition was on your mind.

 

Regards,

 

Tim

Thanks Ellen for all your support; and GOD bless you too!

Yes Ellen, thanks for the comment on my single Gull on an Abraham Lincoln statue but it pales the magnificent captures you have in this series. Wonderful Job!

Thanks Dimf!

You can actually see a little more of the tree in other shots in this series but my guest considering its very broad growth is 60 to 70 years old. Thanks for your interest.

 

Tim

I am very greatful for your support; Thanks again Dimf.

Thanks Dimf for the acknowledgement,

 

Tim

Yes, I agree; I also teach watercolour painting and this painting demonstrates

restraint while maintaining translucence and color balance---primary attributes of good watercolour painting. Way to go Ellen!

 

Serene . . . excellent capture.

ditto: I wonder what it looks like in color? Nice work!

Thanks Jana, and may you find a path to HIS light one day; always enjoy reviewing your portfolio. Regards,

 

Tim

Thanks again Ellen as always for your support . . . Tim

Thanks Ellen, good to hear from you again; Regards.

Not only is this a great shot but aesthetically, good composition. Weren't you a little too close?

 

Regards,

 

Tim

 

 

You know I have been very busy and haven't posted much lately, but I understand your query; you know the push-pull of the contrast between the shadows and the sunlight on facade. Thanks

My sentiments as well Marco; guess I'll always be a formalist, although I wish I had better glass when I took the shot. Thanks.

Well thanks Ransford; The only thing that bother's me is a little filter noise (but that may be due more to my insistence on absolute control) otherwise I agree with you, its unique, ironically, I have not be able to duplicate this blend. Thanks again.
