A wild experiment

[TonyW]

Tell me if this means anything to anyone. It's an experiment in intentional camera movement. I do quite like the colours.

[Saorsa]

It's not something I would shoot but it is appealing.

To my eye, I think you might need a little more white space at the top or a little less light green at the bottom. The lines stop stop abruptly at the top of the frame. I think it would look better with the white space at the top being about half the height of the light green at the bottom.

I like it a lot - the colours and patterns are interesting and peaceful to look at.
I don't mind the widths of the white at the top and the bright green at the bottom.

FWIW, I like the concept but, am not nuts about the sky. Maybe more color as with seasonal changes.

Very nice abstract, if it was mine I would crop from the top and from left to eliminate the sky and the yellow part. Then IMO the image would give the impression of a wood

[IzzieK]

I cannot comment on what I do not know but I think this is more abstract than anything...

[TonyW]

Thanks for all the comments - very helpful. I usually find it hard to make fine judgements about other peoples' pictures but with my own it is almost impossible. I am trying to do things a bit different to the usual landscape, etc.

Binnur, the picture is of the edge of a small area of forest. All the colours are in the actual scene. I have not changed any of the colours except for playing with the brightness and contrast.

Tony - I think Binnur is bang on with her suggestion. Stick with the predominantly cooler tones and crop out the sky and orange leaves and you have an excellent abstract image.

Somewhat reminiscent of the Group of 7. This looks like a technique that seem simple but gets tough in the practical.

[wilgk]

I like the idea, & agree, just the trees, without the sky would increase the impact.

[Aeros]

I like it a lot.
