Clematis

Gallery: FloraPosted June 7, 2011150 views12 comments

A slightly different take on the Clematis - not totally happy with the result (wanted a little definition for the leading lines) but here it is anyways. The reason for not trying further is that my plamp clipped the flower totally - rarely happens that way.

ND200, 50mm F/1.8 lens with 48mm of Tubes (36+12mm stacked), F/2.8, 1/80 Sec, ISO200 and Handheld.

Thanks a lot for your comments/suggestions on Daisy Weed and do let me know what you think of this one.

Not totally happy but still a very top notch abstract. You can send all your rejects files to me

The leading lines are certainly emphasized to my satisfaction Ram. This is beautiful (especially for a clematis - smile). It reminds me of a lavender aurora at dawn. (That epithet from the Iliad - "rosy fingered dawn") Very fine work for my tastes.

Sweet colors and composition Ram. Very well seen and captured in my opinion.

I like the lines - subtle as they are Ram. Nice color combo. Cool abstract.

A beautiful exploration of line, light, and color.
