Dahlia Abstract-5

Gallery: FloraPosted September 17, 2012122 views14 comments

Another one from the Dahlia Series - back to abstracts. The Dahlia that I use for making Abstracts has survived and is blooming very well now.

ND300s, AFS60mm F/2.8 Micronikkor @ F/5.6, 1/400 Sec, ISO400, Handheld and Diffuser.

Thanks a lot for your comments on Dahlia-4 and let me know what you think of this one.

Another beautiful abstract, Ram. Each one is a pleasure to look. In fact, I went back through your gallery looking at the many gorgeous abstracts in your gallery. As for this one, I love the lines, light, and color. Personally, I might crop a little off the top, maybe about 10%, to reduce the darker space at the top, but, on the other hand, I do like the layers in the top right corner, including the uppermost pink layer.

When you get done with this series could you send me the dahlia! Another great perspective and end result!

I think this one is my favorite of the Dahlias so far! I like the waterfall flow to the petals and the soft variation in color.

Ram:
Without reading Scott's comment, I also find I like this more with a crop off the top. Otherwise its your classical top notch abstract.

Scott and Gary - Thanks for the feedback. Your crop suggestion has tons of merit and the print of this will have that crop. Is'nt a dozen pairs of Eyes better than one

Beautiful, very soft and pastel with great lines. I glanced back at your recent abstracts and all are beautiful with a fluid feel to them

Ram, I am fascinated by the harmony of the colors. The delicacy of your colors has a trademark. Beautiful.
Cheers.

It's almost impossible to make choices between these dahlia images, Ram ! I can't myself see anything here I would want to change - the rhythms of the petal edges give a sense of depth which is very, very nice !!

Good as is, for me. A stellar example of your dahlia abstracts. The lines on this one are what makes this so attractive to me.

This is beautiful, Ram--I love the colors, the flow, and the perfect depth of field. I agree about the crop comments, as you mentioned. Fabulous!
