Green Wave

by Bill Fach

Gallery: FloraPosted August 1, 2015206 views9 comments

Sony A77

Sony 70-400G @ 330mm

ISO 400, 1/40 @ f11

I was attracted to the flowing lines and textures on the underside of this elephant ear leaf. Messed around with the WB to bring up the blues in the shadows and kind of liked the effect. All comments welcome. >=))>

Beautiful abstract, Bill!   The colors are beautiful and I like how you have the lines flowing diagonally across the frame.

Bill - Wonderful. The Blue hues and the green remind me of the Algae/plants under water - an abstract that makes you think or interpret is always a good one.

Yes, the touches of blue are a fine addition and terrific contrast to the wonderful lines of green here, Bill.  Very well seen.

I like the lines and colors for sure, but for me, I needed a bit more sharpness.

Hi Bill!  This makes an interesting abstract.  I like how the diagonals and colors create/enhance the wave effect.  Well done!

Very artsy! I love everything about it, except for the lack of sharpness. There's a lot of detail in the lower leaf that I want to see.
