Very nice and different from what you usually do. Love the colours and the focus!

thank you Andy. I think most people have found the composition too confusing but I like to chuck stuff out there these days! Got any more weddings booked?

Hey Viktoria
Weddings? Yeah, a couple for next year. I'm actually going to be shooting my violin playing friend and her quartet at a very posh wedding next week. Obviously, I'm not shooting the wedding but I'll be keeping a beady eye on their photographer to see how he works

Hey Vik...it went well, a lot of fun actually. I like working with Carla (the violinist) and we'll do lots more stuff together. It was interesting to light, and I learned a lot. That was probably the last time I picked up my camera though

Hope everything is good with you

Well... that's the thing about abstract, makes the onlooker think. I like it and I've just noticed that a major effect (but a really good one) is the apparent shallow depth of field throwing the background out. Works for me. Perhaps the only thing that was needed was something in the right-hand top corner to balance it out a bit but then again.....

Very interesting!

In the thumbnail, and even regular size view on this page, it looks like a mostly burned log to me - like you would see in a fire pit when camping.

The colors are lovely and it is a cool idea

hyneige [2009-11-23 16:46:44 +0000 UTC]

Shades metallic bluish grey and orange are very interest, as well as the texture of the rock. However the point of interest seems lost between the party superior less interesting and the inferior party lightly blurred. But the central party could give a very good photograph square but promoting colours, forms and texture.

Les teintes gris bleu mΓ©tallique et l'orangΓ© sont trΓ¨s intΓ©ressent, aisi que la texture de la roche. Cependant le point d'intΓ©rΓͺt semble perdu entre la partie supΓ©rieur moins intΓ©ressante et la parite infΓ©rieur lΓ©gΓ¨rement flou. Mais la partie centrale pourrait donner une trΓ¨s bonne photo carrΓ©e mais valorisant les couleurs, les formes et la texture.

I like the contrast of the greys and the oranges.

It's a nice composition and interesting use of the depth of field too.

It's a very interesting shot. It took me a while to identify the components, so I think the 'abstract' works.

thank you - it was shot from above with my camera hanging over a bridge - my tripod isn't the safest so it was a bit of a worry but it survived!!
