Winter Ink

Thanks again for your comments and thoughts as Im filing through some images for my up and coming website. Giving the old yay or nay. This one was from a 70+ mph winter storm and I found these grasses pushed through the snow bending in the force of winter.
High key exposed in camera and further pushed an additional .75 in raw.

Simple and artistic but its neat how creative nature can be.
I added red contrast filter in ps upon conversion and thats it.

Thanks for looking

Canon 40D

This has a nice graphic feel to it, I like the high key processing, helps push the artistic side to the image. I think it's a yay for the website, something a little different...

Yay here too. I definitely like the high key treatment. Everyone needs something a little different for their portfolio.

I like the minimalistic approach. Very interesting image and a real sense of motion in the grasses.

I love the B&W softness, Anthony. Messy grass patterns look beautiful here! Great eye and great presentation. Very well done.

I like the artsy look here. Well done. Im kinda curious how it might work in color (since green or brown might contrast nicely with white)

Anthony,

Most certainly a keeper and another positive vote for the high-key approach. Excellent!

Works for me Anthony. What I find intriguing is how the grass is leaning one way. They also have a pencil drawing look to them. Very artistic, a real keeper.

I love the high key/minimalist look of this image. The flow of the grasses is really nice, too. :toast:
