Meadow scene #4

Gallery: FloraPosted June 27, 2013148 views12 comments
D600 70-200 2.8 vr shot @ 90mm f/14 1/800sec iso250 2sec delay release... mirrir up. ev-0


It was quiet windy, so the 1/800 sec helped. I especially like the timothy grass against the golden BG, composed of buttercups.. comments appreciated

Those yellow blotches make the difference her Albert ...and not an easy scene to compose ...

Wow, Albert, this whole series has been great, but this is clearly my favorite so far. Love the green grasses against the yellow bg. Only nit: this just looks a little titled to me, but this could be my head! My only concern with straightening the image is that you are going to lose some off the top. :wavey:

The best yet, Albert. I love the focused grasses against the wash of yellow.

What a pleasant summer scene you have captured here, Albert. Great mixture of colors, shapes, and textures. Love the progressively blurred yellow color wash flowing through the background. . .shows off the front, more focused grasses so well. Great overall comp. Very nice! :smile:

Albert - Very nice Meadow scene. The thing that strikes me here is the nice luminosity.

I really like the shallow dof and focus on the foremost plants and grasses here, Albert. Lovely color and excellent detail. Strong image, Albert!

Albert,
I like very much the meadow scenes (and impressionistic images) that you posted in past years. This series is wonderful too. It is not easy to compose a flower field scene, but you did very well.
I love this one the best (followed by #2), because there are more grass in focus and the yellow background is just beautiful. Hope you will post other series.
Thanks for your comment on my “Hiding water lily”.

I have loved your series of wildflowers and grass. A project I would like to do one day. I only hope to do it as well as you have done it. :toast:
