I've been giving low scores to plant pictures -- but oh, how i love ferns. You've captured it just right. The lighting and framing is there -- the fern is almost in motion as it unfurls to the space to the right.
A good response to the challenge. I don't know if I would have chosen B&W here. I'm left wondering what this would have looked like in color. It is a very nice photo overall.
I kind of know the shot you're after ... I just wish you had more grace in that unfolding of the fern. In purely design terms, it's a favourite image of mine is this - the tonality and the depth of field are expertly done, and the composition, but that sense of the spring of the new isn't really here for me.
This one catches your eye. It has impact. The minor problems that I see are the soft focus on the tips of the fern closest to the lens, and the color. I really think this would be nicer much greener. Spring just really needs color IMO. Overall nice work. 8.
I guess it is your intimate style, the excellent lighting and interesting toning that makes me keep recognizing your photos. Especially the style. I hit the voting button for the previous photo, this one loads and BANG!: This can only be from Sher. :)
Shall I comment on it or not? By now it must look like I'm stalking you at dpc. :)
I did check at pbase this time to see if I was right, would be silly to say the above to a stranger. I have the same thing with Kiwiness when he enters. It's not that hard to pick out his work.
This photo: Simple, it's excellent. Particularly like the way the dark vs light works. The plant family is also very very old, good chance that it was around in the beginning. :)
I also love the way you tone your photos and handle the contrast.
