I love places like this..great shot, and of course you already know about the border..I think playing with borders if fun...and sometimes I like them but I think this shot is too straightforward for this one...
thanks Linda...and shoot me next time I try something new...never entered my mind to put NO frame..lol...I did debate between this one entered and one with white border and small brown border inside white border..but i thought the wide black made it look more 3d or something..i dunno WHAT i'z thinking..lol
I love this photo - but the frame is much too heavy. Not sure black was a good color choice for the frame either. A rich brown frame - much thinner comes to mind as a better choice.
Colors within the photo are beautiful. Great DOF and focus. Excellent composition.
okay trust me..NO MORE border experiments...but NOTHING I did pleased me as far as improving image...how bout submitting with no border?what?that's possible? ;-)
thanks for honest input folks :-) good or bad...it always teaches me SOMETHING.
They must've been running a special on borders that day. Wow.
Anyway, I like the shot. The two cranes are a good capper to the image, and it almost seems as though some of the cypress knees and branches are talking to each other, too. All in all, I think this is a good shot, but that border blows my mind (and really, I normally don't mind borders).
What an amazing shot. Though I'm not a "hater" of frames, this franme is a bit too heavy for the minimalistic tone of this shot. It really could have stood out without the distraction of all the heaviness of the edge. Good luck!
Subject Impact: Doesn't really grab me, the large boarder is distracting to me
