 I don't know--I like this in BW with this processing, but what do you think?

Am I grasping at straws (or fences)?

Art or Junk?

Let me have the honest truth.


Taken on a GTG with Ken in Indiana Dunes State Park (my family lives in Indiana--I grew up there before moving to NY)

And here he is framing a shot:

I'm a bit divided on this one, Neil. It's certainly not junk and I like how it's a bit difficult to identify, but I think the upper left is a bit overall dark.

I wouldn't call it junk, but it doesn't really work for me. It could be the weed that jomari mentioned. Something I can't quite put my finger on is just throwing it off.

Works OK as an abstract for me, and I do prefer it in B&W.

I find it vaguely confusing (and you know how much I love your stuff.) The color one has context--you can tell it's a beach scene by the tones and somehow is a stronger abstract than this flat version.

These are also so interesting as the thumbnail sizes...I thought it was an image of a feather.

The higher contrast in this version really improves it. The only suggestion I'd make would be to clone out that wispy weed.
