Interesting shot. I like the soft feel it gives, and I would of enjoyed it much more if the electircal/telephone wire wasn't going through - IMO it splits the picture. But overall, I like it. 7
Very krnodil-y and quite nostalgic on my part - my very first challenge entry featured a windmill and power lines. It wasn't nearly this creatively done, however!
ok since this was an advanced editing challenge I think I would have edited the powerlines out...ya, ya...I'm one of those...for me they distract away from a very beautiful picture
OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy). I'll be picking one of these images for the Mu (most underrated) award:
Positives: Wonderful use of blur here - the handling is a great match for this composition and colouring too. The aspect ratio works really well and I think you have nailed the composition too.
Critical stuff: Nothing at all
Overall: A great image which really hangs together well.
