No flash, but plenty of dodging and burning. Glad you like it. |

Love your thought process. Hope you don't mind, but if you enjoy looking at other works, I thought you might like to see this image.

The wavy branches have a definite spooky or fairy-tale feel to them. I don't know if you accomplished this by heavy burning or selective lighting, but the end result is pretty cool. |

Interesting find. Though direct flash really does it no justice as does the straight on view. I would have liked a more creative perspective or camera angle to these trees. Also if possible off-camera lighting. Though I know that is not always an option. |

Wow, lots of strange things in this Free Study. This is one of them. Well captured. |

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: I like the way this is more about shape and 'flow' than it is about the subjects themselves. The light is also effective and somewhat suggestive of care headlights - the feel you get when driving deserted roads at night. I like the coloration too - the near monochrome works very well.
Critical stuff: Somehow I wish it was a little softer to emphasise the flowing shape, a long exposure in the wind may have offered such an effect but then of course it would be a different image. I suppose I mean that the degree of sharpness you have offered here offers a little too much for the mood I get from the image.
Overall: An intriguing and effective image. |

Spooky! Painted with light, I assume. I love how they bend! 10 |
