The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.

I went to a local gardens today and decided to try Intentional Camera Movement. These are done with cultivated grape hyacinths and tulips.

Specific Feedback

I have very little experience with ICM so any comments would be appreciated.

All are beautiful, Allen, though #1 and #3 stand out to me. The motion you managed in #1 is really wild.

Hi Allen,

Nice job on these! ICM is loads of fun and can produce some wonderful abstracts. I like that you experimented with different swipes to create different effects. One suggestion is that you add a touch of contrast to the first two and the last. It will help the colors pop a bit.

Best.

I especially love the first and third, as they have the most compositional interest to my eye. Five is also nice.

All of them are nice, but the first one for me is the most beautiful one… for the colors and the complex pattern of movement. And also the third one is quite intriguing. Well done!

Allen: Cool efforts on each with my favorites being 1, 2, and 5 in that order. What is so cool about ICM is the utter uniqueness and unrepeatability of the images. Delightful work. >=))>
