The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
This image is of the Bismarck Palm, with its distinctive silver-grey fronds that fan out in stately splendor, much like the broad influence of its namesake, Otto von Bismarck. The image captures the palm’s serene and noble presence, echoing the enduring legacy of the statesman it honors.
Wonderful graphic quality to this one Saundie! The composition draws you in with the lines converging. I really like the the opposing tonal values. Lighter up top and darker at the bottom. Well done!
Don, when I saw this image the first word that came to mind for me was “velocity.” It gives me the sensation of speeding through a tunnel. It’s a very interesting and beautiful image!
Another superb plant abstract, Saundie. I really love the way everything leads to the center area with that strange triangle. The brighter fronds on the top feel almost like a ceiling which is interesting.
Don !!! Amazing image. I would have never guessed this is a photograph of a palm tree. Do I have that right. The Lines and the Tone really are so cool and interesting. Very Very Cool.
Thanks for the feedback, Mark. What’s obvious to some may not be obvious to all, thank goodness. I’m not fond of edits that significantly alter the image’s structure. I’ll have to accept it as it is.
