Critique Style Requested: Standard
The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
The movement of the banana leaf indicates the approach of a summer typhoon in Korea.
Any comments welcome.
D500 + 105mm macro 1/2500 f22 ISO 5000
Multiple exposures (4) to catch the movement. Denoise, tonalities and sharpening in PS.
Wow! This is a really cool image, Mike. It’s very modern art abstract looking. I had no idea what it was until reading your description. And even knowing that it’s a banana leaf still doesn’t seem to register in my mind as that. Really great work!
Hi Mike,
wow, that looks amazing. What a great abstract image with a graphic look.
I also had to read your description first to realize what you were photographing here.
I wonder how the image would look with a more aggressive high-key treatment.
“summer typhoon” sounds dangerous… I hope it was not that bad.
Thanks @Vanessa_Hill - glad you like it. Thank you @Jens_Ober - rains are very heavy this year, tho’ we’re lucky not to be in a flooding area.
Mike, your multiple exposure approach worked really well here, the leaf’s details being nicely clear and the “ghosting” as it bounced.
