Wave

Foggy sunrise. I wanted to create a "dreamy "abstraction with this wave with a tiny bit of sunlight and a tiny bit of blue.

Thanks for the feedback!

Hi Ulbe - This is very restful. For me, because of the overall cool blue tones, I think of a sunset at the ocean. There is that subtle hint of warmth at the top and bottom, which is beautiful. The image seems a bit fuzzy, even considering that you probably used ICM to make it.

Thank you so much for the feedback!

This works just fine for me Ulbe. Minimalism at it’s best. The pastel colors are wonderful and I like the gradients of warm and cool tones. The wave action in the middle of the frame adds a little bit of visual tension to the scene. Nicely done.

The pops of warm color really set this apart for me. If it were all blue it may work but it would have a much different feel. The warmth combined with the cool parts are great. I really enjoy it!
