Richmond upon Thames: the view from London's "Arcadia" along the River Thames in Southwest London.
This piece of "Expressionism" is a pure photograph, which came direct from the camera. i.e. this is how I set up the camera and this is the result. No Photoshop or post processing were involved except for a minor darkening of the shadow area.
a) Do you like it? b) How did I do it?

I THINK maybe you overexposed it. The only reason I know is that many times mine come out like this unintentionally. There have been some that I liked and i really like yours. The darkness in the background makes it work, rather than a totally overexposed shot. my humble opinion. Can't wait to hear how you really did it.
ReplyDeleteI agree, it looks like massive overexposure - exposing for the dark shadows areas in the wood. NB auto-exposure cameras will do this for you all by themselves if you let them. I might like it more if you crop the bottom off
ReplyDelete'Richard.......Yep...should have cropped the bottom but. You final ambiguity leaves me as confused as the photo. I really must learn to keep myself to myself.
ReplyDeleteBTW...are you enjoying the Festival?
No - I'm in Zurich
ReplyDeleteI do like it! It looks surreal ... I did the same experiment once, but with a different subject.
ReplyDeleteHi from South Shields, nice picture you have here today.Looks like a nice mistake!
ReplyDeleteI need your support, see my latest post at South Shields Daily Photo
Photographers rights in the UK and worldwide are under increasing threat and we need to make a stand now!
Unless something changes dramatically, this will be the last ever post at South Shields Daily Photo.
Yeah - I like it (but you would have guessed that).
