Equally Unbalanced

I grabbed this photo on my way home from work today, and when I uploaded it, I really liked the unbalanced look between the trees, but yet the way it's composed, it looks balanced. I did some editing in PicMonkey, and settled for this final version. A busy day at work trying to get things cleaned up by the end of the week, and then next Friday I begin 10 days of vacation. Going to break out the new fishing rods, as our Son also has vacation, so we are going to have some one on one time by the water. Unfortunately Josie has not accumulated a lot of vacation days yet, but she does have the freedom to rearrange her schedule which will give her a few days off during my 10 days. It will be nice. Hope you all have a great night.

You are right; it's unbalanced but yet it is not. Perfect title and effects.

@webfoot When I saw your one post I thought the same thing Paul

[Shanne]

don't worry about it Rick, it's the sort of thing I do all the time trying to keep this manageable

Hope you have a wonderful vacation. We have Bass in our lake in case you want to try it. I love the editing on your photo. Makes me want to draw...

[MaryBeth Dailey]

Yes, it is balanced to me. I guess our brains know that each tree is about the same size, just different places in the dof. I love this! I hope you enjoy your upcoming, well deserved vacation!

[Beverly Carmichael]

At first I thought you painted it. That said, I agree that it looks balanced. I hope you have a restful vacation with your family!

[karenann]

Great processing. It looks like an old etching. I agree about the balance. Just off enough to be interesting.

This processing worked very well for your "balanced" photo, Rick. ;) I hope you have a great 10 days off to catch up on some relaxing. Going fishing with your son is a perfect choice. Have fun!
