For todays image, again I am picking from Monday's crop. This was a half hearted attempt to shoot without looking. I was thinking about the concept as walking along, and just took out my camera and took the shot blindly. I kind of knew what I was taking though - so it probably doesn't count. If I had been looking, I wouldn't have cut off the bottom of the bicycle wheel. The processing is in an attempt to detract from the cut off wheel - for some reason, it seems more important in the original.
The cut off wheel doesn't bother me here probably because of your nice processing. And I really like this comp with the vertical and round lines. So well done with just a 'little peep', haha ;-)
@flowerfairyann thanks Ann. Sometimes these special effects come in handy. @helenm2016 thanks Helen - yes a happy arrangement @lsquared thanks - I guess that is what made me pause and then think I was cheating! @pistache I havea basket like that too - except that mine is squashed! @maggiemae no idea whos bike it is, but it seems easier to shoot a strange bike than a strange person. @olivetreeann thanks Ann. I think I was fortunate to have come so close to what I would have taken anyway. @pdulis thank you Peter. @moonmtn thanks Kahsia - seemed the best choice to me. @kwind thanks Kim - it is always fun to play with the options, but difficult to decide which to stick with. @onewing thanks Babs, the editing adds interest by making the lines and shapes strong. @haskar many thanks indeed @stimuloog thank you kindly. It was more bothersome on the original. @suzanne234 thanks Suzanne @gerry and last, but not least, thank you Gerry.
A very cool and interesting image! I'm always inspired by the images you create with your special processing techniques, Helen. Now I just need to take the next step and actually try them myself. I'm not quite sure why I haven't taken that next step yet. Definitely something to think about. :-)
Your comp here has so interesting juxtaposition of shapes....and the processing has it looking more like a drawing. Well seen...or not seen as it were...lol
@helenm2016 thanks Helen - yes a happy arrangement
