It's Almost That Time

The lawn mower wheel... it's almost time to start cutting again! You can really see the details if you enlarge and surround in black.

[Graham Thresher]

Very creative.

[Captured4Ever]

Yes, you made into a work of art!

[Lin]

Awesome! (the capture, not the yard work part...)

[Jennifer Ruge]

Say it isn't so! I hate mowing lawn! Cool lighting and focus!

[Jane Armstrong]

I know that feeling. According to my Facebook memories I cut my grass on 3rd March 2014. It certainly needs it but a hover mower would be needed.

[Cathy Wright]

Excellent picture. We have just moved from a house where it took four hours to cut all the grass to a house with no grass at all! I don't miss it at all but your picture brings back such memories. Far.

[Tammy]

I am so excited for spring! Such excellent texture in this pic, love it on black!

[Tracy]

Cool pic! It looks so nice...

[PTP: Past their Prime]

Very creatively done.... Fav.

[Pyrrhula]

A great find and beautiful capture .

[Debra]

Love the lighting and focus. Looking forward to Spring, but not the mowing

[Taffy]

Black made a huge difference...clever macro yielding a great abstract.

[Irene]

Aah, a good reminder of the many hours of grass cutting ahead of us in the northern hemisphere

[Graeme Stevens]

Very cool

[Danette Thompson]

Turned out great.

[Ashley]

Well done!

Unique, clever, and a fav!

[gloria jones]

Great focus and great on black

[KWind]

@brownee56 The lawnmower was just in our dark shed which created the black background. It just kind of happened! I was using my 105m macro lens.

[Corinne]

Already ! Your weather is better than ours ;)

[Shari]

Great shot. Took me a minute to figure out what it was.

[Carla]

Who knew a muddy tread could be so appealing!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Cool shot. I like your dof.

Great eye and the grass really adds

[Karen Mitchell]

Cool abstracted pattern. Nice detail.

[☠northy]

Beautiful focus and light

[Jane Morley]

Looks brilliant on black. Amazing shot.

[Holly]

This is such and interesting image! At first I thought it was a little cobblestone path or something. Great use of light and negative space. Fav.

[Issi Bannerman]

Oh, no, you've reminded me! I keep looking at our grass and thinking 'it won't be long'. I'm not looking forward to adding the gardening back onto my list of tasks. I like pottering, but the grass is a chore! Super original capture!

[LaLa]

Great detail and lighting.

[Susan Klassen]

Looks great - love the lighting!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

The unique perspective makes it a great shot.

[Kim]

Definitely an EOTB image and I love it and your pov. fav

[Jules Hoogstra-Anderson]

This looks incredible on black, such detail and your POV, is amazing. I can't believe it's a wheel, very creative shot. Fav and following.

[Joolz]

How did you do the lighting? Post editing or did you you use a torch? Very curious...

[KWind]

@brownee56 It was just the light that was in there. It was strange, when I looked through the camera everything was black and the grassy bits seemed illuminated. It was kind of weird. Minimal editing was done.

[Joolz]

@kwind Much appreciated Kim!

[Nicole Campbell]

Another fab shot, so much texture and details, it is like I can smell the grass

[Caroline]

Ooooh talk about making something so mundane look so interesting! Excellent lighting in this beautiful shot... Quite artistic!

[Mgreen]

Interesting and artistic POV.
