West Dean Gardens -Deconstructed

A sunny walk around West Dean with the sle intention of getting landscape shots to present deconstructed.

My plan was to depict the river, in full flow and flood, but I just couln't get it to work in post editting.

I hop Saxa like this though, and I fear I may even have another go on my day off tomorrow- seen one on't web I want to copy. Fingers crossed for sunshine two days running!
@overalvandaan Another one for you Saxa! Had a fun day dong photography, planning what 'd do, and then changing it at the final hurdle!!

Yes - this is a beauty! You still get the whole idea and the individual sections seem to flow into each other and tie it together. I think you've nailed this technique Jackie! It reminds me of those deconstructed desert that became so popular - the the good chefs made them a work of art but the multiple people who followed after just gave you a plate with odds and ends on it! It's very tempting to have a go at one but I fear mine would end up as odds and ends... :)

Another type of collage - makes it more interesting and vibrant!

An intriguing image -- love how you are using collage as a way to deconstruct.

a fabulous collage filled with great shots. I especially love the one bottom right. I have not come across a grid like this. The centre part is quite intriguing.

think you've done this so well!

@pistache thank you Clare it looks easy online but I didn't find it to be
@ludwigsdiana the grid's on photoscapex, I changed the shape of the central bit to get some lines converging better
@randystreat and today back to winter rain!! Thank you
@taffy I did try composetting - mega fail!!
@maggiemae thank you. helped sun shone 60% of te time I think

Well done.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond No luck with the rotten cat yet - though we haven't been up there much lately, too busy on the GC. The farm would be a good spot to try one of these - there's lots of different components to the block. Maybe an IR one? BTW - the online AYWMC has been so useful - that first section with all of the technical stuff made so much sense - I can now use most of the knobs and dials! Thanks for mentioning it, I really appreciate it. :)

@robz are you using the app??
March 4th, 2020  
@30pics4jackiesdiamond No - just the online email format - my phone and I only have a very basic relationship..
