Lone Tree

Does the grain work?

[Johanna Koppes]

It does. Very nice.

[Carly Terwilliger]

Looks like an atmospheric movie still in which lightning is about the leap out of the clouds.

[Sue Hawkins]

personally i prefered it without the grain but its still a lovely shot

[Jo]

To be difficult - I like it on the water but find it a bit distracting in the sky. I like the shot though.

[Nicole]

I like the grain. It has an artistic, aged effect on the mood that works well for the sepia tone.

[Joyce]

I like it. I think it adds ti the image

[Danny G.]

Yes, the grain works nicely for me. Looks like a vintage film shot.

[Nicole]

very pretty!

[Lyn Berriman]

Yes, it sure does - lovely image

[Graeme Stevens]

Excellent shot

[Taffy]

The monochrome works SO well here!!

[Gwenllian]

Yes grain and sepia together work well

[Margaret Obey]

Beautiful

[Henrietta]

yes I like the grain and monochrome for this. lovely

[Rachel]

I like your idea, but I find it a bit too grainy.

[Julie Duncan]

Works for me! Very atmospheric!

[Heather (pixelchix)]

Yes! I like the atmosphere.

[Rosie Kerr]

First... thumbs up for taking a chance. It is too easy to NOT do that. Second... for this type of a shot, I would prefer something smoother, less grain. Just me. I like grain for gritty - but, maybe too predictable? Argh. The creative choices!

[Marta]

I agree with Rosie. A less grainy image would appeal more to me.

[Barb Newcomb]

Ditto to the above. Good try though

[Pam]

Nice mood. I think it works nicely with the sepia.
