I think these are dandelions...thus the name I give this...nothing official about it.
My self-challenge to shoot wide-angle continues. No cropping here, as I realized when I did crop and then checked the exif details, the mm reading had changed from 21 to 35 ... so no cropping. I did add shadows in post, but other than that, this is pretty much straight from camera. . Definitely a learning experience...Not the most interesting of shots, but it will do for today..
The angles are very interesting.. Diagonals are very dynamic and i don't think there's a non-diagonal line in this lovely shot.. Absolutely love that you've chosen dandelions as your focal point.. they are such a pretty colour and shape but most folk overlook them, in favour of more exotic blooms.. love the collection of different textures too, from the silky water to the concrete edging..
@jorlam Thank you for noticing so much; as I am working on the technical part of working with the wide-angle I am trying to incorporate effective compositional elements.
@cjphoto Thank you for the enthusiasm. .. Peterson also talks about elements of "storytelling" in landscapes...foreground interest about 2' from lens, then middle ground and background. So I tried to incorporate some of those elements too....
