Half half 13 by monikozi

Half half 13

Yesterday I went out to buy bread and took the camera with me. I ended up with about 100 photos, but rest assured: if I have 4 or 5 worthy enough to post here, it will be a miracle. It was very windy and I kept shooting in case I get a proper one.
This is a metal case standing in the park. I am not sure what its purpose is besides being rusty and filled with lame graffiti. But it was good to practice focusing. In this instance, it is quite hard to get a reasonable dof and focus, when one of the elements (the grass) is farther than the front element (the case).
I like it!

Love the rusty textured and patterns, great half and half.

@ludwigsdiana Yes, the textures are very nice as the paint is scorched. I think shot with the case more in focus than the grass would look quite well too.

Great contrast of urban v rural.

Interesting indeed, though it makes me want to get a lorry and take the graffiti bit of metal away and leave it to nature to rule the roost!

Very nice half and half

Well the only useful thing about that rust cabinet is it got you your half and half
May 13th, 2021  
Great half and half

You did well, and it makes a great half and half.

Dramatically different worlds.

Great find and capture of the contrast.
On windy day`s I only took pic.`s more far. No close ups . The moving plants do n`t spoil the pic. a lot than.)

Well, very good job. I see beautiful details in both halves.

@pyrrhula Yes, that is a good tip!
May 14th, 2021  
@delboy207 Indeed!

@casablanca well, yes. At least they could have drawn something nice. They just wasted the paint.

@shutterbug49 I hope you're feeling better!
May 14th, 2021  
it's amazing how many half and half you see when you look for it!
May 14th, 2021  
Yes, indeed. Thank you, @blueberry1222

You took the focusing difficulties well, it was a neat shot. Perhaps with a narrower aperture it would have been easier to achieve a large depth of field.

Makes for a superb half and half image

@borof True. I should have taken a narrower aperture, but it was windy. If I had taken a narrower aperture, the grass would have been blurred :D Thanks for stopping by.
Thank you, @nicolecampbell
