    Re: A pattern

    The color really grabs my attention. Did you take any using different dof? I would be interested in seeing some of those if you did.


    In my photography, color and composition are inseparable. I see in color.

    Re: A pattern

    I can't help but think my right eye is messed up when I look at that picture. Neat idea

    Re: A pattern

    i have one where the whole shot is in focus and then I have a shot of it fading right. Heres the other one.

    *moved to first post*

    **after looking at it again, I think I like the second shot more.

    Thanks for the comments all! :-)

    Re: A pattern

    I agree that your second image is better (because the overall focus is better).
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Re: A pattern

    I also like the second one better. It's not as abstract, but it doesn't play tricks on your mind either

    Re: A pattern

    #2 works better for me also. I like your idea.

    Re: A pattern

    Thanks for all your comments. I'm going to revise the first post to include #2 after the first one.

    Re: A pattern

    #1 makes my eyes go funny, and bits of the image seem to move around.
    #2 is plain boring in comparison - but sharp
