Description 100% QC APPROVED - [link]

The weather is sooo bad I have to postpone my abstract outdoor stuff. (Literally.)
In the meantime here are some lilies for you.

Second of the series. This time with pure white background. Squarecrop felt too forced on this so I found a better comp, but some rotation was needed for it.

---
PS6: rotate 5 degrees CCW, crop, saturation +5, some burn tool on the petals, resize, frame, type.
Font: Water tank. [link]

what a delicate and finely rendered abstract.....love the soft lighting and minimalist concentration on the subtle shades of pink.....with just a dash of yellow!

beautiful closeup shot of the flower! Reminds of me o'keeffe, but yours is more pastel and yet vibrant in color. And the composition is also very nice, the way you blur out the background for example. Good job.

Yes, indeed, I was perusing the comments to find yours...it *is* an orchid, but I am not sure if Orchids are considered part of the Lily family; I have my doubts...nonetheless, he speaks a different first language, and it is an incredible photo...so we should let it slide.

It is really a beautiful photo!!

Great photo, it's very calming yet rejuvenating. The colors are perfect and there's just enough dead space.

"dead space"... brrr, that sounds cold...

2BFree4Ever In reply to DimensionSeven [2008-02-18 07:27:59 +0000 UTC]

I think the commentor meant it more as an idea of spaciousness that is not taken up by busy-ness...it is actually more of an advertising term used here in the U.S. - but it really refers to refreshing space that allows the eye and consciousness a bit of time and relief to fully absorb the remainder, or center, of the piece..."just enough dead space" is a VERY nice and sensitive comment! This piece is absolutely breathtaking...and the use of nothingness along with the beauty only accentuates the beauty and creativity itself...you obviously *feel* this intuitively, which makes you a true artist!

no. it is just that i'm getting such sophisticated comments very rarely, like once in a month or two.

So my comment was "sophisticated?" I like that very much...I have an eye on you so you can expect more feedback, at least from me. I very much appreciate your work!

'high key' - noone called my photos 'high key' yet... Well, technically it is, but that makes it sound more 'professional'.

runnerboy49 In reply to DimensionSeven [2006-01-30 18:09:05 +0000 UTC]

yes it does make it sound that way, its very brightly lit so its 'high key', as was castor sugar.
