About Yep! Time for something a little different!!

The trees in the background and the bushy stuff in the foreground were virtually silhouetted against the sky and lake ~ so I just gave it a bit of a helping hand in PS in order to come up with something that might fit the current project. What do YOU think? Is it 'abstract' enough?

Thanks for your thoughts ~ always!

Best regards, Chris

P.S. I'll be gone for another 3-4 days now. I'm off on a reading/study break as part of my sabbatical. See you soon!

Beautiful! The reflections are fantastic and I love the golden hue. I think it fits with project #51. Very well done. :)

Eventhough I wouldn't call it abstract at all, it has something mythical pover it. Enjoy your sabbatical!

A true vision of beauty Chris with a spectacular
composition. The colors are rich and its almost
like looking at two photos at once with the
sharp reflections in the foreground.
Absolutely gorgeous!

Will be looking forward to your return.
I'm still out of town also but I should be
back in a week or two.


Merete Westerdahl   {K:11046} 7/5/2005
I like it!!! Here on my computer it's much better than what I saw when I was at my parents.. )
I don't look at it as abstract... it's filled with a certain mood...something magical...don't you think???
It's great..actually!!! ( My favorite word)

LOL

Hugs

Welcome back Chris! I didn't see it as an abstract but a magical landscape. The reflections are heavenly. It's got the silhouettes so it fits with the current project.

I didn't think abstract when I looked at it. But, I did think WHOA, what a great picture. The colouring and silhouettes are marvelous.
Enjoy your sabbatical time.
Mary


Larry Quigley   {K:12884} 7/5/2005
I don'r know about abstract, Chris, but this is a wonderful scene in black and gold. The reflected scene has such great detail and color! Absolutely beautiful composition capped off with the silhouette in the foreground. This is a winner, Chris. Best wishes and thanks for your recent comment. Larry

Roger Williams   {K:83282} 7/6/2005
I've been sorely missing your friendly voice, and I was going to say "Nice to have you back," but I see we haven't GOT you back yet. As for "abstract enough?" Well, it's getting there. Not exactly your style, though...


Dave Stacey   {K:120173} 7/6/2005
Different indeed, Chris! Yep, I think this qualifies!
Dave.


Roberto Okamura   {K:22842} 7/6/2005

Amazing PS work Chris... wonderful moody image with beautiful golden tones and reflection.
Great job my friend,
Khaled.


ade mcfade   {K:12388} 7/8/2005
let loose up north!!

what an excellent job you've done too - captured the feel of the lakes really well. Mist, hills and lots of water - the toning's a real stand out feature too. Nicely done.
Cheers
