This is a real nice shot Ina .

On which side of the gate can I meet Autumn? I seem to miss The Lady so much!
Lovely shot, dear Ina!!! My style, with very beautiful coulours and texture. Like the way the gate is pinpointed with those barren branches intricately woven over it. The rest fades away into the vegetation.The carpet of leaves is lighting up the whole image.

Good description, thanks Gustavo :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/26/2005
Thank you Gabriela, I'm glad you like this one... I'll be soon starting some Halloween pictures :)

Ina, I posted this comment but it didn't come thru! Don't know what happened but I hope you don't get it twice.

Gorgeous colors and clarity! Lots of facinating textures here! I love the bare vines and leafy floor with such arresting color. I think the DOF is working well for you in this composition. When I first saw it I thought perhaps I would like to see a bit more DOF, but on second thought that might make the complex texture too much for the eye and jumble it.

In looking at this I got to wondering if adding a subtle gradient of bloack-to-transparent from right-to-left with low opacity might help highlight the left side by dulling the right slightly, helping to focus attention on the bare vines. So I took the liberty, just for fun...

right to left dark gradient


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/26/2005
I do like it Mark, it could use a bit of darker background, I've never used gradients before, in this case it gives it a more moody look, something new! I'm using probably less than half of what Photoshop has to offer, I'll have to try this feature in the future. Thanks for takingthetime to do this, I really like it! Ina


Kathy Hillard   {K:25721} 10/26/2005
I LOVE THIS INA!!! I love the leaves, I love the gate, I love the vines growing over the gate to give it that unused feel, and I love the dof! (Other than that I can't think of anything I like about it :)) Great shot! Congrats!
Kathy
I am home. I had a great time and took a lot of pictures, which you will be seeing for quite a while :)


Susie OConnor   {K:34798} 10/26/2005
This is a wonderful photo Ina. The gate is definitely doing it's job....doesn't look like it's let anyone in for ages...the vine wrapped around the the thick leaves testify to that! Nice perspective that you've chosen as well.
(What Mark did is interesting too...I like both.)


Jim Budrakey   {K:22954} 10/26/2005
Very nice - well composed shott. A beautiful peaceful scene. Well done.


Endre Novak   {K:12534} 10/26/2005
Buetiful colours and nice dof work, as well Ina.
Congrats,
Endre

Robert Kocs   {K:89061} 10/26/2005
Thanks for your dedication me! Very nice autumnal scene with fantastic colours! Lovely composition and very stirring details! Love the DoF, well presented & seen autumnal atmosphere! Thanks again dear Ina!
Well done dear! :) 7/7

My best regards!
Robert


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/26/2005
You're welcome, dear Robert :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/26/2005
Thanks Kathy for your nice comment, I guess that's as romantic as it gets with me :) I'm yet to learn how to do moody pictures... waiting for some fog. And welcome back home! Looking forward to the Wisconsin pictures!


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/26/2005
Thank you Susie for your observation, as well as Kathy's. It's interesting that I didn't realize the fact that the vine indicated the gate hadn't been open for years! I was just interested in the lines, colors, DOF... etc. Good point!


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/26/2005
Thanks very much Jim :)


Ahmed Ismail   {K:19853} 10/26/2005
Very beautiful!! Lovely colors. The old fence with the vine like branches without leaves makes this scene so nice. I like the ground full of the colorful leaves. Very nice shot.

Brian Fillmore   {K:4016} 10/26/2005

Andrzej Pradzynski   {K:21435} 10/27/2005
Ina, I see you did not rest but took an advantage of a couple of rainy days in Southern Ontario to shoot great colorful images. Yes, it's a great time to get the best of the fall colors with a deep dynamic range. Unfortunatelly I'm busy and the days are getting shorter. Anyway it's your another great shot, n.j


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/27/2005
Thanks again for the nice comments Endre :) Regards, Ina

Nice fence and lovely autumn shot Ina! The colours and the dof too!

Jeanette


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks Jeanette :)


Eleisa Martin   {K:2579} 10/31/2005
I love this spot Ina. The colors are very nice. I was reading what mark wrote about the gradiant dark to light work and I actually can't see a drastic difference. Maybe if the pictures were next to each other. Anyway, this is very lovely.
