Red on red!!!Fire on fire! Well, very daring composition!The background is very attractive, there are demons inside there! Very daring indeed! Crazy autumn! (if I say bloody autumn the meaning might give place to interpretation).
Love from Gabriela


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005

Thank you amr :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thank you Zeev :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Indeed, "violent" - good description - I got that same impression on screen, not in the field, though, where it looked just plain lovely. Thanks :)


Mohamed Banna   {K:34222} 10/28/2005
the power of play with the DOF to show amazing RED tones

very artistic abstract
WELL DONE dear Ina


Mohsen Bayramnejad   {K:21827} 10/28/2005
HOW BEAUTIFUL!!..really great and creative artistic work!I LOVE IT!
10++
cheers,
Mohsen


Kathy Hillard   {K:25721} 10/28/2005
Fall colors are almost gone...keep those shots coming!!!
This is really nice, Ina. I love the way that you have created texture with focus. The colors don't change, but, because the dof is shallow you have created two distinct layers of the same color. I don't know if this is making any sense at all, but the bottom line is...this is really nice! :))))
Kathy


Ahmed Ismail   {K:19853} 10/28/2005
The strong reds of the leaves are very nice. Nice autumnal shot with an abstract feel.


Endre Novak   {K:12534} 10/28/2005
Great mood, superb reds, excellent idea. I find it slighly out of focus, though. :-(
My best,
Endre


Brian Fillmore   {K:4016} 10/28/2005
Ina ,this looks a wall of crimson ready to engulf us all. Nice dof in this photograph.


Andrzej Pradzynski   {K:21408} 10/28/2005
Ina, you did it right again, despite all dominating reds one can still see the distinct elements of the beautiful composition in this image. Cheers, n.j


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks very much Rashed, the fall colors are still bright here :)


Linda Bique   {K:74033} 10/28/2005
I knew this was yours from the thumbnail Ina..Another very nice Fall image, love the fiery reds, very well exposed, nice rich patterns in the background and a beautiful light in the foreground...it must be just gorgeous there right now...lovely image...Linda


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thank you Linda, it WAS nice that day, not anymore... But the leaves are still on the trees, and not on the ground :) yet.


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Very nice comparison, Gabriela, I agree with you, red is symbolic of many things :) I thought this was one of them!


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks for your nice comments Mohamed :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thank you very much for your comments, Mohsen :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks Kathy, I have cropped my reds from a larger picture, tried to squeeze out any other colors to leave only the reds in. Wish I had used a tripod, but I was standing in a ditch for this one - LOL.


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks for your comments Ahmed :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Hi Endre, This is not one of the sharpest pictures I've made :) It is cropped from a larger picture to show only the reds, and I had the dilemma: if I USM'd too much, the background became spotty, and I wanted it blurred, so I found a middle ground... Thanks for your always good comments! Regards, Ina


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks Brian, I'm glad you like it :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/28/2005
Thanks for your comments, Andrzej :)


Gust@vo Sch3v3rin   {K:121677} 10/28/2005
Gran uso de la DOF, intensos y hermosos rojos.
Felicitaciones!


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/29/2005
Thanks Gustavo :)


Bob Walker   {K:1066} 10/29/2005
Wow!
Very, very bold! Awesome comp and colors.

Best regards,
Bob


Ann Nida   {K:45230} 10/29/2005
What a lovely idea. Very nicely done with the rich red in focus foreground and the out of focus background. It worked really well. Great image Ina. Cheers - Ann :)


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 10/29/2005
Thank you Ann, I think I'm done with this one for this season... A few more gory pumpkins for Halloween...


Hesham Abouzekry   {K:15777} 10/30/2005
vvvvery beautiful.
you love a lot of people.
H.A


Mark Longo   {K:12757} 10/30/2005
Red indeed. The world is on fire! Hi Ina, such a nice layering idea here, composing the near within the shadow of the far with the DOF completing the layered accent. Beautiful textures. Another winner!

Mark


György Szönyi   {K:8347} 10/31/2005
Very creative use of the DOF, Ina. But IMO the sharp leaves on the right side are not distinctive enough. The color seems to dominate, if not tyrannize the picture. My heart bends for the "peaches". Warm regards, György


Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 11/1/2005
Hi Gyuri, thanks for the comment. This one wasn't meant to contrast, it was meant to be just red on red, more or less DOF. I had a more contrasting version (see below), but I thought it was too cliche:

Contrasting Version


György Szönyi   {K:8347} 11/1/2005
Hi, Ina, I think only PS can create the kind of contrast I was missing on the pic. Of course this would not coincide with your intentions. Here is a try on my part, not perfect, just an idea. Best, Gyuri



Ina Nicolae   {K:44481} 11/1/2005
Hi Gyuri, I see, that's very nice. I didn't get it first. You increased the black, it's definitely more contrast, I like it :)


György Szönyi   {K:8347} 11/1/2005
Yes, yes, Ina. Although I have not only darkened the background but on a background selection I have applied the "Dark strokes" effect which has also resulted in more blur; and then with an inverse selection I have tried to add more contrast to the foreground leaves. Cheers, Gyuri
