Martin Scorsese often uses the effect of filling the entire frame with a single colour - he did it very effectively with red in Kundun to show the slaughter of the Tibetans. I've done shots like this myself, but never as effectively as this one, despite the minor misgiving. You're on a bit of a roll at the moment.
-- Bob =========== Thanks, Bob, I seem to be. :-) Course, the minute I say that, I won't be. Thanks too to Paul, Godfrey, and Bruce. I do have one other similar but with less out of focus in front, Bruce, that I will put into my GESO. But no, I have none where all is in focus. As you guys could figure out this was an experiment -- I focused in the middle of the field to make it more a mass of flowers than about individual flowers. And as with all experiments, some work, some don't. I think this worked mostly. However, I knew the out of focus flowers in front might be a problem. So this would probably be a good photo to "artify" and if I can figure out how to artify the front without artifying too much of the middle and back, I will. Something to mush up the flowers in front so they look even more impressionistic and not just out of focus to most eyes. May take me a while. But if I ever achieve it, then I will repost it to list. Thanks for the feedback on my experiment. Marnie aka Doe :-) ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone.
