The Lady in the Turquoise Hat

[Pete Askew]

From at trip to Dessau-Wörlitze Garten at the weekend.

It is not a random stranger though!



Leica M10 + 35mm Leical Summilux M f1:1.5. ISO 200, 1/500s at f1/8.0. PP in LR / Nik ColorFX Pro 4.

I was thinking, "This is a really nice picture", but then I saw the curved green reed leading to the curves in the water, all leading to the Last in The Turquoise Hat, and I thought, "This is a really great picture!" From nice to great, just like that!

Ah, and now I've seen how the lowest water ripple on the right moves into the shadow on the boards.

And now I see the curves everywhere being echoed in the hat! This is EPIC!

Thanks, Rob.. And all I needed to do was ask Nora to look to her left and it all came together - mainly just luck though.

I'm glad Rob was here first to lead my eye. Fine image!

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks, Brian.

Well, images here have really stayed good and this is one of them I'd say. Lovely colours, leading "straw" and all. Honestly, quite serene.

Top notch image Pete.

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks, Ivar. Thanks, John.

I think Rob has said it all, that is a great one!
