Tree in Motion III

[Pete Askew]

Final one for now I think. And following on from http://www.realphotographersforum.com/abstract-still-life/11354-rage.html, I thought I'd play with the colour variants more. Here is an example.

Hasselblad 503CW + Zeiss Sonnar 180mm f1:4 onto a PhaseOne P45 back. ISO 100, 1/15s at f16. PP in LR + border in Nik ColorFX 4.

I also like the detail and I suspect I will end up shooting again with an even longer focal length.

I do like bits of it, here and there, though I find the colour a bit in my face, so to speak. I really like the movement of the outer branch areas, the greens and browns. But overall, the movement is wonderful.

Thanks Rob. I know what you mean about the colour. My original intention was to produce a series in monochrome. But I'm also quite taken by the sort of oil painting feel of the smeared yellows. They are more or less what I was after when I was watching them the other day. Tricky.

I understand. Big Vince (van Gogh) came to mind...
