| Jul 9, 2011 at 3:57 | comment | added | jaxxon | @jakub it's my Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 VR "micro". :-) Relatively little post. Just a bit of contrast/sharpen/saturation. | |
| Jul 8, 2011 at 23:40 | comment | added | Jakub Sisak GeoGraphics | @jaxxon: what hardware did you use? Is this the Sigma lens or the Nikkor? Any post processing at all? | |
| Jul 8, 2011 at 20:45 | comment | added | Jukka Suomela | I think the large version looks interesting; you can stare at it for a long time and find new features and patterns. However, I am not sure if this photo works equally well in the small scale. (Actually, my first impression of the small version was so different from the first impression of the large version that I had to double-check that they are really the same photo in different scales.) | |
| Jul 8, 2011 at 19:58 | comment | added | jaxxon | @martha - Your question is valid: I think it helps to get some insight into art to appreciate it. I see form. Light and shadow. Tonality. A play of sharpness (droplets and rivulets of water) vs. bokeh. I like the little union of the two red lights. That it's refracted by water tickles my senses even more. This is a purely abstract photo. It's not a photo OF something you can point to and say "I like flowers -- I like this photo". It's a game for the eyes to explore variations in tone, light, texture, color, etc. Gaining an appreciation for a form of art doesn't mean you have to like it. ;) | |

| Jul 7, 2011 at 6:34 | comment | added | jaxxon | @jakub Yeah.. My lens was new to me and I was in the passenger seat at a stoplight in the rain having some fun. :) Thanks guys! | |
