Chal 34 ginger again

[ginger_55]

Flight: by ginger yesterday (Sat) Is this minimalism? I practiced on flying birds yesterday. These came out. The background is from PS gradients. I like it, don't know why. That is the size the pelicans were, the whole frame, I would be afraid of grain if I made them larger.

I didn't clean up the grain because I forgot about it, now I figure if no one likes it, I will not need to clean up the grain.

I think the background is very cool indeed....it may be because I've only had 3 hours of sleep and I am completely delirious at this point....but something seems missing. and I can't quite put my finger on it. perhaps you should smack me for posting in such a state of mind. :rofl You've had some good shots so far for sure!

Maybe it looks like it should be the american flag or something. I am so bored with my entries.

hope you feel better. I am going to watch tv

gYou have a good idea going there. I do think color would work, but muted, not too hot.

I really like this one.. but I'm not sure about the bird sitting on top of the post..for me (and I have a bad cold so I have no room for brain) the bird makes it less minimal.. if you get my drift..I'd like to see if without the grain and DUST MOTTS .. :1drink

I could take the bird off easily, lol. With the clone tool I could wipe out countries. I find that funny for some reason.

But I looked for the ever prevalent dust and didn't see it, will look again.

I love both pictures. :thumb The pelican shot works really well as a minimalist idea, but I long to have the birds a bit larger in the frame. Color might punch it up, but then adding color could ruin it. :dunno If you like the photo, it is probably worth playing with a bit. Anyway, I think it is great as is. :clap

Ginger:

I love both of these shots. Nice composition and very creative, especially #1.

The noise in #2??? well, I don't know. I never automatically assume noise is a negative. I think it can be used creatively and effectively at times.

The Approaching Storm

The Yellow Submarine (I never listened to the Beatles, don't know what it is about, etc.)

But is it minimal.I think I like it ginger.. this is so hard this time.. is the blue maybe too blue?? I think I'm not a good person to comment this time.. I'm confused and sniffing..and am feeling very minimal..:uhoh :1drink

[ginger_55]

It may be too blue, it started as a blue sky, I couldn't seem to get away from it. I am going to put some of the others up. I am sorry about your cold, but I would gladly take it from you to have that doorway with the snow and trees shot.

These were all I liked. I was confused on minimal. I do know that I kept bringing the yellow kayak back to the original color. It is the focus.
This is from Saturday, the folder is called "yesterday's wasted shots". Remember no birds, smile. I do like the marsh. I have trouble photographing it.

Thanks, Lynn. Before everyone mentions the noise, I want to say I am aware of it, and I will run it thru Noise Ninja. Going out now.
