What a clever idea! Love the pattern the inverted photo makes. Nice dark shapes against the light background. You can see the detail better because of the contrast. Nice work! Lynnmarie

This is very beautiful. I also love the colors. I like the framing and the textures are very soft looking. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan


Yes. I liked the original. It had a delicate and soft finish. One could feel the fluffy white ones flying. This one looks comparatively harsh on the eyes. But the light and shadow looks interesting.

This is nice and I must say, different, however, different is not always better. This photo does show that you were thinking and that's the important part.

You are right that this sure looks different, but very interesting. I am one of those that like the fist one best. With this one I think the three black dots on the right side is a little distracting.

Great photograph.

This does look like a great abstract, with good colors and tones in it I must say i like this as much as the original so great work and many thanks for sharing your experiment.

    Your very Welcome.
Comment from Lucien van Oosten


I think the image has a very nice abstract effect where the lines of the plant and the negative areas are all working together to create a interesting composition, of textures and space. I like all aspects of the altered image but the faded out edges, I think it draws the eye away from the nice flow going on within the image and as I'm seeing it is not needed because it competes with the fade out blues and change the depth and perspective there.

    Thank you very much. Glad you liked it. It is easy to change the fading. Actually have another without it.
Comment from amfunny


I actually like this one better.
It has more contrast and character.
Very creatively done.
The hint of blue works well.

    There you go. Somebody just told me they liked better the original. I of course knew that would happen. Personally I like them both. Thank you very much for the nice review, and I am glad you like the abstract.
