Dry Grass

Here is a “busy” sort of shot with a lot packed into the frame. I’ve done some tonal editing and aimed for just one stem to be in focus, but with an overall “soft” feeling. Any thoughts?

I like it Stephen.

Very nice, almost looks like a magazine shot to set the scene for some interior design kind of layout.

Thanks Rob. I was worried it my be too “busy” but I was also trying to fill the frame.

Busy in the sense of a lot of discrete parts but the repetition leads the mind to translate the multiples as “one”. That juxtaposition of many = the same is part of what engages. The tonal difference between subject and background also helps reduce the literal clutter.

Many thanks, that helps 😀
