Please enjoy.

Both are excellent shots! Great job on both.

matt_paul85 · 09-04-2008, 07:20 PM

Yet again.. Amazing stuff! The second one really pulls me in for some reason. I really like that one. Great job!

Slaphead · 09-05-2008, 02:04 AM

SympL, I just don't know how you do it. Yet again fantastic

It's always exciting to see a new post by you because there's always something special inside

SympL · 09-05-2008, 01:07 PM

93rdcurrent, matt_paul85 and Slaphead thankyou for your comments and kind words, much appreciated.

I'll just echo what Slaphead said. Beautiful.

ernie · 09-08-2008, 06:20 AM

amazing. how did you get the sun to make a star like that? is that done with a long exposure (like nighttime photography) or a filter of some kind?

PhotosByAndy · 09-08-2008, 08:11 AM

These are great compositions! I really like the second shot - the leading lines of the shadow to the grass and the fine detail in the sand. Very nice!

Making the sun into a star is generally caused by small aperture openings - it can be a cool effect. Not saying that is how the OP created it but call it a guess.

Amazing i love both of them.

SympL · 09-08-2008, 02:07 PM

Fox Paw, Ernie, Andy and Cameron thankyou very much for your comments.
Ernie, this was indeed achieved by stopping down and in this case may have been as small as f29 or f32.

Dubious Drewski · 09-08-2008, 02:12 PM

Both are very nice and minimal. I really enjoy the second one. The texture and lines are perfect in direction and composition. You ARE going to print these out and hang them on your wall/sell them so others can hang them on their walls, right?
