Fall Forest Abstract
previous / next (11-11-09)I shot this crazy abstract at the Rutgers Co-operative Extension by moving the camera as I clicked the shutter using a slowish shutter speed. None of the effect was done in Photoshop. I only did basic RAW adjustments and adjusted curves in Lightroom 2. I did this because there was not too much color left on the trees after all the rain we had so I thought it might be fun to play with some crazy techniques.
I took quite a few crazy shots like this at different parts of the park and there were paths and fields and several bodies of water. It is hard to remember exactly where this one was shot, but the band along the bottom leads me to believe it was by the water. At any rate this was one of my favorites.

Hi Laurie:

I simply love these types of abstracts. They are very painterly and the really nice thing is that you never know what you are going to get. In this case, you've got a beauty. Couldn't you see this hanging in the hall, or perhaps behind a sofa. Wonderful!
