Title: Snow and Fence
Post by: stevenfr on May 17, 2019, 12:34:49 pm

This image is growing on me. I just made a small print at 17" x 23" off this image. I am thinking to see how it looks at larger sizes.

I love it. Japan?

'small print at 17" x 23"'?? We live in different worlds, Steven.

Thanks for the feedback on this one. It is Japan. I usually print from 30” x 40 to 43” x 57” for the non panos. Its easier to make money on the larger prints, given the galleries to their piece of the pie.  I wonder if this image will work large.

Thank you for the kind feedback on this one. I appreciate the thoughts.

Definitely similar snow and a fence. Although we had less snow. I like the colour and the grasses poking through the snow. You can not go to Japan and not be inspired from what Kenna has done. Japan and this sort of imagery in my opinion is easy to shoot compared to my normal chaos of forest imagery. Definitely fun to shoot, but not as challenging a subject matter. In ten shooting days I got over 95 images that I would consider worthy to print. Some similar on a theme. On a shoot in a aspen forest I am fortunate enough to get a shot a day if that. Finding compositions in chaos is pretty difficult.

Nice how the fence line pulls down the horizon.
