About Three picture composite of a railway bridge, and the water reflecting the sky, with clouds and ice.
The two end pictures are about 99% of the full frame, the center is a square crop. With a stretch of imagination, the images form the word A - O - K.

Hi Ann, thanks for writing me here at the A-OK cafe. I didn't think my critique would last on the FP, I've appeared before for a brief moment, but I'm glad you came to visit :) Today it was sunny and warm(er) and I shot another bunch of still lifes. The 'rockmelon' is gone, it's been replaced by a mango :) Cheers, Ina

Sorry I missed this one Ina but I found it on the front page today so better late than never. I see you get the Miss Flappy Lips award today....well perhaps 15 minutes of fame as they do change fast but for however long it is I'm glad I didn't miss it cause this is an ingenious idea. Very creative of you Ina. Looks more than A-OK to me cause my imagination can stretch quite bit as you know. LOL I love all the diagonals and wonderful colour and textures here. Great work. A fantastic abstract.

Cheers from Ann :)

Thanks Aram for your comment, you seem to favor abstracts, by what I see :) I will pop one in now and then, when I get tired of lanscapes and still lifes :) Best regards, Ina

Very nice abstract. The sharp cuts incite the imagination to continue the shapes beyond the hiding surfaces. Imaginative idea, Bravo!

Thanks very much for your comment, Hugo! It's another way of using panoramas, for something other than they were intended :) The A-OK was an afterthought, it looked like a definite "K" but I tried to make the other two images say something, initially it was titled "Ice in the clouds" because each image has bits of ice in the water :) Cheers, Ina

Hi Andrzej, thanks for your comment! The title "A-Ok" is a slang expression meaning "everything is in perfect working order, perfectly OK" - it appeared in the 60's and was recorded as used by NASA during their Mercury program.

Ina, it's a great triplet with a nice linking colors. It's an elegant abstract with a great relaxing composition, but the message is criptic and you likely only know the meaning of A-O-K. Cool abstract and geometry play. Regards, n.j

Hi Ina, What I like most about this one is the naturally looking transition between the photos. The A-O-K is a nice touch, but I doubt if I would've made that connection if you hadn't hinted at it. I like this one a lot. Very good match of structures, , tones and elements. Very cool composition.

Cheers,

Hugo

Hi Eb, if you keep your height at 600 pixels, you can go beyond 1200 in length. Best regards, Ina

Very creative image, Ina! I was unaware you could upload a panorama over 1200 pixels - yours must be at least 1600 and difficult to view as an entity. The smaller view is remarkable in its ability to induce vertigo - at least for me. I think it is caused by the varying angles of perspective as the mind trys to sort it out and develop a singular point of view. It can't be done, however. And there is the surprise.

Or, it could be an M - K :)

Yes. This is like a highly ranked alphabet photo. More abstracted, though, and in color. Really nice.

The A and the K are really distinct, but the O is a little harder to make out.

Still on this theme, I'd love to go one day to Alberta (in Canada) to shoot the Calgary stampede, it's an awesome event :)

Thank you very much Gabriela, I wanted to post the clouds as a separate panoramic, but then I decided against it, since there are so many on UF, different clouds and colors, mind you, but still the same idea. Here they serve as a break from the angular shots.

THIS is a PAINTING!!! I was stunned when I looked at it in panoramic. The quality of the water is just like a canvas with an oil painting! Hat off, my dear Friend! This one is AGAIN an "Ina Original"! Fabulous idea!

Thanks Andre! This could be the faces of a rectangular box if you fold it along the edges :)

An interesting group for an abstract panarama Ina.
This one really gets your eyes moving around! I find myself jumping from image to image.

Hi Verena, in a couple of years, with all these technological advances, I'm sure 32" wide screens will be the norm :))))

Thanks Verena, I think it looks fine in the large format only (without enlargement); in the pano the texture details are available to see, only one piece at a time, it's much bigger than a normal screen! I wonder what it might look like on a wide LCD, though? Best regards, Ina

the combination works really great...

I tried the panoramic view...but there I have to scroll a lot to see the whole...mmmh...not sure if it is as you want it...

Cheers,
Verena
