About Same subject like on "The devil was a piece of wood". The white translucent "ghost" is only my reflection on the window glass on a sunny day. Much like all that overload of "wonders" and "supernatural" and "deities" that never existed. The whole concept of religious convincement is solely the result of the wish to believe that somebody "upt there" has a "good plan". And if one wants to see ghosts, then they see them

The image looks rather "unfinished" to me. Perhaps it is too busy? Should I zoom in more toward the center? Any comments would be very welcome.

I always consider your advices, Gustavo, as I do with everybody else's advices too. In fact, most of what I do well goes back to advices of all the people. Still I have my own mind that has to interpret the advices. But this is also the most fruitful part of it all.

Cheers!

La verdad que tenes razón que esta foto sin la mancha perdería mucho interés, la mancha es la que le da el toque único. Reconsidero mi opinión en este caso...:-)

Un abrazo!

The series is about natural shapes, Aziz. It is the shapes that are the main thing and so a reflection is certainly a natural shape too. But the look of the image is something else of course. Not every natural shape is combinable with every other natural shape for a good image.

About cloning the branches, I do think that some less of them would remove that kind of "unfinished" look and tighten composition. But I must try that first and see if it does.

Cheers and thanks a lot!

Hi Visar!

Yes, he did me the favor to get entangled in the many branches! ;-)

Cloning off some branches would really work, I guess! It is a bit hard for me to so that in an adequate way since the image is so complicated and I would have to keep the cloned parts looking natural. But the idea is good!

Thanks a lot for that!

Cheers!

Wasn't the title "The ghost on the cross was a reflection", Gustavo? ;-)

Still I think that I'll have to try another one without the reflection, though I guess that then it would be just like the dozens of images of plants, trees, whatever. Let me see what comes out.

Cheers!

Thanks a lot for the nice comment, Indranil! This color combination appeals to us quite often, since our development as a species inluced coming so often in contact with that because it is so abundant in nature.

Cheers!

As an image of the nature, I don't like the so called ghost in the background !
But as an abstract and conceptual image, it's different.
The title and info are good.
Not so agree with clonning branches.

Hey Nick,

seems like finally we met J.(F.) Christ in his true shape- transparent and objective~ what a lucky accident! ;)

in fact so, it seems like there is a whole story waiting to be revealed here in a quite interesting topic (whose natures comply in beliefs), all behind those evergrowing branches that feed us and this green that sheds hope and the light that shapes all around- so lucidly!

as for the picture being unfinished, i, in fact find it working well. maybe cloning off some of the branches, and so giving more power of presantation to the cross, could be an idea (if that works for you). Otherwise, i would not like to cut any of the 'fingers' of the holy savior~ ;)

cheers,
v.

:-). un fantasma pasando raudamente delante de tu cámara, cómo es eso?, usted no creerá en esas cosas...no?----:-)

En mi opinión a mi me molesta un poco, me parece que sin la mancha sería mejor, pero bueno es mi opinión...;-)

Un abrazo!

I like the contrast and overall composition. Green and Red combination looks fabulous.
