Anhinga View

[denise ippolito]

I took this image in the Everglades at Anhinga Trail-it seemed a bit busy so I did an IR treatment w/ color-efex, Then I painted in some blue for a bit of interest. This is my first image like this and I'm not sure if it works,let me know.
PS- I was thinking I should crop a bit off the left side.

Denise, for me this isn't working...there's just not a strong enough focal point to hold my interest. If there had been one stand out bird or tree or rock I think it would have been super - I like your technique - but I'm just not feeling this one. My eyes are all over the place.

Hi Denise,
Yeah....it's a bit busy and the center of interest as Jules mentioned .....is lacking. I will give you props for trying.....as this does have an interesting look to it......so keep it in mind and try this with other images.....because it looks to have a ton of potential!

Thanks Roman I appreciate the encouragement! Something about it caught my eye -I just can't seem to zone in on what that is.
