Theme: Wood Terrain

[Michael Gerald-Yamasaki]

The texture suffers a bit from the low resolution, but most of it is there. Processing is the standard bits NR, SEP for tonal adjustments & detail, Topaz adjust for color after luminosity blend. Added a homegrown texture process - I've shown some before, it uses the tonal gradient direction with an aligned directional texture.... The short fine lines seen most clearly in the lighter parts on the far right.

Thanks for looking.

Cheers,

Lovely organic shapes and textures. Beautiful subtle colors. Nice to see the blue and brown together. I wish there was more of a balance between the light and dark areas.

Very nice image with a title to match. This would probably look great in black & white, too, but the color adds so much. The flow of the image -- especially with the depression placed in the center of the frame -- is wonderful. I like what you did with the tonal gradient. A large version of this in a simple frame would be a great focal point in a contemporary space.

Very organic - I like the different gradations of brown and blue and the different shapes and textures.

The light, the colours, and the textures are all very beautiful in this.
