    Default Carnival No 7

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    ...in which our hero finds himself caught up in the midst of a group of dancers at the carnival...

    This image represents the rising passions of the frenzied dancing at the height of the carnival. Our hero can smell and taste the hot-house flowers :D
    Shutter speed for this was 1/8th and aperture was f/32. ISO 200. It is actually a huge crop. In PP I zoomed in on a part of an image whose colours I particularly liked and in which I imagined I could see the outlines of dancing bodies...perhaps you should start worrying about me now...:eek:
    As always, I look forward to your C & C's.
    Best regards to all,
    Nicki

    Lovely, Nicki! I might be prone to take about half of the horizontal band off the bottom but that's just my opinion...the colors and movement in this are beautiful!

    Nicki, It does feel like a frenzy. Very artistic impression and lovely colors. I'm thinking that the bottom adds a sense of chaos to the image w/ the different motion.

    Amazing colors, Nicki. I like this long framing similar to ones we see in Asian painting. Very nicely done.

    The red thing on the right looks like a raised arm possibly holding a drink. All in all I like the colors and the imagination.
