Split Grass

[Steve Adkins]

Brand new to split toning... I'm learning from everyone's entries and decided to concentrate on texture...
Started in LR and desaturated, cropped and split toned with red/green.
In CS5 copied and flipped with reduced opacity. The resulting light cross-hatch gave PB-Oil a different twist.
Had to save at 29%.

All C&C welcome.

Steve,

Cool abstract... I like how you kept detail in the sunlit, upper part of the leaves. Nicely done.

Very interesting abstract of the grasses, Steve. It looks like the sunlight is bouncing all around. Great effect!

Steve, I really like the diagonals, like Richard and Maureen said it's a nice abstract!

[Kerry Perkins]

Cool Steve! I like the mottled light look and the interesting colors. It's cool that you have a blade of grass entering the frame in the LRC and another one exiting the frame in the ULC. Nice compositional element there.

Interesting effect on the grass. I like it. I'd crop out the top and focus in on the larger blades of grass, but that is purely a personal preference.

[Andrew McLachlan]

A very nice abstract Steve. I like the way the sunlight is falling on the grasses.
