Fresh As Dew
As promised, this is the vertical version of “Frozen In Tranquility”. Between the two shots, this was my favourite one initially. However, I am beginning to find the horizontal one more appealing. This one has the ‘orange bit’ cloned out for a change. Of course, the contrast and saturation was boosted up significantly to achieve this final look. Which one do you like better?
Colours wise, i prefer this one since the green is more natural and there’s less reflection on the water. However, composition wise, the landscape version definitely shines thru. My guess is the position of the lines which is longer at the top and diagonal and it takes the horizontal version for the guiding effect to be more pronouce. hehe, just guessing….
I think a prefer the landscape oriented shot because it conveys the idea of a miniature landscape compared to this portrait orientation. Both are great shots Eng Loy.
