David, I really like these images, especially the color and vertical line of the first one, and how the trees in the background give it depth. I also like the color and texture of the second one, but the curvature throws me off. Nice work.

the first one is awesome. Love seeing the impressionist ones

Speaking of William Neil, I met him yesterday shooting the meadows near El Capitan. What a guy !!! Humility personified ..

Wow... am jealous. Of both shooting in the meadow and for meeting William Neill!

I like first one too. My mind is confused by it though, the whole "still photo evoking a sense of falling or vertigo" I think trips me out... I think in a good way! Definitely something to explore. thanks for sharing!!

Thanks... I think?!? Here's me thinking everything got simpler with images like these

Ernie... thanks. Holding the camera"straight on" to the scene allows for straighter lines, whereas panning the camera from low to high with a little twist results in the curvature of the lines.

Thanks. I guess there is something in the water lately with all of the impressionistic images being posted here.

very nice work and execution, #1 is my favorite!

The first one is absolutely gorgeous and a fine example of the technique.

Wayne

I gotta try this out sometime. The first one is really neat!

#1 is a nice abstract b/c of the lines/shapes. The second doesn't work so well for me.

Steve

Binh Ly, Wayne, reddevil, and Steve... thanks for the encouragement - much appreciated. #1 is fast becoming a favorite of mine, and will probably get it printed large just to see how it looks.
