View across the treetops of Central Park (NYC) in winter. Desaturation, diffusion, toning, layer masks, blur, sharpen and liquify to exaggerate the twisted branches. Comments appreciated.
Coming back to this photo: now I know that I would prefer to see the gras going to the same direction, like a strong wind. Is it possible to "liquify" like that, Jim?
I have looked at this several times and each time I see it differently, perhaps that is a good thing, I can imagine this in a world without man, the plants would take over again... it is a little spooky, well done for something so different - Richard.
A claustrophobic feel to these trees, I like it, very artistic, the city looking somewhat peaceful in the background, the park foreboding and impenetrable.
Normally, I'm not terribly fond of liquify either, but this is excellently executed! Not just "playing for effect" but "applying for impact." good vision.
I thought Central Park was supposed to be safer these days? I sure as hell wouldn't go in there if it looked like that! Super groovy cool Jim and the colour gives it that cold, scary look. Well the trees do most of that but you know what I mean.
