Question Could you explain what this image is about? Wolverine XI 21:10, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Info In short: photographic art as described. In long: Explaining photographic art is certainly not easy, but I can say something about how it came about. The motif was a tree trunk with a varied structure - with different shades of green and brown. This tree trunk was photographed using the "Intentional camera movement" technique, so that the corresponding movement effect was created. The direction of movement of the camera was parallel to the tree trunk. The exposure time was chosen so that the structure of the trunk was still preserved. (It was only an exposure time of 0.6 seconds, so not too little and not too much). In post-processing, the image was edited so that the contrasts were emphasized and at the same time the colors were made a little more saturated. The resulting image was the basis for the image shown here. In the final step, the image was duplicated (in 2 layers) and one layer was mirrored in order to achieve the symmetry effect. Both layers were then blended together so that the dark tones were dominant. --XRay 💬 04:57, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your explanation;

Support I don't know if this is art. We usually only know this after the artist's death. But I think it's well done.--Famberhorst (talk) 15:42, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Neutral I don't know what to say about this. I will hear the opinion on the other editors. --Zzzs (talk) 16:58, 10 July 2024‎ (UTC)[reply]

I find your statement remarkable and honest. It is understandable. I have had these difficulties myself and still have them today. For me, it is a further development of photographic creativity. I first had to make friends with ICM, but I already enjoy the pictures that are created with it. I also have a preference for symmetries. I can only recommend trying out lots of things and being creative with photography. --XRay 💬 20:06, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support IMHO it is Art --Berthold Werner (talk) 14:16, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support I really like how we still get a "tree-feeling" from this, even though the ICM turned it into a geometrical abstract. I also love the colours. --Kritzolina (talk) 16:53, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support per Kritzolina. --SHB2000 (talk) 01:30, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
