A little memoriam for co-workers and other brave souls that died in the 9/11 tragedy. The works of Sandburg's poem "I am The Grass" seemed appropriate in a way both melancholy and hopeful.
At any rate, I tried some new processing techniques here to establish baseline / sea level black and whites. I think they worked pretty well but will require some use and experimentation to make regularly useful.
Composition Note:
I really liked the way this composed up in the view finder. Surprisingly (or maybe not), the way the angles fall on the main left and right blades of grass at the top burst also fall very close to the harmonious golden section diagonals. More interesting is how nicely they line up with the trunk and branches of the tree as well. Fun.
Mother Nature is the first and greatest Geometer, always.
Taken with the f1.4 50mm on the 20D so effective focal length of about 80mm.
