Photo Contest 8

[Varaj]

Grass 1 vs Grass 2

[Bagpuss]

both pretty dull if you ask me.

[Xavier Lang]

Grass 2, Grass with Water for the serene win.

[Kastil]

While I like the colors of #1, I'm going with #2 because the general flow of the picture is nicer. The reflection of the clouds in the water plus the fog rolling in is really beautiful.

[Harry]

Both very similar. Marsh grasses, coastlines, evocative skies...

I'm going with the second, partly because of the composition and the crisper colors, but mainly because it seems to be a late afternoon, verging on sunset, and the other is a morning shot, and I'm simply NOT a morning person.

I feel the photographers are trying to do too much with both pictures - distorted perspectives, soft lenses or whatever. The first photo was just one pegasus short of something that hung on my sisters wall cirka 1982. I picked the second one, but it was just a matter of which one I disliked the least.

[Black Angel]

Number 2 for me also, the reflection of the sky in the water really makes the picture.

[John Thirten]

I agree that the photographer is attempting too much in both. The second seems the better of the two, either way.

#1 it appeals to me, still no putty cats :confused:

#2's sky won my vote.
