A walk in the woods!!!

[Bibhav Behera]

In this image, I intentionally shook the camera at an angle to get a paint brush stroke effect. I wanted a dreamy feel to the image to add to the mystery of the path through the dark woods.

Nikon D80, 18-135mm at 66mm
SS 1/6 sec (-0.3 EC)
f/10
ISO 200


Would love your views on the same. Comments and Critiques welcome.

You have pushed us into a tunnel -Khudito Pashan (Hungry Stone) ! Would have been better in absence of some scattered light in the central portion in the top.Inside the tunnel ,you are alone.You suddenly hear someone invisible shouting in total darkness :

"SAAB JHUT HAI, SABB JHUT HAI"

A new perspective,a new thought.I like.Thanks for sharing.SaktiWild

Seems like a long empty path waiting to be explored. The smudged look is giving this image a very painting like feel. Nice attempt at something different.

[Abhishek Jamalabad]

Nice. The paintbrush stroke idea works well here. I think we had seen a similar image (but without the shake) from you long back, shot with the Nikon kit if I remember correctly. Is this the same area?

Hi Abhishek,
This was shot very close to the place whose image I had posted almost 2 years back. This too is shot with the Nikon Equipment, however on my recent trip to Bhitarkanika.

Often, blurred images impart a dreamy feel and can result in interpretations. May be moving the camera vertically would have been better.

Cheers,
