Gate, Sandburg Estate 2005



Camera: Panasonic DMC-LZ2
Project: Experiment in the Orton technique. I'm not sure any of the online comments on this technique both understand what Michael Orton is doing, and how to emulate it in Photoshop. That includes me.

Comment: Violates a composition rule in that the gate angle and two bifurcating paths lead the eye away from the center of the image. However, my eye keeps trying to see "around" the red tree as it follows the lines and then bounce back to the center to try another path. Interesting.
