Assignment 4: Light & Abstract

The fourth and last assignment of the photo workshop spring 2010 organized by C&C photography is Light & Abstract.
I had a hard time with this assignment, both with light and landscape. The light seems to be very hard in Holland or at least at the time I made the photos. And landscapes are not something I normally make photos of. I always feel that a real subject or something interesting is missing when I try to make one. The landscape photos above are from the floodplains from the river (IJssel) that gave the name to the province (Overijssel) that I live in. Lots of birds live there or stay there for a while when migrating.

I learned so much from this workshop. The assignments made me look differently and made me experiment with things and I had so much fun during it. To look at the photos from all the participants was wonderful too. I learned so much by seeing how others make photos and see their world.
Thank you so much for this fantastic experience and I can’t wait for the next workshop.

  3. When I see your work I think "fresh". Beautiful abstract and macros...I think the light is stunning, really illuminates your beautiful images. Your landscape collage is Fabby, you really have an eye for compostion. I am so glad you joined the group and so pleased that you had a good experience.
    All the best and we'll see you next time.

  6. I think your landscape pictures, especially the last are wonderful. You really capture the feeling of the place (well I think so at least, having not visited there). Beautiful!

  7. I love the rose series with your little one, such beautiful soft light on her face. The reflections and landscapes are so appealing. I'll be checking in regularly, so happy we had this opportunity to meet.

  14. Die eerste foto, groen met groen met groen met creme - MOOI! En je close-ups van de roze roos! De weerspiegeling is prachtig en je landschapsfoto's zijn ècht geweldig - ik voel hetzelfde over landschapsfotografie, maar vind wat je hier gedaan hebt toch wel HEEL goed gelukt! En jammer dat je al die vogels niet kunt horen bij de foto's - die maken het 'beeld' compleet :)

  15. Oh my, you really shone in this project Jane!! Great photos all of them. The reflection one is my favorite because it is perfectly balanced top and bottom, yet abstract because of the reflection! Gorgeous! Im glad to have met you through this workshop!

  18. you've told a sort of mini color story in your sets of photos, and i love the light that infuses your photos. my very favorite is the water and grasses -- the curved shape of the grasses and their reflection with the straight line of the water is so great! thanks for sharing your lovely work with us!

  19. There are so many beautiful photos that it is difficult to pick favourites. The first green collage is beautiful, so is the one with the pink roses. And I love your landscape collage.
