Abstract Leaves

These are close-up leaves of a Sago Palm.

I am trying out pictures for the next PhotoClub night - the topic is Abstract...

No PP work done on this, just closely photographed, trying to blur the leaves.

Please look at the workshop - I have done a negative PP effect on this photo - please tell me what you think

Which one do you prefer? PLEASE.

Hi Janice

I like the symmetrical waves of the 2 palm fronds. A nice subtle, yellow/green vs blue colour contrast too, with excellent dof & sharpness. Workshop looks great. The blue & pink contrast well. Tfs!

Very creative and the colors are beautiful. A very soothing picture to look at. TFS

Hi Janice, the colours and shapes work well. It's hard to choose between this and the workshop version.
Have a good trip.
Cheers, Pat.

Hello janice.
Cant see anymore " Palm" trees. Iam dreaming almost of it.! haha.
Hot but very lovely down here at Langkawi.
We enjoy it very much.
Groeten van Meri en Jan
Kia ora.

Simplistic beauty janice, I like the out of focus with just the focused tips, well photographed

Hi Janice,
I really like this picture, lovely bright greens, and great shape. I prefer this one much better than your workshop. ;)
Good luck for the Photoclub!

PS: Im done with the smiley thing. be back for it! ;)

Hi Janice,
I like this one, the colours are beautiful. The shallow depth of focus suits this image, sharp right through, and it's just another 'plant shot'.
Enjoy your trip to the Mainland, you should see all the stunning Autumn colours.
Look forward to some stunning images from you.
Cheers,
Pete.

This one .... lovely soft colours, I think the other looks unnatural.
I love it!!

In truth, I really prefer the green one
As for the rest: your composition is wonderful and your unusual PoV is perfect
