The lack of depth of field definition somehow removes the affect of framing from this - the difference in scale is not enough to really suggest a foreground element and a background; that, and the sheer amount of greenery. Tonally, it's pretty good - accurate rendition of shades, even the grey of the water. There's a bizarre quality of over-compression, yet without the halo-ing effect one would associate with sharpening normally. Very pixelated looking. That gives a quite likeable grainy feel to it, were the subject a touch more suited to that kind of feel: this pleasant natural scene doesn't, to my eye, benefit much from it. |
