    Lynn, I much prefer the orignal composition and lighting, it's very nice indeed. I can't help but wonder what it would look like if that tree were a little more centered in the window - maybe a bad idea, but I do wonder.

    Yeah, I like the first one I saw best, myself. I think we are getting a little hyper on this minimal thing. The way we are approaching it, the winner maybe should be one who posts just black or white with a title.

    You know I researched this, and there is a great deal of "interpretation" of the meaning of minimal, in the examples I saw.

    I got a book from the library on it, saw your post and haven't opened it. It will be art and sculpture anyway, but I was hoping to get an idea. I think yours was better than anything I could come up with. Even if I had everything else, you have that D snow which just sets off the white minimal look. But I did like the light.

    The recent one just screams minimal, but I think it screams it only for the sake of the style, for the sake of the photograph, I like the light, and it is still minimal in my mind. And much more minimal than examples I have seen.

    After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    I like the framing on this one better, as it is not cropped as tight as the others with the light on the floor.

    It feels more balanced to me. Whether you use the extra light fill or not, I would use this placement.

    Nice shotthumb.gif .

    P.S. I liked your B/W table shot. Kinda reminded me of something from Close Encounters with the bright light under the table. Any visits from ET?
    this is it!!! clap.gif :cheer I really like how the window is in the left 1/3 of the frame and the tree trunk is in the right 1/3 of the window....very nice balancing act you got goin' on my dorky girlfriend!
