Hi Ken,

I normally really admire your work, but...
these panelized prsentations are an exception.

Perhaps if the border was narrower, and the secondary black & white borders eliminated...

But the bottom line is I would prefer a straight presentation without the panels.
Just one opinion.

Hey Ken, were these 6 separate shots or you divided one ? Either way, the 6 shots is really superb....love the subtlety of the light.

Thank you ! These are single photos which were subsequently cropped to a wide ratio and then divided up by drawing lines over the images, all done in Photoshop.

I was originally inspired by seeing the folding screen paintings of Hasegawa Tōhaku (Japanese, 1539 - 1610) and explored it with a landscape image in this earlier post.

Thank you for your helpful critique. Sometimes I post things here when I'm unsure and I'm grateful for forum member feedback.

As with everything we do in photography, there are many ways to make a panel image. Even minor changes in print color, border color and thickness make a difference. Some photos are enhanced when treated as a panel while others are worsened. I'm exploring and playing.

One approach is to mimic the folding screen approach where the dividing lines are minimal and unobtrusive. Another approach uses thicker separations, as though we are looking at the subject through a series of window panes. My guess is that different methods work for different photos.

Ken your sectioned images may also be a test for large wall prints.
