Very ornery looking
Negative space *and* minimalist
Hay!
@sinnerjohn what do you reckon?
He mentioned in the IOTM thread he was going “off the grid” for a few days.

You just can't get the staff these days!
Saw that - said he’d be back to wind up IOTM . . . So, by my time zone . . . and the phase of the moon . . . I reckon i’d have at least twelve hours before he started tapping his watch (and/or foot)
So Negative space open for a period not exceeding 24 hours from now

You have a lot of nerve posting these, especially the first one, after I have used all my nominations for IOTM.
Sorry. I’ll try to be more considerate in the future.

Ok back from my adventure up a Welsh mountain (well the foothills of Cader Idris anyway).
To sum up, I'm awarding on my idea of what negative space is, in regard to photography, which may be correct or just my view.
Some of the images absolutely nailed it and some didn't, for this subject anyway as all the images were of a high standard as ever.
My idea of negative space is that a large area of the image has absolutely nothing in it, either black or coloured but definitely no texture whatsoever.
So for instance I loved ImageArt Ann's 'One step for mankind image' but the imprint of the foot, the beach, the wet edge of the water all have some texture and make the image interesting to look at as a whole.
Anyways, the Gold is taken by JillyG who really nailed this theme for me with 'Floating' the negative space, in this case black really highlighting the flower.
Jilly's other images were all outstanding and it will be interesting to see how the Peace Lily (I think) does in this months IOTM.
Silver goes jointly to ImageArt and deepop , who's images were very similar so I just couldn't decide....
Bronze goes to rizole who's cat image is as ever irresistible.
HM's to lkbside and Geek1956
Over to you JillyG

Well done again Jilly! Have to say the rose image does fit the brief perfectly, with the rose neatly and subtly anchored in space by the ghostly leaf. Great artwork all round, I am going to have to raise my game considerably, or ill end up in negative space too!

Nice one, Jilly. Congrats to Ann, Rizole, and the HMs. Thanks,John, for aspot in second.
I’m glad you mentioned the leaf because, somehow, it was quite important to me to leave it in. Thank you.Well done again Jilly!
