It is not always necessary that a photo that looks beautiful has to be technically “correct” as well. The settings could be slightly off and the image could still come out looking visually pleasing. Take for instance the following image taken by photographer Chris Robinson. If you really peep at the details, you will see a few technical “faults”. We do not know if it was intentional. But in spite of that, the image does look quite pleasing:
“Spring in Rochester, New York” by Chris Robinson (Via Reddit. Click image to see full size.)
Robinson shot the image at Highland Park in Rochester, New York. While the place is well known for the beautiful Lilac trees that bloom during spring, this tree that he shot here is of Dogwood.
It has to be the beautiful blend of the purples and the greens that add so much vibrance to this image. And then there’s a slight hint of misty conditions in the background that add to the mood of the image. But if you start looking closer, you will realize why the same image is not technically sound.
First off, the barks of the tree are not supposed to appear so magenta – they’re brown. This is a strong indication of the wrong white balance. Or maybe the photographer did so by personal choice. It’s the same thing with the thin layer of mist on the background. It too has a magenta tint to it.
Also, if you look close to the branches and the flowers, especially those that are right against the bright sky, then you’ll see how high the level of chromatic aberration is. Even the image appears too soft. It could be because he was using a basic lens with the aperture narrowed down.
Nevertheless, the massive chromatic aberration and purple fringing give this photo an interesting aesthetic. This is not something that you can say about every other photo. What do you feel about this image? Let us know in the comments.
