On my monitor, though, it looks a little dark. I think that there is some great detail of the clay statue and stuff that you can pull out. BR, Tim Dzerzhinski46 05-24-2005, 10:53 AM You know, thi reminds me of those "I Spy" books. A collection of objects scattered throughout the frame. I think it works here though. Like Tim said, it is a tad dark here and there, but not overly so. I like the fact that each of the objects are crisp and well defined. I like it very much. Drew P.S. What film did you use by the way? McMadCow 05-24-2005, 11:30 AM I like this shot a lot and I actually disagree with the previous critiques when it comes to how dark it is. I actually think you made a bold choice with keeping the the foreground as dark as you did. The only thing I do feel could improve, however, is that it seems to be lacking a focal point. I don't really feel my eyes being drawn to a main part of the image, therefore I feel like I spend my time scanning it over. That's just me, though, and it could be easily disputed. Nice work! jar_e 05-24-2005, 10:37 PM You know, thi reminds me of those "I Spy" books. Very nice analogy Drew! A beautiful shots, and I love the harsh black tones. Very well composed. Nice eye, Jared PlantedTao 05-25-2005, 06:54 AM Drew & Oldschool - I will try to lighten the photo a tad when printing to bring out more detail and give it that "I Spy" feel. MadCow- I won't lighten too much though :D The lack of focal point is kinda what I was looking for, because the shop was overwhelming to look at and had so much stuff that is what hard to find a focal point. Jared - I'm glad your starting to like my harsher blacks tones on some of my recent posts :) ;) Thanks for the comments and suggestions on improvement for this photo. Cheers. |
