Okay gang tell me what ya think.

I think chopping the sides and top/bottom is distracting leading ones eyes to a dead end.

HiYa Duane. Sometimes I'm a toad and sometimes I'm a frog. Better not let sci-fi see you here...lol

I do like the slow shutter giving the motion effect.

Hello Toad! I have seen you around here in a lot of places! I'm sure Scifi knows we are here ... ya only posted a link! He's lurking about somewhere ...

About the photo ... lol ... I didn't crop it. I couldn't get any farther way from it since the YoYo fence was right behind me.

I have more that you have seen already and I'm gonna put them in here to see what people think.

Heading to Bloomsburg State Fair to get some more tomorrow or Friday.

i like this shot alot, however i feel that the sides and top need to be shown, understanding there was a physical limit- that just means you need a wider lense :-)


btw where in PA are you from?

Neat shot. Good choice of SS. I can live with the sides and bottom clipped off, and that it might have even been preferrable, but I feel that the top should have had space. I don't know why, but I just think that the it seems to be 'rising' and that it could have had some space at the top to expand out to.

Well done. I love time exposures and motion.

Cheers,

I'm not so sure being cutoff bothers me that much. I like the wonderful colors. But I might have PSed the flair just below the center> easily fixed but more distracting than the crop. You also might layer it to make the colors pop a little more....

yea, wider lense would be much better, but dont feel bad, im the newbie around here too, trying to remember everything from photography class....not going well, pluss, i am soon going to be getting a new camera, this time a manual.

I used a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-N1 it's a fancy point and shoot, no interchangable lenses. I'll get something better when I get the hang of photography.

Dylan8i: I live close to Wilkes-Barre.

GB1: What's SS?

Jbaldocchi: Thank you.

Greg McCary: I did take the flare out but posted the before photo by mistake. I don't know how to layer ... My wife hasn't taught me that yet ... lol.

Chrislowshow: I have never been to a class ... self taught and it shows! lol

For everyone: Thank you for your help!
