    Re: Mexican Dresses

    I like all the colors a lot. Its very eye catching. The only thing i see (which is not a big deal, nor does it take away from the image) is the right side has a lot less going on then the left. I kind of wish there was more things on the right side.... overall i like it, good job

    I love the colors. I wish the pink one was facing directly on, like the other two are though. And the wooden pole on the left is a little distracting. But overall, I like it.

    Hi GB,
    I like the idea. I think the position of the manequin on the right makes the shot more interesting. Also the manequins being hanged by a string add a weird factor to the shot.

    Re: Mexican Dresses

    Thanks guys and gals.. I am sort of drawn to the colors myself. The pastels are mesmerizing or something. I really wish that left pole wasn't there, but PSing it out would be a lot of work. I need to shoot in Mexico more often.

    Well, I've decided to examine this shot for the color values and keep a cheat-sheet of them available for future graphic arts projects. They all just seem to work together so well.

    I don't know what to do about that stick Greg ... it may be a PS project for me.

    Lori, I can pick it up for ya if you want when I return in about 3 weeks ...

    Gosh I love sun dresses and especially with a pretty lady in them, but really it is a nice shot. The stick bothers me..but not much else to critique.
