genevieve_zevort 0 Posted February 21, 2003 I was back to try that critique feature, looking to see if the above (or below) pic was good enough for the next local photo club contest. Now I see all those fine, fancy, mastered art pictures submitted for critique. Gee. [scratch head] Then I wonder if there is any place on the internet where beginners are still at easy to discuss their not-so-mastered attempts without fear. Well, that's it, I suppose I gave the answer myself: the local photo club. See you there. Link to comment
hanna_cowpe 0 Posted February 21, 2003 What an amazing shot. The ziggy lines are a real problem on high contrast sharp lines. This shot looks great next to the old stone buildings. Good advert for Kodak Gold. Link to comment
roger_gelfand 0 Posted February 21, 2003 The lines that suddenly appeared are because your scanned image is now a 'Digital' image. As with all digital images, it is made with Pixels. If you take the physical method of 'screening' a print for printing (in a newspaper or magazine) the result is obtained by using a 'screen' made up of dots. (Use a magnifying glass on any photo in a book or newspaper - you will see that it is made up from these dots)Now if you were to take 2 of these screens on top of each other, you would get a "moire" (wavey) pattern. In effect this is what you have here. The fine lines of your shot (made up from pixels) and the computer screen - also made up from pixels. ...Result = MOIRE. (Nothing to do with Contrast) Does this help you understand? Keep up the nice work. Link to comment
jimvanson 0 Posted February 22, 2003 Over sharpened NO! As the previous gent said it's moire. You may want to play with the original using P/S's selective color channels. With that you can adjust the hi's, mids and shadows separately. If may make this very good shot even better...cheers Link to comment
