davidmccracken 2 Posted July 10, 2004 Just having fun with an old photograph! Would appreciate some feedback! Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 10, 2004 I take it you like it Fabio! Thanks for stopping by! Link to comment
stevekranz 0 Posted July 10, 2004 This is quite creative, although I think it would look better without a shadow on the stem to make it look like the stem is in the air not touching the surface. Unless that was what you were after. Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 11, 2004 Stephen, I think the shadow gives it a more 3 dimensional feel! After all it is a real chilli. Thanks for taking the time to comment! Link to comment
owen_omeara 1 Posted July 11, 2004 David; Never have I seen a more attractive chilli. I would like to say that it tops all of your work with women but that might be a small fib. ;-)) -Owen Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 11, 2004 Owen, I am surprised and pleasantly shocked that you have taken the time to comment on this! I really did not think it would be something you liked! Thanks! By the way! I am sure, even though you have not seen it in black and white, that this is much better in colour!!!! Link to comment
owen_omeara 1 Posted July 11, 2004 PS. It was your photographs of chilli's thay got me to start looking at your pictures in the first place. All of this just goes to prove that I am not entirely a person with a single focus. That may be a lie but I don't think so. -Owen Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 11, 2004 I am glad you like my Chillis Owen! I will try to think of a completely new project sometime! Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 13, 2004 I think my PS skills will have to go a long way to catch up with you. I appreciate you taking the time to comment! Link to comment
wenger 0 Posted July 13, 2004 Well I don't think I would want to suck on a chili pepper at length (though I have been in a chili eating contest before, so I'm not really adverse to these buggers). I agree with Stephen about removing (or lowering) the shadow beneath the stem. It can still look real, just that the stem is more in the air than it appears here. I also wonder how this would look in only shades of green, red, yellow and orange. You know, kind of like the scales they use to indicate how hot a pepper is. Nice work. Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 13, 2004 I wouldn't want to argue with someone who is willing to eat these in a competition! I am beginning to understand what you mean about the shadow under the stem! I guess I missed it before! Maybe I will contribute more 'Chilling' photos later! Thanks for stopping by! Link to comment
wilsontsoi 0 Posted July 14, 2004 Hi David, what a great idea and very well executed! Would it be even better to have neutral colour shadow? Just an option. Very cool. Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 14, 2004 You are correct! Well! The shadow of yours looks more natural. Having said that the main subject isn't natural. Link to comment
wilsontsoi 0 Posted July 14, 2004 ...but I always thought Rainbow Peppers do exist! No? ^_^ Link to comment
davidmccracken 2 Posted July 14, 2004 Howard, Again thanks! I wouldn't disagree with Wilson! Well.... I would but maybe not in this case. Strange as it may seem, Wilson's comment makes sense as does his shadow, but I have been looking at the 'coloured' shadow of the original for more than a year, that it makes it difficult to get out my head! Oh well! Link to comment
