Pressing Victory

February 27, 2002

Ditto the comments above. For me the photo is over underexposed. The autoexposure of the camera wants to maket make the white falls into an 18% grey card. The photographer needs to compensate for this by addind about two stops to the exposure. That way the rest of the picture is also clear. The trees in the background are to dark. Also try using slower film, 200 is not bad. For bright sunny days 100 or 50 might be better.

Use a tripod.

I would crop the left and bottom. There is too much dark space.

This is generally overexposed. It needs a polarizer to help prevent that washed out look. At 14 mm you have to watch vignetting in the corners. 100 speed film or silde film often gives better colors.

You bring back many memories. I really enjoyed wrestling in my youth.

I would crop out the bridge.

Bad camera shake.

For me there is to much blur to get a feel for the overall picture. Who is she, what kind of dance is it? One needs that perfect balance between motion and clarity. That is hard to do.

I like it.

You did not indicate which film you used. Consider using slow film or even slide film such as Velvia. This will give you better colors.

Many lenses are much softer on focus at f-22, consider using f-8 for the maximum lense sharpness.

In your introduction you said you used a tripod, but in the picture page you said it was hand held. Obviously 2 seconds is to long to hand hold any lense, consider using a beanbag for long exposures. A mirror lockup would help. (the N-80 doesn't have one) 2 seconds is to long for any scenic where there is any wind at all.

I agree with the previous poster, the picture appears under exposed. I also agree there needs to be a center of focus, a reason for esixtence. These are my thoughts I am not a pro.

Crop the bottom.

I'm so sad, I have to be in the office. I would like a little more depth of field.

I like your color.

I wish you could have fill flashed the horse, he is a little underexposed for me.

Cropping on the top and bottom would improve the picture.

I like reflections. In this case I would try a polarizer, warming polarizer, or a different time of day. For me the tree in the upper right is distracting.
