    The Great Escape

    I agree about the photo being way too 'muddy'. The highlights are just not strong enough. I think either print it with a higher contrast, or next time, even though this was probably a split second thing, very quick, blah... try to expose subjects with highlights like this (where the fur of the cat is white fur) a little longer so it is white in the print also. However, since the shade of the blinds in relation to the subject is almost completely insignificant, you can probably do more work in the darkroom to brighten this kitty up. Other than that, I hope SOMETHING I said was helpful and you did a great job of being at the right place at the right time. I personally like the crop you have on it now. nice job.

    Not sure if I like this, I'm having trouble critiquing it since it is

    my own image. I would like to hear what you all have to say about it.

    Wow, nice... The sense of isolation and liberation I feel when looking at it are very rewarding. It's a refreshing shot, bravo. The only one tiny thing that I am still undecided about is the land in the back. I think it might look better without it.
  1. I know this photo makes me feel a certain way, however I wonder how

    it makes other people, who don't really know my friends, feel. I'd

    like to hear any comments that you might have, or critiques. Also,

    the grain is very strong on this picture, I wish it wasen't, and it

    seems to be taking over all of my photos! I used tri-x 400 rated at

    400 and this exposure was probably 1/20 - 1/40 [ish] and if I

    guessed the f stop, I'd say around 5.6 - 8 [ish]. It was developed

    in 1:9 D76 for 5:45 at 75 F. Thanks!!

    just me

    Hey, thanks for the comment. Yeah, I agree. I'm going to have to do something soon with my developing to get less grain. If anyone has any suggestions, Go ahead! :)
