    Suhail: photography is NOT about adding very cheesy, low quality graphics to replace a poor background. Go to the Gallery here at photo.net and browse the best photography. It is, for the greatest part, made solely of photography, not graphics.

    Superb. The cropping that others have mentioned is nonsense. Why do objects need to be complete in the image when they are completed in our minds?

     

    The color of the water bothers me a bit, but the image as a whole is just .... Superb.

     

    Cheers, Alan.

  1. Great photograph. The contrast evokes a place that is harshly lit and even gives us a sense of the noise in the place. It looks like a hot and sweaty job. The subject looks like he has many hours to go before his shift ends, but he is already tired...

     

    I would have preferred that the worker not be posing, but doing his job, that would be a great environmental portrait.

  2. There is a dictate in photography that powerlines should be avoided in a photo. In this photo, the powerline blongs, as does its supporting pole. It follows the fenceline and is in fact a neccesary element in the converging lines of the image.

    Hi Lyle thanks for your comments. The shot as shown is as taken. Another shot of the same scene (at 300mm) is nice also, but this one brings out "boys fishin'" better than the other one. This was a great subject (I don't know these boys at all) and I should have shot a few more frames at different angles...

    Colors are vibrant, getting attention.

    A less centred composition may have helped improve it.

    Resolution (possibly focus too) ruins it. If there is a sharper version, please post it, and maybe crop the weak blue/grey on the left.

    I'm not sure how to categorize this photo. It has a rough antique finish, no cropping, as if the artiste is determined to say that the whole speaks for itself.

     

    Three daisies in sepia. Okay, it must be art. I'm not enthralled, and please don't get upset at my opinion, but there were certainly much better POW candidates.

    Very eye catching. Horizon too centered? Shaddow on left should have been avoided (or back up and include the tree that made the shaddow).

    If you have a chance to do something like this again, try it with the road preceisely centred. Try a portrait orientation with 2/3 sky (or 2/3 ground to horizon).

    Superb soft image. I would have cropped the top a hair more, even with the top of the 'fuzz' on the water. The detail of the loose feathers is great. The top of the cranes back might be considered blown out by some, I find it is 'just right'. The head of the crane is perhaps not in focus enough. Top/bottom symetry is very nice.

     

    Cheers,
