any impressions?

I'd like some feedback on this image. Thanks!

Lionel, the sky was a bit of an issue as there was a permanent haze throughout that whole part of the Canadian Rockies due to forest fires. I'm not certain a filter would have helped...

Please Critique

First my impression of the photograph. Very interesting pose. Unique to the point that I thought it was a digital alteration at first. The Grey tone is unatractive, I think turning it white would be more appealing.

 

Those comments aside, I think this photograph is noteworthy because it is controversial and says something. Art doesn't have to be beautiful in the traditional sense. Art makes us think (or should at any rate) and this photo does just that. It challenges us, and for that I applaud the photographer.

 

I've attached a quick alteration.. but I think it changes the meaning.

Hi Frank, I think you are getting the exposure right in all of these shots and that is good. However it seems that you like to have people's heads in the middle of the frame. Try to shift the frame down a bit so that their heads are in the upper third of the frame rather than the middle. The sky is often less interesting that the people in a shot. Of course this isn't always true.

Thanks! The camera was on full-auto mode. I can't take much credit for the exposure. It just worked. :)

How did you get such balance with so much brightness in the upper part of the frame? I like this a lot. I've taken a dozen similar shots of escalators going down into subway terminals but none of them have compared even remotely to this. :-(

The sun is in there intentionaly. Probably a silly idea...

great shot, good lighting, composition etc. They're like a pair of matching diamond earings made to look like salt and pepper shakers.

I'd like to get some impressions of this shot... I know there's a

focus problem.

The original shot was pretty poorly exposed. Both of the shots in this folder were pretty heavily tweaked in Photoshop.

I took this photo in a hurry while walking toward the exit of the subway station. I found the crazy green colour of the walls to be striking. I cropped this afterward. Please comment on what I should have done with this.

This was my first macro shot of some flowers in my office. I

manipulated the colour in photoshop.

This photo genuinely looks like an old photo. It makes me think of my grandmother as a child. Beautiful!

Not a great photo, slightly out of focus.
