Really nice work. The gradations in the sky moving right (getting lighter) and the same moving left in the fields really has a profound impact. I gotta fix my RB67 :-)
-
Oops, not sure why I insisted on calling you "Richard" in the previous email - sorry! I also added the color version just for grins - click here to see it. Thanks again!

Thanks for the insightful comments, I really appreciate them. It does kind of look like a photo that was taken out of the developer tray too early :-) Although I captured exactly what I was intending (very unusual for me) it's tough for me to view in a completely objective context after the fact. And from that standpoint, I agree with your comments. Thanks again!

Yes, but does National Geographic ask you how you got a given photo, or for them do the photos speak for themselves? My guess is that, as long as the baiting wasn't obvious, they wouldn't care. -
Very nice - I think the shadow serves to bridge the two tonal areas quite nicely. For me there's kind of an interesting puzzle effect happening too - the shadow looks in some ways more like a silhouette... and I can't decide if the stones are the side of the building or the street.
-
Great shot - for me the contrast isn't just about the silhouette - it's the contrast between the drama on stage (smoke) and how casual his pose is. I hope that made sense - nice job.

Really like how the colors transition from one side to the other. Good eye!

I figured a place where I spend so much time deserved a "portrait."
Hope I did it justice :-) Thanks for comments!

I agree, a great shot Erin -definitely no mean feat to time something this well. What altitude were these guys flying at? Were there any Australian infantrymen around to simulate the shoot down of the Red Baron? :-)
-
Richard, thanks for you comments. Erin, I'll see if I can't find a "666" photo opportunity to see if your theory is correct :-).
-
Thanks for your kind comments. I don't take the 1/1 stuff too seriously - I expect we'll have to get used to more of that now that ratings are not associated with member names :-)

Wow, very nice depth of field management as well as background/forground color contrast. Hard to make subject matter like this come off as original, but I think you've done it! -
Reflection of a chapel in a parking ramp. Thanks in advance for
comments!

Very nice - to a certain extent, the lines are similar to the photo of mine you were nice enough to comment on (here.) How the trees are juxtaposed with those arches is really striking. -
Nice job, I love the compact cropping in conjunction with the heavy black frame. Might be my monitor, but it looks like the forground foilage is a little out of focus. To get it in focus would probably pose a host of other technical problems, but it might be worth the effort if you like the idea.

Good job - can't help but think of this as a face, but maybe that's just me. The tonal range is handled such that the highlights in the wood have a luminescence about them that is really nice. -
A photo from way back in my college days. Please excuse the tiny
size - I was unable to locate my original scan and negative, but
hopefully there's enough there for you to get the idea.
Thanks in advance for any comments!

Very nice - almost a woodcut quality. M6 shots without people are few and far between these days :-)
-
Nice job - kind of a distant, but much more effective cousin to what I was trying to do here. Great how it keeps your eyes bouncing all over the image.

Tough to make balloon photos unique, but they sure are fun to shoot :-
). Any comments appreciated - thanks.

I think the tilt effect is super. Your work makes me wish I had the resources (but more importantly the patience) to do view camera work. Great job! -
Just a wonderful photo. The topography of the paint/rust really provides for almost unlimited exploration on the part of the viewer - yet the whole thing comes off as organized as well. Ironically, I just did a rust shot the other day that obviously isn't in the same league as this one. I found myself having to introduce external elements to make it interesting, but you managed to take the elements you were given and make them work. Great job!

Felt compelled to take my tripod's portrait, even though it was
driving me nuts that day. Thanks in advance for comments.
