This is just stupid. Everyone knows that elephants trumpet, they don't French horn. I'm kidding! Masterfully done.

Serene. You can't argue with those colors, and the crop is flawless. Beautiful, beautiful. 7/6.

You're right, it actually is closer to an Irish flag. The colors and textures of stacks of soap are interesting. There was an earlier one here on PN, but the wrappers were covering most of the soap, and this is better.

Turn camera 90 degrees, zoom in on just the 3 center stacks to make an Italian flag :-)

At first glance they seem to be flying in formation, but something is

about to go wrong. I would like to hear your comments.

I measured the vertical lines carefully, and I don't think they diverge. It may be that the mind expects them to converge because of the perspective, and they don't very much, so they seem to diverge. The post between the 2 windows actually tilts slightly to the right, I think, not the photographer's fault. Nice photo.

I had a little chuckle. Wearing a mask for a portrait posing is like wearing a raincoat to take a shower. Unfortunately, the face is dimly lit, and the bright yellow scaffolding draws the eye away, yet cropping the scaffolding out is unthinkable because of his arm. Another problem is having the cap slightly chopped. Just things to think about next time.

This deserves no great ratings for originality, but what about the

aesthetics? Is a sea of color too boring?

I like it better cropped to a square by chopping off 1/4 from the right. Then rotate 180 degrees to see another face, this time on the darker side.

Try looking in the medicine cabinet, behind the dental floss. This may work better as a monochrome.

That is an admirable lens with VR, but my hat is off to your steady hand. I only hope youngsters don't see this and decide that they can forgo the tripod ;-)

I think this is my first macro critique request, but don't treat it that way, let me have it.

A fingertip-sized flower.

February 26, 2005

Do you remember which of your 1500 lenses was used for this? The bokeh is impressive, as is the DOF on the flower itself.

February 23, 2005

Good composition and lighting, interesting colors, but it would be improved by reducing DOF slightly, to reduce sharpness of the sofa while keeping duck and dog sharp. You're off to a good start.

It's a little scary. It needs a mouth. No, that would be more scary. If it's your breadboard, that would be TOO scary.

You have nicely captured this crustacean in a relaxed moment. The lighting from one side brings out its contemplative mood. The poor ratings are perhaps a condemnation of the model's harsh working conditions, as it appears to be rather dried out. If it needs to be out of the tank for long periods during a shoot, at least throw an occasional bucket of seawater on it. I find it refreshing to see a model with enough self-confidence that it does not need piercings and tattoos. 5/6.

February 13, 2005

Thanks for the background info. It really is a good composition. You did a nice job.

February 12, 2005

What a wacky abstract this would make if you cropped from the top of the hat to the bottom of the photo, just leaving the heaps. I'm having trouble getting much feeling our of this, not knowing what's going on. Harvesting gravel, planting rock salt? Don't tell me that's rice, sitting around wet like that can't be good, can it?

February 9, 2005

Very good shot. It actually looks like he is trying to turn the cap in the direction of the arrows! Is that a wine bottle?

February 5, 2005

The price of chameleons will go up now, everybody wanting to get one and take this kind of photo. Now that this end is done to perfection, you can concentrate on the other end.

Louise, the two guys on the crane are sandblasting the hull to remove rust and loose paint. The guy in motion is filling one of the three hoppers with abrasive material. If you ever get close to a sandblasting operation, you REALLY want to have a UV filter on your lens for protection. Let's hope nobody takes that "TUG" sign as a suggestion and yanks on the hose.

Incredibly sharp. But I prefer the one zoomed out to 155mm, which nearly shows the whole bird.

January 31, 2005

Nice car. I think this is focused just slightly short of the emblem. It could be better if the focus were exactly on the emblem or if the DOF were expanded by closing down about 1/2 stop.

Kathy is right about the tone; if you boost the red so that the white part of the can looks white, it will look more natural. This is very eye-catching. These birds look guilty as hell.
