I can't believe some losers (3 to be exact) gave you a "1" on this picture; and 13 gave you a "2"! I personally gave an "8." People that graded this so poorly either need to get their monitors fixed or have the eyes examined. I really have to wonder about the motive of those that graded this picture so poorly.

great idea. I like the shadows on the ground and the way the light bleeds through the cracks in the barn. there is also a nice gradient of values from the upper left to the lower right.

wow...awesome.

Great mood

the blown out lighting makes this one for me...

I'm being frank - not to offend. The cropping, composition and distance is good. The light is harsh with too much fringing. I like the idea very much, but it seems that the process was executed poorly. This is just my opinion. 5

Probably old, but what is it? What makes it interesting? 4 sjgleah

Beautiful photo! I like this a lot. Only thing I could nit-pick about is that the bright light in the upper right corner does not fit to the rest of the photo. It's a touch too bright and also has a blue tint. If it would be the same like the bright light in the lower right corner (on the right wall of the barn) then it would be perfect. Unfortunately I don't have a suggestion how this could be achived.

interesting play with light here... the blown out glow through the back of this barn looks pretty interesting :) good work - jmsetzler

Good contrast and strong design--an interesting composition---andrewm

I like the contrast between the light and wood of this shot, even though the light may be a bit bright on the right. nice shot. karmat

I can almost smell the hay and old boards. Was this photo better focused before reduction?

Sure reminds me of some of the old barns. I think this would be a very difficult subject to capture, and you did about as well as I could hope for, but.....the back wall is too dark, the glare in places is painful and the whole thing seems just a little off focus. 6 Swash

wow... this looks really old. Could just be me, but a lot of the image looks out of focus and a bit too dark. It appears as though the sun is behind that wall, which would cause the bad backlighting-- it obscures an otherwise great photo! --7-- sohr

Beautiful! I love the contrast of bright light and shadows, which really emphasises the structure of the building and it's warped planks of wood.

When I saw your 'title', I thought well, let's see if it can hold it's own. Congradulations! Your photo speaks!
08/06/2002 09:09:00 PM
superb. the lighting and the composition... i love how the light is seeping through the cracks. 10!
08/06/2002 08:44:00 PM
Seems a little dark, but maybe that's just my monitor. I like the strong vertical lines.
08/06/2002 01:45:00 PM
I really liked this. The light seeping through is nice and the reds and browns work well.
08/05/2002 07:07:00 PM
Something old. Use your photographic technique to emphasize the age of your subject.
Composition - quite good
Technical Aspects - quite good, like the lighting
Meets Challenge - yes
Visual Impact / Originality - quite good / good

At first, I felt that this photo was too dark, but after studying it more, I kind of like the effect - it gives the light and cast shadow more prominence. I think that I would have like to have seen it cropped right at the top of the crossbeam just above the large upside down "L" shaped light on the right hand upper side to give it a little more balance. lhall

thats intersting..i like how the light looks like its bleeding thru.
08/05/2002 12:32:00 PM
Nice idea and a good setting but that blown-out light through the cracks is too much. Perhaps a low intensity fill-in flash inside this building would have brought out more interior detail as well as dropping the exposure reading on the camera - removing the over exposed lights.

The lighting in this is awesome! I wish it were a bit brighter all the same (talk about oxymorons). Great job! 8 LIsa

I really like the lighting on this picture.
08/05/2002 04:06:00 AM
I like the exposure.
