Sadness on the Sidewalks, Satisfaction on the Sandby MeGoobieComment: I like the color of the shirt against the blue sky and water, and also like his placement in the shot. :) However, there are some things that would have made me vote this shot higher. First off, I would have shot this within an hour of sunrise or sunset (probably sunset) in order to cut out the harsh shadows and also add some spectacular colors to the sky and reflection off the water. Being that the subject would likely be back-lit in that case, I would use a soft flash to illuminate the subject of the photo (maybe even using a piece of white foamcore off to the side to bounce light as well). Lastly, I would make sure that the horizon is perfectly level. Many DPC'ers are notorious for voting down shots for that. However, great idea for a shot and hopefully one of my tips might be useful. :) Take them with a grain of sand though. ;) |

Lazy Riverby gtrnsaxComment: Absolutely gorgeous shot. The blue tones in this photo are awesome. :) I also like how the river leads you back into the shot and towards the mountains. Though I realize that this obviously must have been shot in the shadow of a mountain or hill, it would have scored even higher with me if it were taken closer to sunset and without the visible threshold between shadow and direct sunlight. Great photo though! :D |

You have been warned .......by boomeraklComment: Very nice composition. I like how the waves crashing against the rocks make the point of the sign very clear. :) This photo would have "popped" even more for me if it were taken slightly to the right (so that the sign wasn't obstructing the crashing waves at all) and if there were a bit more color to the sky (Hue/Saturation adjustment, maybe?). Overall great shot though. :) |
