Fire, Earth, Air - Primitive Copperware Fabrication
by JEM

Comment:
This is great ... reminds me (positively) of some photos taken by a freind of mine, who is my only real contact with the world of professional photography.

The flames seem to have gotten a little over-exposed/banded, but this is a minor flaw which in no way detracts from the impact of the photo. I've become a fan of the square crop, and it works well with your composition.

If we get an "Industrial" gallery category I hope you put it there.

Foggy Lakeside Morning

Comment:
You have enough deep color and (seeming) sharpness in the fore- and middle-ground plants that it really helps set-off the mood and feel of the foggy background. It seems overwhelmingly middle-tones but actually has a substantial range and contrast. Good job handling a tricky lighting situation. I have a bunch of recent pictures from the Puget Sound area which I wish would turn out as well as this one.

Congratulations -- be sure to post a picture of the printed calendar when it comes out.

... Which you've accentuated even more with your cropping/composition. The fortuitous "model" is perfect. Excellent job overall!

That bow looks like it's made for right-handers only, must have been a pain ...

Le Petit Chaperon Rouge

The title is pretty in French : )

This is pretty bright, and for me "hides" the subject a bit (I have some troubles with reds anyway). I think I'd have made the forest dark and gloomy ... but maybe this was early in her journey.

I think I'd have darkened the scene more to heighten the sinister effect.

Seems like it would make more sense (but not look as good) if the shoe faced the other way ... seems to me she lost it running away from the castle ... nice idea and execution regardless.

Robin would recognize your killer arrows, but probably wonder what the heck that other contraption might be ... I guess English yew longbows are a bit hard to come by these days.

You know a good armorer ... I never made a piece of mail more than a few inches square.
