Soaring II
by Enlightened

Comment:
There are so many images titles "Soaring" I couldn't begin to come up with what this shot is a re-take of, so I can't offer any good comments regarding your update. It does show good movement which adds to the dynamic of the photo. Good use of rule of thirds too. I think it would have been better to get the bird flying solo without another in the sky. But other than that, the lighting is real good with the underside of the bird being lit real well even though it is in shadow.

-Selective Desaturation Challenge-

Comment:
I think this is a reshoot of an entry by sfalice. I must say you have really improved the image tremendously. The full color and the saturation really pops. It looks like something out of a '50's technicolor movie or something! I also think you may have tried some perspective correction because the columns in your last entry look somewhat curved and these look nice and straight... Great Job.

One of the few critiques I could give is about the dark water. Other than that... It Pops!!

Nothing really improved on this shot. The added blackness really doesn't help. I think you should have gone and re-shot your bees in the back yard again!

Definite improvement over your first photo. The lighting is much better. I noticed how you got some shadow on the front of your forearm, like in the poster which suggests you used good side lighting from camera right. The sharpness is uber on this take! I like your take on this subject and I can't offer any improvements. I can offer alternatives because there are always a thousand ways you can do one thing. Some alternatives to try in your processing might be to add some noise or a bit of soft focus to the image. When I look at the poster images, the use of the printing technique seemed to give some speckling to the poster, which is why I suggested noise. Also in the poster, Rosie still gave off that feminine mystique so I think maybe some soft focus might aid in that in your shot. Also I thought it might make it more true to the era rather than the HD shot you have here. Just suggestions though, not real critiques.

Awesome foreground but the sky is a major problem on this shot. I don't know what you did with it... The light of the sky nd the light of the ground don't match. I suppose you tried to blend using expert editing. Other than that, the line of horses, the dust, that was done very well.

Pro-tour JANUARY

I think you tried to make this staged shot believable with your placement of the ball, but why not use it as an advertising piece and get that logo nice and straight?? Other than that, a color shot would have worked a little better but I can see why you went B&W.

In July the sun is hot. Is it shining? No it's not.

Definite camera shake here. Good colors though.

I don't know about where you golf, but a tee box is very neatly trimmed grass. You have the ball up on a tee which is unrealistic for a shot from the rough.
