Portrait of an Old Violin
by paganini

Comment:
wow, as an ex-violin player, i love this--i would have given a copy to my grandfather (he used to play in a symphony.) the lighting and contrast is just perfect. the only thing i might have done differently is pull out just a bit to get a hint more of the strings on the right. anyway, my favorite shot so far! 9--amitchell

Violin

Comment:
i like the framing and the clarity/color of this photo--it really shows the age of this beautiful old violin. the only nit-pic i have are the bright lighing on the neck (perhaps a diffuser or different placement of the light?) otherwise, very nice job! 8--amitchell

My Friends

ok, i'm having a tough time with this one. first--i love the picture--very nicely set up and also nice subject/composition. I'm just trying to figure out if it has the soft overexposed look on purpose? I can only assume so, to make it look older? it looks like you jacked the output levels way up to give it that oldtimey portrait look?I took the liberty of putting this in photoshop and messing with the levels--darkening the cameras and taking that whitish contrast off really makes the camera and shadows stand out really nicely. but like i said, that is just me--i still like what you have here! BTW, i've never left such a long comment so i'll stop! email me if i'm way off base because now i'm curious and would like to know your intent here! :-)

best of the bunch! great composition, lighting and contrast--and great mood. Looks like she is depressed --why not about money?!! I'd hang this on my wall. 10--amitchell

Back to Basics

awesome. like the framing and the bland color scheme seems to add to the depressive atmosphere of the picture. Can't decide if I'd crop the column on the right out or not...anyway you get a nine from me! 9--amitchell
