That's a hell of a shot, Jeb. It had never crossed my radar before this :-(

Weird... Last boat I owned was named "Arabesque" and, of course, I'm "Bear" albeit my running days are long over :-)

Fashion Photographer!

Dr. Eden, if you think that's FASHION you're proving you have no sense of it :-) I love John Daly. I was so bummed when he WD from the USGA Senior Open up in Salem. I went up there for a day and had intended to follow him. Still had a good time, though :-)

Red Ones Go Faster

Comment:
I see a rectangle full of angular sections of a red hypercar. But it doesn't work for me, and I'm a car nut. The composition, the DOF, the demanding presence of the black-on-black wheel and tire, they just don't work in harmony. I give it a 5.

That's EXUBERANT! It's RED! It sings to me well beyond any questions of its technical or photographic "merit". I love the adult in the chair foreground left. It's altogether an image that tells a story and I'm glad you shared it with us. A 9 from me.

red six

It's red! There's even a sort of homely, gritty integrity to the image, But in the end it feels haphazard to me, not thought-out at all. The focus is strangely placed, the noise is disturbing, the lighting is flat, and I just can't really get behind the image :-( It's a 4 from me.

Praising Red

Beautiful red, reasonably dynamic composition, nice dewdrops on the rose. The upper areas aren't performing real well for you; you could imagine a more positive leaf-and-light experience up there. A 6 from me.

Red Peppers

Whoa! Here I am scrolling along voting bright, bright, BRIGHT red pictures, then WHOMP! It's the Cave where Red was born! In a lot of ways I like this a lot, but for me it's not as well-realized as it could have been. A little careful work in post in the darkest part of the peppers to bring them up half a zone or so would have provided a boost to the 3-dimensionality of the image. The empty space to the right isn't helping you at all, all the more so because the pepper/BG division is so danged vertical. It's such and abrupt stoppage. I'd love to see one more pepper low and in the back on the right, fading into the cave :-) Also it would be great if you could change the WB on the bottom-most reflection so it was a lot less blue... A 7 from me.

Lotta red, lotta excitement, but in the end the image isn't reaching me at any other level. I'll give it a 6 for Joie de vive.
