Hello Kosmikkreeper;
---------------------------------------------
Fits The Challenge-Sure it's a cheese grater and that's dairy.

Composition-Abstract/Macro/Perspective

Background-N/A

Digital Processing-Good. Some lack of DOF. Shallow DOF can be very appealing but this shot might of done better had the DOF been increased. I can't see the EXIF information to know what settings were used.

My Opinion-Creative shot. Good use of light. I'm amazed that two people thought of this subject for the challenge. I was shocked that this didn't do better. I guess too many wanted to see the cheese or more DOF. I see their point, but think it stands up well as it is.

Fits The Challenge-Yes,

Composition-Very nice, the colorful sign set to the left is a good touch against the blue sky.

Background-Lovely blue as noted.

Digital Processing-Good DOF. Very nice vivid colors, crisp, sharp photo. I do notice a little blur....This is from being hand held, wind, or maybe from over sharpening....I don't know and it's very minor.

My Opinion-Super colorful shot with good composition. Nicely done.
Again welcome to the DPC group. Good first shot, really nice. Keep um' coming!!

Falling Rocks - Floating Sign

Hi DigitalGravy
_________________
Fits The Challenge-No, doubt about it!!

Composition-Very nice, the sign appears to be floating. It's centered and framed with good taste.

Background-N/A

Digital Processing-Must be done well, because I don't see a lot of it. I'm almost always impressed with the Sony DSC-F717.


My Opinion-Angeles National Forrest over the 'grapevine'. That's traffic. It's also very pretty if you like high desert and I do. I've never done it at night. This isn't a very exciting sign, and it's not humors but what this is, is a good photograph. It's clean, crisp and clear with good color, focus and composition while meeting the challenge.
SO not too much to add here really. I did enjoy looking at your photo.

paynekj<-hello!
---------------------------
Fits The Challenge-Sure does.
Composition-Busy
Background-Beautiful blue sky/beach/ocean.
Digital Processing-I'd of like to see the bottom cropped off shorter. That or just reversed and the bottom lightened up with levels and less sky.
My Opinion-Being dark and busy are the weak areas. Means little to me that my high school French wasn't my best subject. I don't need to know the meaning, I'm smart enough to see one is to the airport and at least one other is to the port. Overall a pleasing shot, just two small areas that could of been changed.
Thanks for the chance to review your photo in Critique Club.

Head Games

Hello Jitams!
______________
Fits The Challenge-Yes.

Composition-Nicely arranged.

Background-Good.

Digital Processing-_Dark_. It's difficult to distinguish between the head, the camera and the background. Levels adjustment would of helped some, hair bleach or a light colored baseball cap. I saved this shot and lightened it just a bit...hey I can see you hair now. :) Technically this is a very solid shot.

My Opinion-Hope I'm not sounding overly critical.
I haven't even told you that I liked the idea and thought it was very clever and I voted a 7. My grandson's [ages 12&13] thought this was a riot and got a big hoot out of it. Three cheers for your good eye, and creative mind. Thanks for allowing me to review your 'Head Games'.

Hi there 'Mustbelost'
__________________________________
Fits The Challenge-Yes, yes, 100% + the good humor just adds to the shot.

Composition-Very nicely done. I do think a giant step to the right would of added to the photo. The DOF is nice here as is the focus.

Background-Very good, good dof.

Digital Processing-Technically well done. I do think the levels could of been adjusted and the colors. The trees are just a little flat and dark.

My Opinion-Cute sign..would of been better if the road was flooded...? I don't know it gets the point across, it fits the challenge and it gives a giggle. I voted it high during the challenge I really thought it might win.
I like this shot and really have enjoyed this review. Thanks.

Caught Snacking

Anachronite hello.
____________
Fits The Challenge-O'yeah and with great humor! 'Caught Snacking'
Composition-Is very nice however, I may have moved the 'mouse' lower in the frame and exchanged the blue one for a solid colored mouse.

Background-Fitting it's full of cheese.

Digital Processing-Maybe a bit too sharp on some of the edges. Camera? Shapening?

My Opinion-I like everything about this idea. It's original, creative, colorful, and fun. I don't like the lighting. It's the weakest part of the whole shot and I think many of the commentaries agree. Thanks for letting me review your shot I really enjoyed this one.

Hello Kosmikkreeper
----------------------
Fits The Challenge-100%
Composition-I personally like the funky angle. It's so different that it just feels right, looks right. Also we don't need to read the text.
Background-You can't look at this without noticing the beautiful sky, and the deep, rich color of blue.
Digital Processing-This shot is sooo crisp, clean, and sharp. I'm impressed with the Nikon Coolpix 4500. Nikons=>sweet lens.
My Opinion-Not anything to add here. The shot is in focus, clean and sharp. It meets the challenge. It's interesting with bit of negative space to keep ya lookin'.
Good work.
Thanks for the opportunity to review your shot.
