That's a fair comment and I agree.
Here's how this came about. I feel like I've been doing well on DPC from a creative stand point but was not doing so well with the technical. So I've been working on lighting and post-processing and really applying myself to learn to improve in these areas. As part of that exercise I happened to be trying to recreate this photo when the Odd/Even challenge was announced. My initial thought was a few ideas for the Even challenge and then it occurred to me that what I was shooting would fit the Odd. I was already setup to take the photo and liked the results. I did feel a little bad about making an exact copy and thought about not even including the link to the original but felt that was even worse. I've seen a lot of photos here where people copy others work so I decided it was OK.
So I guess it's a hollow victory. I will be more original in the future. |
Thank you for not taking offense to my comment. It's not a hollow victory by any means. There are many who have tried shots like this and failed so it is an accomplishment you should be proud of. |

Out In The Fieldsby macrothingComment: Strip way the mechanical skill, the subject's wowness and this would still have appeal. Not sure if you can say that about many of the others. Nicely done. Message edited by author 2008-04-28 03:02:52. |
