A Study In Shadows
by teachme53

Good image for stock. Reminds me of a librarian or a lady contemplating a book (I guess the glasses part way down the nose do this!) but I'm sure it could be used to illustrate many things. Focus is good, exposure seems on the nose. Nice job!

Terrific angle for this shot. The colors are vibrant and you've composed it (or cropped it) very nicely.

Good exposure and well composed picture. I like the shadows although they almost overpower the bulb. For use as a stock image, I would turn the bulb so that the writing is not visible. The writing might limit the general appeal to some photo buyers. I can think of several ways to set this up but I'd like to know how you did it. Very good.

Nice shot with vibrant colors. The colors in the surrounding area are more muted and this offers a gentle contrast. I seem to see a bit of grain in the dark areas as if the exposure wasn't exactly on the money. If I were a photo buyer, I'm not quite sure what this would illustrate unless it depicts the art of a particular culture (past or present). As a stock photographer, I don't think this would be a top seller in my collection but it's still a very nice picture.

This looks almost like an abstract of a tall building (your title gives it away). The colors are attractive and the focus seems quite sharp. Nice job. I don't know how often you would sell this shot from your stock portfolio but I like it nonetheless.

Flags are so common that they really need to be outstanding to attract a photo buyer. While it's a good photo, there isn't anything which really grabs my attention and makes me think that this is a "MUST HAVE" photo. Mostly in focus and the exposure is good.

Paper Clip Art

Comment:
As a photo buyer, I wouldn't want to see the text you've added. I know where I want to put text; you don't have to tell me. The border doesn't add anything and if I were laying out a magazine or annual report or textbook, I'd probably crop those out anyway. You've got a good concept here for a stock photo and the paper clips are quite sharp and well lit.

Pipe Dreams

The teeth marks on the stem of this pipe detract from it. I would try reversing the focus so the bowl is in clear focus and the stem is out of focus. Might not work, but worth a try. Colors are nice and the white background is handled well.

A very sharp photo and this would be very good in some magazines. I can't tell what the background is --- that's probably good --- but I like the way the yellow dots lead your eye into the subject of the photo.

Impecable focus! I would have liked a catchlight in the eye on the right as there is in the eye on the left.
