Somebody Didn't Read The Sign

A nice concept, but the photograph is lacking a touch technically, IMO. It's a little over-exposed, with a flat feel (not enough contrast). White balance seems to be off, as the geese/ducks are bluish tinged, and the sign seems to have a great deal of artifacting in the red. A couple of extra shots at a few more stops down, or with exposure compensation dialed down a bit, might have given you something more to work with, and a little more post-editing work would have also done wonders. Still, I like the concept, and the composition is nice. The fence is unfortunate, but out of your hands. Keep up the good work, and keep shooting.

what flavor?

I like the concept, to a point, but the photograph itself has a few problems. It's dark, out of focus on the fish candies, and very flat and plain. Not really my brand of humor either. Keep trying.

Can you hear me now? Good!

Definitely different, and meets the challenge on the most basic of levels. The hue shifting, however, is just not to my taste. Pretty dynamic piece of graphic art in my opinion, but not something I generally score high.

A nice studio attempt. I think the crop is a little tight at the top and bottom, and you've got some vignetting in the two right corners. The focus falls off in wierd places as well, and the lighting seems to be a bit flat. You've got a good angle on the subject though, and for the most part the clarity is good. Keep working on these types of shots.. I know *I* am :)

lighting is a little too harsh here, it looks as if you might have metered on a darker area of the photo (or chose a couple of stops too high). The child's expression and the composition are really good here, but with proper lighting, this could really have "shone". (pardon the pun), and have been an 8 or a 9.

Composition is good on this shot, but I find it rather lacking in lighting. The sky is very noisy, and the overall appearance is just a little flat. You've really nailed the symmetry.

Definitely one of the better "can-on-a-string" photographs in the challenge. The duotone is just a little too strong for me, but I love the lighting. Great contrast between the two forms of communication devices here. Overall, a strong image, amusing, and well shot. Good work.

Congratulations on the new top 10 placing! I really adore this shot. it's one of the better macros I've seen, and it's just so classic! The texture is unbelievably realistic.. makes me want to stroke it.

Hot damn.. I really like this shot. Maybe not as glittery as your 6th place parts entry, but there's something about it that just calls to me.

I've been waiting for more stuff to show up in your portfolio.. I've been anxious to see you put the 7590 to the test!
