White As A Goose

An interesting take on the theme - not many people this week (myself included) will have thought of using white as the colour - but it's perfectly valid!

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Swash...

I like your theme and the photo seems to relay that theme very well... The watches do seem to be suspended in mid air.

What puzzles me about this photo is that the watches don't seem to be very sharp and crisp like I would expect them to be from a shot with the 717 camera. Looking at this image, I would assume that there was a lot of light on the scene, but looking at your exposure information, I would assume this was incorrect based on a 1/2" exposure time.

Maybe the post processing to make the background white is what caused the watches to not be as sharp. I noticed that no one commented on the sharpness though so maybe it didn't play much of a role in the score..

Keep up the good work :)

Cats, babies, flowers and sunsets - the four hardest things to shoot because it's been done to death. I love LOVE the tongue sticking out and the intent look in the cat's eyes. I don't like the reflection - it's very distracting. Very nice looking cat and picture. Tough subject - 9.
