Babbling Brook (soft focus, not final)

Comment by Kylie:
Beautiful scene and persepctive. The colors are so rich and vibrant. I think for my tastes, a would have used a tad bit less of the softening, but still quite beautiful!

Ooo, so close -- this is almost a fabulous image. Your approach is sort of in between techniques: fast shutter to capure the droplets or slow shutter to make the falling water look as smooth as silk. Either way, definitely a tripod and timer/cable release is the way to go.

Nice try. But is so strange to me. The neon theme is not so clear.

There is not enough contrast between the water and the lower material it is spilling over. The image also appears blurred as though taken by hand at a slow shutter speed.

At The Ice Cream Stand

Comment by Kha0S:
Thanks for the comments, everyone...

It was actually a candid shot... I had gone out for ice cream with my girlfriend and my friend Scott. He had just received his order at the next window over when I thought that the textures of the wall, floor, and his feet made a very traditional feeling composition, and snapped off a shot.

I post-processed it a good bit to give it a definite "aged" feel, but without the sort of cliche sepia or a simple vingette. The image in my head when I composed it was definitely a muted, thick, brush-stroked feel ala Rockwell (good catch, irispetra).

Well, you almost achieved your goal of the brown ribbon. But I think this picture is much better than the score. Yes, it's strange looking and won't appeal to a lot of people but I personally this it's great. By the way, I love the His & Hers pic in your portfolio.

I didn't know that stance had a name! Good composition, good light/dark range.
