Pasta Tradizionale

ok, not to pick this apart...but, personally I don't like the candles and your cheese (in the background) should be turned...your background is lighter than your foreground, making your shot a bit dark...

Lighting could use some work and maybe shoot from a different angle so we can see more of the pasta and less of the background.

Hi from the C Club

You asked for your shot to be critiqued!

I like the vibrancy that you have going on in this shot. Your lighting is pretty harsh in this shot as you can see from the bounce that is going on in there. I think that a closer crop all around to make a sqaure crop would have focused us more on the marco that it is . The center is a jumble of abstract and should have been concentrated there.

even though your shot is full of colours it is coming across as fairly flat, I played with it roughly and this is what i got now i used brightness and contrast, selective colours in black only, adn then repeat and flip. I am not saying you have to do this, but it gives you another idea of what could be done iwth your shot to make it more abstract and with a feeling of depth.

Score of 62%, I'm not too disappointed. I'm in the top half, which is good :D

Great idea for a shot! This is a total drama to a kid....the bike is like a car to us adults and a flat tire is just as tragic as when it happens to us on our vehicles. : ) Nicely done!

Since you asked for a critique, I have to first ask, "what did you envision as the subject?". It's a bit of a rhetorical question since it is obvisously the bee. Nevertheless, the flower does jump out at the viewer, taking the attention off the bee somewhat. How about a tighter crop (or capturing a closer image), which isoloates the bee while putting it in a "rule of thirds" layout? Maybe something like this (but larger).

Pretty good, but something about it does not come off as strong to me as this sort of shot should be. Not sure if it is the lighting, sharpness, or what.

like the colors in this looks like paint.

Drama should always have a large component of strong feelings, this conveys to me both disappointment and frustration fromthe perspective of a young child. Very good idea.
