Don - you've been shooting some very interesting subjects lately. I actually thought this was possibly Christian's (Xianart) while voting. I also had the thought that this looks like a gallery piece. So keep on shooting, my friend! Great work indeed.

Between Life and Stone

Greetings from the critique club :)

First of all I just want to say Huh? I am sorry, I just don´t get this shot, or rather, I don´t get how it ties in with the challenge and thus I probably would have voted it a 4 if I had voted in this challenge, knocking off a couple of points for my own lack of vision on how it ties in with the challenge. At least I am honest :)

I guess you were going for that life (the branches) and dead objects (the stones) don´t have a link cause they are alive and dead? Best I can come up with, sorry dude... :P

Aaaaanyway I do like the shot, only gripe I have with it is the tie in with the challenge. It´s well exposed, got great b/w tones and I like the clay like texture you were able to bring out in the stones, whole shot looks like the branch and stones were covered in mud wich I like about it. I probably would have voted this shot a 6 if the challenge had simply been black and white. Composition is not what I would call good but not bad either, a little bit shot too much straight on the subject or an ordinary vantage point, maybe another angle would have appealed more to me personally but like I said, it´s not bad.

I don´t know what else to say buddy so I´ll just say kind regards from Iceland, Lárus.

This is quite lovely! I didn't look through this challenge just saw this image in the "posthumous ribbons" thread and thought it was wonderful. Come to look and it is yours!

The appeal is strange and I can't put my finger on it. Just great!

This makes me sad. You took these poor slides you found in your trunk, against their will no doubt, and arranged them in this Victorian horror show? How dare you! Sorry I'm just upset that you didn't shoot what was inside your trunk, slides and all. :P

Good ingenuity here, If you have time I would like to know how you achieved this effect in further detail. You ever wonder if those news anchors are clones? Like Katie Chung and Earnie Anastos, they just never age!

Comment by pineapple:
The design is rather orthogonal and lacks kinetic imbalance. The filigree of the grass rather gets lost in the fuzz of the background felt or paper. Heavy duty watercolour paper as a background would have revealed more of the interest in the foreground objects.
