Gretelby posthumousComment by klkitchens: Not sure how this connects to the story except that it has a little girl. You could have named it "Jill" or "Old Woman in the Shoe's Child" |

chaotic dynamicalby posthumousComment by FrankRobinson: Posthumous - we meet again! Two critiques in one sitting?!
Well, it's a dog photo that I like, which is nice. Actually it's almost a collage isn't it - a collection of images, textures and reflections. Organised chaos, or disorganised.
Technically, there is never much to say. I am convinced that this is exactly what you wanted, even to the amount of noise - which just gives us a little more texture to enjoy.
Artistically, you could always hammer this for it's lack of fractals. Maybe they are in there. There is certainly a whole cosmos with a series of elements in there. I reckon it would keep a whole class of arts students busy for a semester trying to dissect it and that has to be a good thing. There is chaos, and in Darcy's eyes perhaps some nervousness. Genius.
I'm glad I came to this last, after seeing your other dog. This definitely engages me more - perhaps I am predictable?!
Happy hunting,
Frank. |

scan that doggie in the windowby posthumousComment by FrankRobinson: Hi Posthmous, we meet again in the Critique Zone!
Hmmm. Normally I am a fan, but this one doesn't grab me. I like the dog although I am a little mystified by the barcode through the nose. I am just not sure what the blur adds to this, it doesn't seem to me to need a sense of movement or dynamism. The flat, desert beige colours tell me that everything there should be still, beaten down by the heat. Perhaps I am wrong and it is heat haze not motion blur?
I think what really leaves me cold is just the overall balance of the composition. The tilted angle, the extra space at the top. I guess I just don't get it! Having seen plenty of your work, I'm sure you had something in mind here but this time, I'm not sure what it is.
I'm going to head back to predictability and over-sharpening now!
Happy hunting,
Frank. |
