Coin In A Bubble

Comment by Gene L.:
An interesting idea. Very good exposure and focus. However, I do think that the background takes away from the impact. It might look better on a solid contrasting color.

Love how you caught that little star of light and rainbow there.

Neat idea, but I feel it would have been better executed if the background would have been less busy. This would have shown the structure of the bubble more and not have been so distracting.

Nice idea. I think it would score better with a different background and with the coin facing straight up and down.

I know this area well. I would have raised the Seattle horizon line quite a bit more and included more of down town Renton. Maybe a little more contrast as well.

The colors are really muted. Was it a hazy day? In my limited knowledge, there are filters that help correct for that for some cameras (of course I can't find them for mine). Playing with the saturation levels may help too.

To me the photo is a bit too busy. There are just too many small things to look at, which the title ("... etc.") is also an indicator. The misty (?) weather is ok, because it creates a nice distance of the city in the background. But I don't see much "Life" (or an intended abscence of it as in other photos) or anything interesting going on.

Nice view of Renton and Lake Washington. I do think however the photo would have benifited by one stop less exposure. It would have compensated for the haze and added a little color density. It does give the feeling of the area though. I can almost feel the traffic on I405:)

this is a nice city life shot but it looks a little hot on the exposure... the colors are washed out... I think a shot like this done early in the morning would be nice :) = 6 - jmsetzler

Wow, this shows so much - many different aspects of a city. Well done!
