Patterns patterns everywhere
by Revolt

Nice image, good use of depth of field to bring a large portion of the image into focus and emphasizing the depth of the pattern itself.

The angle of this shot throws me a bit, and the contrast with the sky isn't enough for me, though I like the brighter sky to the right-hand of the image, this is mostly lost given the grey that makes up the background sky to the rest of the image. Increased contrast would have improved this, I think, along with a bit of sharpening to heighten the contrast even more.

Mandatory Paper Shot

Comment:
It may be mandatory, but it's a nice shot, well done, with good use of lighting and shading. I like the white sheet covering the whole lower right corner, it adds impact to the shot.

Neat image with a nice title, though keeping the background building in focus may have emphasized the pattern a bit more.

Tunneling

Nice image, good use of depth of field, and nice contrast between the lighter, out-of-focus foreground and the darker, inner, sharply focused tube. I think I might have cropped it so that the end of the tube itself was a bit more to the left or the right (probably left, as that's the way it's bending). But that's just what I would have done!

I like this shot, the juxtaposition of the pattern against the rest of the image (which of course has other patterns in it, too, such as the walkway), but the lack of a clear focus on any one (or greater) spot on the pattern bothers me just a bit.

Taxies

Comment:
Nice image, though the overexposed taxi lights don't work for me and detract from the impact of the image as a whole. A bit brighter, with perhaps a bit more contrast would have worked for me, though I like the choice of black and white, and also the long horizontal proportions of the photo.

Antithesis of Random
by Alexgio

Comment:
The focus here is troubling for me; the entire thing seems out of focus, and while it's a neat idea for a pattern, the bit of floor showing in the upper right corner seems out of place and the background green doesn't work for me. Also, the subject matter isn't well placed in the image field on the whole, I think.

Zebra pattern

Comment:
Nice image, good lighting highlighting the skin tones, and I like the choice to go in black and white (which I think most likely emphasized the pattern of the clothing more than color would have). Good image!

Interesting image, and definitely focused on the pattern, but being "made of light" it all seems a bit overwhelming to me (maybe that was the point?).
