21st centuryby ZigomarComment by Strikeslip: Wow, what a compelling shot! My favourite of the challenge so far, but IMO it doesn't meet the challenge. It'll be interesting to see how this shot scores. |

Get ready for mashed potatoes!by ZigomarComment by melismatica: Is this sepia tone? There is a yellowish cast that I don't like for this subject. This is a good choice for pattern (I tried a few shots with a colander myself but ultimately discarded them :D). I don't know if this shot says much to me about pattern. I think a tighter crop of just the mashing part would be more effective. |

Distanceby ZigomarComment by ubique: What I like about this is that the out-of-focus elements of the photograph have a definite purpose; although those two gulls are visually subordinated to the leading gull, he would be diminished without their essential supporting performances. And that's what I feel this challenge is really about ... using shallow depth of field to take some sort of artistic position about your subject. Plus it's a very unusual but interesting and challenging composition. 8. |

Distanceby ZigomarComment by _eug: The lighting is off. It would be better if it were taken from the left or right of the birds so that you aren't facing the sun's reflection. |

Distanceby ZigomarComment by macrothing: 2 - Good potential here. Criticism; a sharper perspective/angle would likely have made this much better in my opinion. Even at this angle, the shallowness of the 'DOF' does not seem very strong. The cropping so tight at the fore enhances this 'lacking' as well. Although the shoreline may have been 'uneven' like this, with this cropping/perspective/etc it doesn't look 'level' so either incorporating more context to see the 'flow' of the shoreline, or rotating this to create the illusion of a level shoreline, all likely would have made this even better in my opinion. Appears that there may also have been a reflection on the 'fore bird', so (depending what you had to work with), the inclusion of that (and indeed more foreground) may have also helped this. Also, needs to be 640 in this case width. |
