Yeah, I'm kind of in the "give up" mood right about now. I posted a bunch of my other considerations on my profile page if anyone is bored. None of them would have scored well either.

Deb, I really like the one of the city forest scape. It looks as if the city is invading the healthy forest like a tumor. Maybe process the city darker, more foreboding to emphasize the point?

I need help in ideas on how to save a photo. I have a great shot of mom with child, but do to light I had to shoot it with too wide a aperture, so mom is oof , and my grandchild is sharp.

My FS is at 5.6 & my Halloween is at 4.8. I kind of thought it would be the other way around.

I really did try this month. Had over a dozen I'd narrowed it down to. I went with the one I thought would score the highest. What does this say about the rest of my choices, I wonder? Here's what the "best I can offer" is doing...

5.3

Woo hoo!


Same territory as me, actually :-)

For the FS his month I entered a photo that I love, which holds dear memories for me. I am not surprised at all that its at 5.000, in fact I expect it to move lower.

Duplicate post, sorry.

Here's a more arty edit...
11/01/2009 10:41:02 AM · #942
Somehow B&W didn't enter my mind Thank You Kelli.
New edit.
11/01/2009 10:41:28 AM · #943
Hi Alan - I agree with what Kelli said - you probably need to go artsy since both subjects are not in focus. Also, I think the white balance is off so I decided to go with black and white - although I'd want a better contrast that what I used here.

Topaz Detail and Topaz Denoise really helped me pull out some details. Congrats and enjoy!
