Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Shoes (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Nikon D100
Location: off the ledge
Date: Aug 26, 2005
Galleries: Abstract, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Aug 26, 2005

setup: camera on first floor, looking straight up to curved overlook on second floor. dangled legs over the edge. that's my complicated setup.
light: natural light
editing: the blown-out high key effect was due to curves and contrast adjustments to make the textured area of ceiling disappear within the restrictions of basic editing.

thanks for the great comments :)

A cool artistic graphical effect done with good humor. 7

This is alittle to abstract for me, also it looks like it was overly processed.

Nice llight and airy feel. Could be an advertisement. Best of Luck

Great use of space. I like the high key feel.Maybe just a little to blown out in the top lefthand corner.

This has a whimsical sense to it which I like. The diagonal line is interesting to the eye. I even like the pink coloration. With the shoes being black against the negative space, they have great impace. This is definitely a fun shot!

Elegant weight of line and beautiful composition. A clever idea well executed.

Thank you for something different. This is clever and leaves me wondering how.

nice editing, but model's legs are too "blown out", too reflective imo

Very cool effect, very nice photo. I'd have cropped closer to the shoes on the bottom, which still would have left lots of whitespace at top and between the legs. Very minor nit, as I said, great photo!

Nice composition. I really like high key shots.

Very, very interesting. Looks like a girl sitting on a bench, lots of overexposure & then a tilt for the finish! Great job. Very creative. 9.

This is a hugely important work worthy of any cosmetic, product or fashion ad - 9

Neat angle. I love the position of her legs in correspondance with the title. How you got her to dangle is beyond me, but I like it nonetheless.

I stumbled on the winning photo. I´m sure of it! 10 from me and congrats!

Totally cute and wildly fun! This is a textbook lesson in simple, creative composition. One of those images that one can easily fall in love with ... kind of like a shot of Audrey Hepburn. The swoosh line of the table is great, but the twisted knee makes it all work. One of my ribbon picks for this challenge. 9 and a fav.

this is a really fun pic makes me :) i like the long exp and the suspended legs.

It's marvelous!! What is not to love? The composition and contrast and (of course) the shoes. A "10" from me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
09/01/2005 02:15:11 AM
Love love love this picture! I hope you ribbon! The composition with its slanted line works very well. The black/pink on white is also great! Nice contrast and original idea. The only minor detail might be that the photo seems just a bit overprocessed at the edges...
But really, very well done! Good luck. A new favorite

I'm new to dpchallenge and not an expert on Photoshop, but this doesn't look like all you did was basic editing. Anyhow, very mod and minimalist. Interesting nonetheless.

Cool! Can't wait to see how this was done!

I feel like this is reallly cool, but too washed out for me. I gave it a 7

talk about broken legs!. nice coloring...

Fabulous! The thumbnail grabbed me and the photo delivers in spades. It's got humor, simpicity, very strong composition, interesting use of duotone. 10 (and note that most challenges I don't give more than one 10)
