Challenge:Free Study (Classic Editing) Camera:Sony DSC-F707 Location: My Home Date: Jul 13, 2002 Aperture: F 8 ISO: 200 Shutter: 1/1s Date Uploaded: Jul 14, 2002
nice shot but it has a major flaw: it's too crowded. try to pick one (or at least only a few) of the objects and photograph it with a simpler background. that's much more effective. the photo also lacks contrast and sharpness and has an distracting empty area on the right side.
I like the idea of this, but there was so much stuff, so close together that it just felt overwhelming and cluttered. I couldn't really pick out much of anything besides the wolf's head.
I think I'd crop tighter, or maybe rearrange the objects so more detail shows, or maybe not worry about the wolf. Maybe stronger foreground lighting would help.
The lighting and focus on this picture is great. the viewer can really make out hte detials on each object. However, it is just a little too busy. My suggestion would be to take one or two items and photograph them so that the viewer can really absorb it. Also, it has kinda an odd crop. Crowded on the left, open on the right; feels a little off-balance to me.
this image is entirely too busy for my liking. there are so many items that could be really interesting, but none really pop out as the main subject to me. -- gr8photos (3)
The 'busy' nature of this particular photo makes it really difficult to determine what the subject is... I suppose the 'theme' is the subject here.. = 5 - jmsetzler
It's a bit jumbled, overly busy to start with. The central theme of indian dreams is nice, but the mix of old and new, wide spread indian cultures, plains/sw/7 nations/northern too diverse. (I am an Anthropologist with a small amount of indian blood/heritage) Try this again with fewer objects, maybe from a single geographical area, it will be more effective. 5 Swash
Too cluttered. I think the indian dreams theme could have been done well though...maybe if you had included only 1-3 objects...or just the dreamcatcher in a window. Lisa
Just too much going on here- all different heights. Your composition needs help. The wolf/dog and tree of the 'throw' is very nice and did make a good background. I'm Cherokee and love everything your showing here. I rate this a six for over all creative idea. Kee
I think there is just a bit too much going on in this shot, so it's hard to focus on any one thing. Use either less items, or figure out a way to make them stand out from eachother. Right now it looks like a bit of a jumble.
