too dark really, though I think I understand why..

On my monitor this is a little dark. I like the subject matter, but the texture isn't featured really.
07/27/2002 10:22:00 PM
too gray; texture is lost

The file size of this photo is only 27K! The rules allow for up to 150K. You have lost a lot of detail and sharpness due to the JPEG compression artifacts. In my opinion, I don't think texture is a primary element of this photograph. I hope my comments have provided some useful information, and keep trying! *3* -balynch

I hope your "model" agreed to this, 'cause s/he doesn't look too happy! I think it needs more light to really show the textures well. karmat

too dark

I wish the quilt were better-lit.

Your image lots of its intrigue with the combination of black & white and such a dark image. I'm a sucker for bright, vivid pictures... I can't help but imagine this one with very bright sheets and light streaking across part of the image, though I'm probably missing the point of the shot. A boy can dream...

This could be an interesting picture, but it's way too dark.
07/24/2002 08:45:00 PM
This is far too dark to really show texture.
07/24/2002 05:01:00 PM
I don't get it
07/24/2002 01:10:00 PM
This picture could be improved if it was lighter. Because of the darkness, it is hard to focus on. (4) AquaGoddess12880

I love the feeling of a warm bed on a cold winter morning also, but for me to find texture in this image is a strech.

the eye creeps me out. The overall photo doesn't have sufficient contrast for me to feel a desire to return to the warm bed "advertised" in the title or shown in the photograph.
07/24/2002 03:02:00 AM
This is way too dark. There is so much texture potential in this, Bright color might have helped to bring it out.

Soo dark and gloomy, especially in B&W, seems awkward with the title. When I think of warm, I think of colors like red and yellow. I started by grading this shot as a 5, the I don't understand vote for me. I don't see much sense of texture. If you would be so kind as to send me a note after the challenge week, I would like to understand this photo better. (see my profile for e-mail info) 3 Swash

Too dark and grey. Boost the levels and contrast- better lighting when shooting to begin with would help in this as well.
07/23/2002 04:15:00 AM
very underexposed? I can't see anything..
07/22/2002 08:04:00 PM
I really like the composition, the subject, and the concept. I very much like the creativity in the shot. However, I had to search around to find the subject because of the lack of contrast.
07/22/2002 04:16:00 PM
i see texture, bu there is texture in everything... I would have liked to see a stronger interpretation... = 4 - jmsetzler

i would almost consider this one patterns more than texture, but i can see your pow and i can go with it. however, the shot is very much gray on gray, some more contrast would've helped this a lot, i think. -- gr8photos (2)

nice composition but too dark
07/22/2002 01:04:00 PM
looks too dark to me and the black and white doesn't exactly make this look warm. I also miss the texture in this. 3 beegee
07/22/2002 10:10:00 AM
texture?
07/22/2002 08:46:00 AM
Very dark and hard to make out anything other than what is right in the foreground.
07/22/2002 06:21:00 AM
Far too dark and indistinct
