Challenge: PEAS! (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Sony DSC-F717
Location: studio
Date: Aug 10, 2006
Aperture: f2
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/30
Galleries: Humorous
Date Uploaded: Aug 10, 2006

 Photo of a blue sheet of paper with light gradient. Monochromatic abstract study in blue, part II. The thought of attempting to photograph "peas" seemed comic to me. Even funnier to me though is a photograph of non-peas as a monochromatic abstraction upon the artistic concept of peas. Okay, I'll keep my day job.

Wow, 2 in a row for you....You are getting a lot of mileage out of this one. (Fyi it was not me that gave you the 10). Word to the wise, though, the natives grow restless with this one. You might be carved open, stuffed with blue peas, and then slow roasted over a blue flame (fueled by your many brown ribbons) till tender...

You might try going for the "Photographer of most questionable work" persona on DPC and use roughly the same image every time. But then you would probably get to the point where everyone took it upon theirselves to give you a 10 and ruin your shot at the brown and, as a whole, end up handing you the blue. Hmm...coincidence in your choice of color?

This was my favorite. It makes me feel better when I look at it.

Hey, I dig abstract. It's too early in the morning to be contemplative, but I like your explanation...

I look forward to part iii of your monochromatic abstraction series. ;-)

A little neatimage would help with the noise in the bottom right half of the pic. That said, I'm not sure what you're up to with the pea challenge. Sorry, if this is subtle I must have missed it.

Looks like you're intentionally using this blue to try for the brown. Good luck. :-/

Huh?! Sorry, not getting ANY connection to the challenge at all. Trying to set a record for DNMC comments? ;^)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This same look could probably be achieved without taking a photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/15/2006 10:59:00 AM
what can I say?

These bluish-hued peas are enjoyed all across the Quon continent. Used in Recipes: Celerity Salad; Green Curry; Hedgehog Pie; Pea Soup; Soy Milk. Also whole green peas and green split peas are derived from spring sown field peas (pisum sativum) and are usually referred to as blue peas before they are processed. So I guess you meet the callenge! You get an 8 for making me look it up!

Now you must be kidding. This is the same image as in the fire challange.
You should check your camera. It seems it is broken :-)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/15/2006 07:14:37 AM
Did you forget something here (like the challenge subject ;-) or is it very subtle camouflage ?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/15/2006 05:40:27 AM
OK, I give. But check your DOF, it's a little off.
