Challenge: Free Study XII (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon PowerShot S2 IS
Location: amish corner store
Date: Aug 27, 2006
Galleries: Rural
Date Uploaded: Aug 28, 2006

 we were driving through a small town when i saw these sitting by a little store called amish corner, where these chairs are handmade by the amish. i wasn't trying to grunge it, it was a rainy cloudy day, the ground was wet, darkening it a bit made the colors pop.

great tones and composition, it really needs that big arcing line coming down. and I can feel the texture of those chairs! I also like the white wall vs. the dark dark foreground. 8

Seems like there is too much shadow under the chairs.

Great photo except for the dark shadows. I would have liked to see them a bit lighter. The darkness seems to take away from the chairs.

I don't get the connection between amish and grunge.

Cool shot. I think I would have liked it better if the two chairs on the right were side by side and not in front of the other. Nice capture though.

Technical: i think the idea is great, if the chairs weren't so centered in the frame it would be even better! the coloring is great, dodging and burning works well...
Creativity: it difintely is out of the norm...which i love!!!
Personal Opinion: it's one of those photos that makes you wonder who sits there and the work they might have put into each and every chair...
Score: 7
