Photographers Notes
Emulating the following Photo:
Challenge: Curves
Date: April 2002
Title: Needle in Red
Photographer: timj351 (Tim Jensen)
Camera: Sony DSC-F707
Aperture: F/5.6
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/500
Editing: Classic
For the record, Tim is a 9-ribbon-winner and a kind-of-a-sort-of-a-neighbor, which is to say we live in the same state less than 30 miles apart, but dont know each other. Hes a fine photographer and it was a thrill for me to stand exactly where he stood, and capture exactly the subject he captured.
Obviously, these images were taken at different times of the day. The lighting and light direction are somewhat different. This is September. The original was taken in April. Get over it. If you divide our images in half
I like my right half better than his, and I like his left half better than mine.
This was fun
thanks, Tim, for the inspiration!
Also, Tim, I just hope I will get something close to your original score, which was awesome!

| A wonderful emulation on the original! Love the flow of shapes and colors in both this one and the original. Love how you got the angle just right to replicate the sweep of the curve that cuts diagonally across the image from left to right. Colors are bold and vibrant and sharpness is spot on! Well done. |

| Guess what? You win the matchup against Tim. I like the reds of yours over the orangishness of his and yours is much, much sharper. |

| Even better then the original! Whilst I like this a lot I don't think it's as interesting as some of the other entries. A solid entry though |
