I love the choice of using a traffic light as your source. Unfortunately the cripsness of the billiard balls is lost and the strange background of the blanket doesn't do much to help your overall composition. I would suggest having more negative space to the right and perhaps spacing the balls (maybe only one ball per color) further away from the source. Your color exposure is great, Like the rich, saturated quality of the light. |

Interesting. I know you used the angle you did to show the traffic light. I think a shot taken from directly overhead would show the balls nicely also. 10 |

Interesting idea. A tighter crop and a a less wrinkled dropcloth might have helped. |

where in the name of all that is holy did you find a set of traffic lights? i'm deeply impressed! i'm intrigued to know why you decided to focus the light on pool balls though - i can't help but think an opportunity was slightly missed by not having something longish and metallic. i'm deeply impressed with the set-up though. a bit of even spread with the focus might help (the balls at the front appear fuzzy); as would moving the camera to the right a bit, or using a sheet of glossy white card off camera to the left reflecting the light sources, all so we can see the balls lit up (all we see is the shadows and the light on the sheet). interesting shot that looked quite fun to do. 5. |

I'm thinking this might work better with the light or camera at a different angle so that the reflection of the colors on the balls showed up better. Also, lacking in sharpness and detail some of which is likely due to overcompression. Try saving with a higher jpeg quality setting. |
