Challenge: Triptych III (Basic Editing*)
Camera: Apple iPhone 3Gs
Date: Oct 19, 2009
Date Uploaded: Oct 17, 2009

 I took these while walking along at a mall, my iPhone at eye level. I wait until my subject is quite close, so I have no time to frame it perfectly. I knew I'd have to crop. I wanted to see what the effect of the setting sun would be & I'm surprised they turned out this well. The color is uninteresting, so I chose BW.

Much underrated by this mob. Technical gloss is what matters most but this has more content than 90% of the others and a genuine triptych.

I’m sorry, but it feels like these are random snapshots put together. 5

As your title suggests the light is too bright. Also it looks like the middle pic is OOF

OK. That's pretty weird. I didn't know you were a magician. Images are too dark to be engaging. I find this image confusing as to its message.

I assume the intent is to imply that the one lady appears out of the light or something, but most of what I see is images with a poor focus and the sun causing a real hot spot

i find the lense flare distracting in these, especially the middle, which is so blurry. the image on the left is definitly the strongest of the bunch.

I am sorry, but I am not too fond of shots straight into the sun.
