79 May 23 Reply The frogs behind the door are in focus as shot with the 45MP Nikon Z7. A possible illusion that they are out of focus is the substantial reduction in file size to accommodate the 768 pixel high format for this website. Judith, you can look at a 16x20 print of this image at tomorrow's meeting to see how sharp the critters are. Karl May 14th
79 May 23 Comment Hi Lauren, What a challenge to get a sharp image of such a dimensional subject as shown by the added image. Great job in replacing a light and correcting for the bright downlights. You successfully found the center spot, too. It's a beautiful old theater. You captured the ceiling well in great detail, warmth, and beauty. Karl May 11th
79 May 23 Comment Hi Freddie, The image is a great moment in movement. The muscles and expressions imply strength, force, and motion. It's a difficult task for a photographer to clearly show all 5 faces with separation between them and other elements. Nicely done. Stage lighting can be very difficult to deal with in photography. Multi-colored lighting can get complicated. The overall warm (hot?) tones here emphasize the meaning of the scene. Congrats on getting photography access and for a really good performance image.

79 May 23 Comment Hi Gerard, You may have been thinking of Jamie Wyeth's painting of a pig. We see a lot of references to it down here at the Brandywine River Museum in Chadds Ford, PA. This image is a bit of a snapshot. Certainly it captures some of the character of the critter. For a more effective 'fine art' image, a head on image at eye level with reduced depth of field would help. That might eliminate or soften the cage wire and second pig so we could concentrate more on the subject's character. Karl May 11th
79 May 23 Comment Hi Judith, The final image looks like a graphic catalog illustration. I get all of the 'planes' but that is somewhat obscure in the bright scene removed from the reality of what we see with our eyes. I could do without the small knot in the wood in the upper left quadrant. Removing and subduing areas of background give a nice dimensional effect. As an artistic graphic illustration, the image is excellent. It could have been drawn with color pencils. Karl May 11th
