5 Jun 19 Reply Thanks David! I always enjoy the creativity of your photographs, when I posted this I had you in mind. What would David do with this photo? Jun 26th
5 Jun 19 Reply Thanks Pete, this was one those moments when art mimics life. This is just one of several hundred images on film that I have been reviewing. I don't even know what lens or camera setting were but I do wish that I had a little more DoF. I see what you mean about the artifact on the statue's back, it may be a chromatic aberration because of the light coming from behind. You are right about the green being too saturated. Thanks again for your keen eye. Jun 16th
5 Jun 19 Comment You certainly have an imagination when it comes to photographic art, I like the giraffe skin FG. As mentioned above, shadows would complete the picture but I believe it might be very difficult to do given the direction of the light. Jun 16th
5 Jun 19 Comment Great shot! Sometimes you have to be at the right spot at the right time with camera ready. I agree with Barbara and Pete on darkening the BG and FG; I used Nik Viveza to darken and desaturate the two areas. Additionally, I thought a bit of a crop could be used. Jun 16th
5 Jun 19 Comment Great shot! Our CC had a guest speaker who had some "water" shots but I think she was using glycerin. I looked to B&H photo for these tools, does the valve actually trigger the camera when it releases the drop of water?
Perhaps Santa will leave these items under the Christmas tree for me. It looks like a lot of fun.		 Jun 16th
5 Jun 19 Comment You have captured a story; I'm assuming the young boy on the left will be tossing the coin as he looks ready to send it up in the air. I agree with Terri, the background elements are a little distracting; perhaps a little tighter crop to try to eliminate as much of the audience and the other players as possible. This story is the "Coin Toss"; there seems to be another story in the background with some fans and one of the other players. Jun 16th
5 Jun 19 Comment Excellent capture of a young boy that missed an opportunity. Everything is sharp, you can even see the texture in his jersey. I agree with Terri's recommendation of removing some of the red from his eyeballs. Jun 11th
