| | | 1. The black and white doesn't work. It looks like a desaturated digital photo. 2. Trash this one and start over. There's no point of focus and too much and too little going on at the same time. 3. Nicely done. Good exposure and composition. 4. Interesting and almost as good but the uneven exposure takes away from the photo. 5. This one is ok. But that's it. I wouldn't use it in a set. The largeness of the mill has defeated the wideness of your camera's frame. Either use a fisheye or shoot this kind of a shot from underground. [last edit 11/29/2005 1:14 AM by mada - edited 1 times]
The following sentence is false. The preceding sentence is true. |

| | | I think #1 would be great, except it looks overexposed, and like it was printed on expired paper or something. #2 isn't bad, but definitely missing a focal point. #3 totally stands out as the best.

Desaturated, yes - digital, no. Here was the original:
Ok, so what about this one: 6:

| | | Hey, nice to see someone else's take on Bethlehem. I think the bottom three are the strongest. Good compositions that follow the rule of thirds, good light, etc. The exposure might be a off in #4, bit it's difficult to get a an indoor/outdoor shot like that properly exposed in the first place. As it is, it would be a good candidate for a b&w conversion. As for #5, it's fine the way it is and using a fish-eye lens, as Mada suggests, would just be kind of cheesy and pointless, imo. #1 is showing the limitations of your camera or lens, which is unfortunate because the composition is nice. The soft flare at the bottom right is the most distracting part. I probably would've tightened up the crop a bit more. Try taking a bit off the left side to get rid of that one cross-brace and bring things down to a more traditional 8x12 size image. #3 is probably the weakest of the lot. There are too many blown highlights in the roof with purple fringing (are you sure these were taken using film??) and there's really no clear subject. When taking pictures like this with strong diagonals, you should consider giving your lines something to point at, somewhere to go. In this particular case, the eye wants to follow the diagonals over to the right side, but there's no pay-off. They get cut off and don't lead to anything interesting. So it's back to the bottom left corner, but unfortunately there's nothing very interesting going on over there either. The end result is a rather bland, and unbalanced photo.

| | | #6 is a really cool location! The composition is pretty cluttered though.

Thanks. I agree on the fish-eye thing - not a big fan of fish-eye lenses.

It was taken with a Canon A1 Pro with a Canon 50mm lens. I think the big thing was incorrect exposure (I should have bracketed) and cheap ISO400 kodak film.

Did you mean #2? Pictures #2 through #6 were taken with my digital, I was shooting a mixture of both that day. It is a tough building to shoot in. Odd lighting, pretty large building, but full to the brim with pipes/valves/etc.
