UER Forum > Archived UE Photo Critiques > Cleveland Hospital (Viewed 441 times) InsertNameHere  Location: North County San Diego Gender: Male We were playing flashlight tag, officer!  |  |  Cleveland Hospital < on 12/2/2005 9:24 PM >   I took these a few weeks ago with my Nikon N75 at a partially closed hospital near Cleveland. I had to scan the prints themselves, which led to a reduction in quality, and then some editing I did (zooming and cropping, rotating, etc.) led to further reduction in quality - so while they're somewhat blurry and jaggy at times, I think you get the general idea. I'd like you to tear them apart please, particularly when it comes to color and saturation in addition to composition. http://img202.imag...age=hopital3zl.jpg http://img219.imag...=hopital0042mw.jpg http://img219.imag...=hopital0081nf.jpg http://img219.imag...=hopital0112bm.jpg http://img219.imag...=hopital0136qm.jpg http://img216.imag...=hopital0195xr.jpg http://img216.imag...=hopital0029nj.jpg http://img216.imag...=hopital0031hv.jpg http://img216.imag...=hopital0050tt.jpg [last edit 12/2/2005 9:25 PM by InsertNameHere - edited 1 times] A cage went in search of a bird. nobody  Location: VANCOUVER B.C.

Put a nice border around it (so as to separate the white sky from the white page background) and I think it's a step in the right direction. A lot of people will whine about negative space, but they've taken too many BFA classes. There seems to be some weird stuff going on with the edges though? They look oddly jagged. The rest, while they may do the job for documentary, are all pretty snapshot-ish.

I like the chair composition and its in decent shape even! Perhaps you could scoot the chair around and get a more dead-on aim photo and give it a shallow DOF. http://img219.imag...=hopital0112bm.jpg I like this one a lot. Give it a nice frame, as Servo suggested http://img219.imag...=hopital0136qm.jpg Nice details on the windows, shows the old hand blown glass a lot. Not like the manufactured stuff on a mass scale today. The vines and whatnot sort of detract from the photo IMO, but you really can't do much with that anyhow. http://img216.imag...=hopital0195xr.jpg Snapshot quality. Is that entire thing closed?? http://img216.imag...=hopital0029nj.jpg I like this one, for the sake that it draws the viewer down the stairs and to the door. http://img216.imag...=hopital0031hv.jpg Another angle? Nice photos. I would see if I could get a film scanner for negatives, I use plustek Opticfilm 7200, on sale. Although its not the highest quality, it works perfectly fine and my photos have been scanned with that and used in prints and other media distrubutions. VueScan is a NICE and FREE program that is FAR better than the prepackaged crap that comes with it.
