Hi Chris,

Good start to your 52.

I think that the image could benefit from cropping about 1/3 of the sky and and a bit of a lighten as the trees and building look a bit dark.

I like the composition and the colours of the sky.

Good luck with the rest of your project.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
Good call drodd. never really used and editing before just use the original image taken with the camera but i do think this looks better.

Well done Chris, a great improvement :thumbs:

I had a quick go at a b&w conversion on it tonight and that also worked quite well. Perhaps you want to have a go, just for you to see what potential your image has. I tried one or two other post processing techniques too and the image is definitely one that suits different processes to give it a different ambiance.

I look forward to seeing the pics you take in the coming weeks for this project.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
I really like the edited version, the first shot was just a little dark, nice composition :)
 
Cheers guys. Thanks dawn, will give it a go iv only got picasa3 to play around with but that seems to do the trick.
 
Nice work Chris good start to your 52 good luck with the rest of the year :thumbs:

I did a quick crop, if I could this is the shot I would have gone for, so its more prominent, nice L shape composition

Week 2 - New

Hi Chris like the shot :thumbs: maybe the white balance could be adjusted or it could be my monitor anyway good take on the theme nice one...:thumbs:
 
Hi Chris,

Nice new lens, I look forward to seeing what pics you get with it, I'm sure you find it useful for this 52 and other pics you take.

I agree with James about the WB, either that or it is the lighting you used.

I like the DOF, but think you could have positioned it with a better backgound as I find the chair and whatever the blue bit at the top is and the white box thingy to the right a little distracting. But like you said, it was a bit rushed so perhaps your attention wasn't focused on the whole detail.

Good luck with the next theme.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
Cheers guys, yea was very rushed, just got in from the pub and remembered i still needed a photo. Only used the 300mm very quickly the other day for a couple of shots of the moon and was very impressed with it :)
 
Again a last minuet attempt to be honest, been ill all week :( A style of art is graffiti !
Week 3 - Style

Hi Chris,

Sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well, hope you get better soon.

Well done on getting a shot for week 3.

I really like this image and it is definitely a style, well spotted.

You have taken this at a great angle which adds to the art.

Good luck with your week 4 image.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
Really like your week 3. Well lit and the tilted angle works well.
Has a real gritty feel with the red, black , and grungy white.

Sometimes the quickly grabbed shots are best. Hope you're feeling better.
 
Not really what i wanted the photo to end up like but i dont have any good editing software to single out colour on a B+W photo. But i did my best.
Week 4 - Open

Hiya Chris,

Great take on the theme, and I love Coleman's Mustard.

I think you have made a good attempt at the b&w focal conversion and picked up the yellow well.

My only crits are, the bit of corner in the top right of the image, perhaps crop that out. Also there are a a few scrtch lines on the counter top that are prominent, especially the two long ones bottom right and a few white spots dotted about. Perhaps if you could clone them it would benefit the image.

Well done and I look forward to your week 5.

Cheers

Dawn :)
 
Quite a smart ;) take on the theme if i do say so myself.
Week 5 - Hard

Hiya Chris,

Very clever indeed, and a great take on the theme. Can't believe I missed this one, but found it in my catch-up of replies.

Like your drawing of the raven, think he is still baffled by the whole solution. The Bayesian Solution can lead to some debate which is a very heavy subject.

On that note it is time for me to go and rest my weary head :lol:

BTW did you punch the hole in the top right out of frustraction or did the raven have a peck at it :D

Cheers

Dawn :)
