No this is NOT a sarcastic post - I am being very sincere. The lackluster response to my 2012 November FS got me to look really hard and long. Some feedback gave me insight on my failure to do my best on presenting a cool concept.
The original had big problems with dull skin tones and contrasts. I really need to get better on that because it has been a hit or miss for me in the past. I had always envisioned this concept to have clouds but Mother Nature was not kind enough to provide them on the day of the shoot. I could not find her number to call in the request:-)
So , now the concept moved from Basic shot for Umbrellas, to Advanced to fix several problems that I thought I had finished, to Expert with adding the clouds in to match the vision in my head.
My other regret was a cutesy title (Memories Go Round) that did nothing to really express what the story was. A better title was sorely needed.
Thank you to the 'Meh' Voters, you showed me I needed to do better.
So here is what it SHOULD have been:
