This was just one of those lucky shots. The person in the jeans is another DP Challenger, but the couple with the red umbrella just happen to be there. Thanks for the comments. I agree with all of you who said I should have gotten rid of the parking lot. Cropping is still something I am learning.
Its hard to take a bad picture of El Capitan. Yours excells with the wonderful composition and great subject matter. The RED umbrella tells the weather story. I would have liked to see the umbrella even brighter .
That red umbrella was a stroke of luck, eh? Not to mention catching Obi Wan on vacation. I always wonder when shooting other photogs; is it incest or cannibalism? Congrats on a beautiful image.
Nice shot of Yosemite, but your people came out much like shadows. A very difficult concept to pull off, people observing something in the distance and still do both the people justice. Yosemite appears to be your subject and the people got in the way. I like this concept best when you can get some face (profile) with the background, instead. Photo 8 Creativity 8 People 7 total 8
This is a little dark, of course...it's raining and I understand that. The scenery through the mist is beautiful though. I would have liked to have seen it cropped a little closer at the bottom so there isn't so much pavement showing...but I like this.
I like the splash of red against the starkness of the background Did you use fill in flash as I feel the figures in the foreground could have done with a bit of fill in flash.
I like the red umbrella. I wonder how it would have looked with the blue even more desaturated, to make those blue pants a little greyer, and pull the emphasis more towards the umbrella. Alternatively, I wonder if you could crop out the parking lot, and the girl on the left and most of that tree, leaving the umbrella on the left side of the picture.
This photo is awe-inspiring... The size of those mountains really is overwhelming. I have no critique for you on this one... The red umbrella offers a wonderful bit of contrast to go along with the weather mood in this photo... great shot! = 10
I like the red umbrella, kinda makes it look like the rest of the picture has been desaturated. I might've cropped to the bottom of the curb to cut out the "parking" word and to put a little more focus on the vastness of that mountain in the back.
The tree on the left seems to help frame the mountains nicely while the right side is left open for the eye to leave the frame.
