Ok...we all pretty much know the London Eye is a "circle"...but I think by not being "obvious" about it is gonna hurt you...IMO a pic from the side I'm sure would do much better.
For this contest everyone who has the word “circle” in their title is getting a max 10 score. This is a copy and paste version that I am including in every photo that I upgrade to 10 due to the title. We as members of DPchallenge need to be reminded of the topic of the challenge – we really need to reread the topic every time we reach a photo. If circle is in the title and it is appropriate I will give a 10. I am sorry if you do not agree with my method of voting – but scores are all I have.
Relying on the viewers knowledge that the eye is in fact circular whilst showing many triangles in the photo is quite a risky proposition! The slightly off vertical slant of the wheel is distracting.
Now this is a very very cool shot! I like the tones. I'm only giving it a low score because again, I don't get CIRCLE from viewing this. If this was just in a contest for a creative view I'd give you a 8 but since that's not what the challange is i give a 2. (hey i'm just being honest here!
A circle shot from the side is a line :)... NIce perspective, I might have zoomed it out a bit. Also the wheel seems to blend into the sky, I would have either waited until a clearer day, or tried to "flatten" the angle. 4
I'm confused? I don't see how it meets the challenge... i've looked for visual circles as well as implied, or the thought of it and don't see it.What am I missing?? Please let me know so that I can reevaluate my score - JeB
