Challenge:Black & White (Classic Editing) Camera:Minolta DiMAGE 7 Location: My Front room Date: May 30, 2002 Aperture: F/3.4 ISO: ISO 160 Shutter: 1/91 sec Date Uploaded: Jun 2, 2002
Considering my first entry was of Pierre Cardin Watch in Advertisment Challenge and scored over 5 points on average I thought this would do much better. I didn`t expect to win but an average vote of under average 4.779 is a complete shock. I expected to reach 5.000 or a little above. Cannot understand the 7 that voted this as a 1 or the 16 that voted a 2 as none of them seem to have given me any comments. Maybe it was to try and get their scores up a little. Hopefully I`ll get some comments from them now as to why they such poor votes on my entry. I don`t hold grudges on anyone and if I like the submissions I give good votes on them & if I don`t i try to let them know why I didn`t like it.
Great shot and title. Just a tad more even lighting would make the photo even better. I'm no expert at lighting, but I believe the Classic Photo Course under the tutorials has some information on it. Multiple light-sources or moving the light source (or in this case the chair since it looks as if you used natural light) may be options.
Cube baby shot. I think it would have been better without the toy/label at the bottom. Maybe just a little too much exposure on the left side of the face, somewhat washed out, upper cheek mostly. Photo 8 Creativity 6 B&W 7 total 7
And I thought my son was the only one who felt this way! :-) If the face had shown some of the same emotion, it would have been awesome; however, I fully understand that babies don't always cooperate.
