Sam your snowman makes me smile, your daddy and mommy must be very proud of you. I'd love to be in Grand Falls playing in the snow with you, I'm sure you have a lot more snow today. Brenda from Caswell, Maine, now living in Arizona.
i liked the finger in the photo(i gave this a 10) because it gave the photo a for real feel-you know that a human took this photo-only critique i have is that the snowman was crooked and i think the snowman should be fired as a model for such a poor display.
Hi Samuel! Don't be too upset, you'll get better with your daddys help and come back and blow us away with all your talent!! Good luck on the next challenge and what a wonderful snowman he is! Keep clicking!
Hmm... finger in the way, crooked, reflection in window - no, what really causes this photo to score low is the fact that the snowman is missing an eye, not to mention arms!
I wonder if you went for the brown ribbon in this challenge?
I recon you are going to get it.
There is so much wrong with this picture that it makes it great.
Good luck i hope you get the score you were after
iknow that youre going to be getting a lot ofcooments exactly like this....but here goes anyway.
First off there is a finger in the photo...honestly you could have seen what the picture loooked like then taken another one.
Second the picture is crooked.. this is a big nono, and evn if this was the desired affect it really doesnt add that much to the photo.
Last but not least it seems like this photo was taken throgh a window. This is fine aslong as you take the photo at an angle, so there is no reflection.
Overall it seems lik eyou could have spent more time setting up this shot.
Tilted horizon, blurred object in lower left corner . . . . . . . I think you need to give more thought to composition - I really don't know what your subject is - the snowman (falling off the frame at this angle), the house across the street. When shooting for competition think carefully about what your subject is . . . . then compose your shot to showcase that subject.
Watch out for fingers (or other things that can get in front of the lens). It's good that the snowman is not in the center of the shot--that helps add interest. Try to keep the horizon line, in this case the street, level. That is quite a snowman since it doesn't look like there was a lot of snow to work with!
brillant use of color! Artisticly tilting the camera was a good idea!! The use of the finger on the lens is simply awesome!!! An overall wonderful picture....you should be proud!!!
This photo looks like a snapshot to me and not a good photograph. Did you choose the diagonal line of the street on purpose? And is it a finger covering the lens at the left?
Must I comment? OK - I recognise the snowman, but can't figure out what that is on the left of the shot.... could it be a finger ... in front of the shutter?
It doesn't look like you put a lot of thought into this, maybe I am wrong but it looks like a snap you took quickly looking out your door. Maybe its the angle and the blurry image in the corner, sorry but it doesn't work for me.
This is soooo on purpose. Have fun reading the self-righteous comments critiquing this picture. I'll give you a 1, cuz I know that's what you're going for. Well done in the bizarro world.
This image is one that I'll go out on a limb for. I love the angle and the finger in the way...they add some "character" to the shot. The snowman, missing one eye, symbolizes a lot about how we don't see things clearly and as they really are. The monochrome grass/road/sky add to the cold, empty feeling...as if the snowman were truly alone in the world. Very raw, emotive, and remote image. 10.
Try to keep your camera level and watch out where you put your fingers.
Your idea for using "Snow" was a good one and the snowman helped get the idea there even if there wasn't much snow left on the ground. Keep trying hard.
