I like this composition a lot but the colors seem a little dim -- not as vibrant as they could be and even a little blue. I'd love to see that meter as teh bright candy apple red color it appears to be.
Well executed shot. Joke time: No car, no pay - Be a pal, put up a nickle for the poor slob. Seriously, your shot is perfectly framed and focused. It's a bit dull. Suggestions for the dullness - see your reflection in the glass? try it in a location where YOU show up better in that reflection, or shoot with a car in the spot and ask a friend to hold up a ticket sized paper, out of focal range, towards the car (suggesting the receipt of a ticket, ha,ha) or with the paper visible on the windshield. Get the idea? Have fun, make it fun for the viewer, too! Photo 9 City 7 Total 8
Becasue of the white lines in the background, and teh sidwalk on the lower left, I think a different angle would have served this picture better. The use of the color red is very effective, though at making the shot stand out.
God, I hate those things. I"m confused about the pricing though..does that actually say: 30 mins for one dime (for your convenience) and then it says 30 mins for one quarter? Wish the city I lived in was so nice. Our meters don't even ACCEPT dimes or nickels. Good shot. Great use of aperature.
very nice. just a tad off center which detracts a bit from the overall feeling. but a great interpretation of the challenge and a well done shot. love the red contrast with the dull background. nicely done.
I like this. Would a polarized lens take care of the reflection/glare off the glass? Would be great if there was a car in the spot...an old beater or a jag, can't decide. Could be a little brighter. 7
If there was a parking meter within 100 miles of me, I would have tried to photograph it for this challenge also :) I would have also looked for some really cool angle other than straight on. I may have laid on my back on the ground and photographed someone putting money in it... :) good shot! = 7 -jmsetzler
Good color. Not sure if you have any more control over depth of field, but if so maybe try blurring the back ground a little more. If not.. ignore that. I still think it's a good shot either way.
