oh geez, I had my credit card stolen once... lost 700$ (luckily the bank gave it back to me)... 8- looks almost as if the focus is at the bottom of the picture...
Your picture does display the fear of "Stolen Identity" very well. It is well composed and shows good DOF. I think it would be better if you could have included some other item to lock it in to the fear factor, because a lot of people will not be able to imagine what you mean.
what a drag if this was true. i think this pic is underexposed. a levels adjustment could help alot. also, not sure about the part at the very top, ie if i want to see more of the environemnt or less. i think if you're going to shot the horizon you might want to show more. and maybe some people walking by... just ideas. mag 99
I like the idea, but it might have worked better horizontal or from a slightly different angle so that you didn't get the distraction of the pavement at the top.
since you have so little of the horizon, it may have been better to go ahead and crop it out altogether. This is scary. A $100 sticking out of the wallet would have been interesting, but if your wallet is like mine, those may be scarce. :-) karmat
Very creative! I'm not sure I like the framing though... I wonder how this would look with a horizontal framing - the elements in the top of the picture distract a bit, and there appears to be a lot of empty space above the wallet. On the other hand, it does introduce some nice DOF. Good job! - 8
This is a definite fear.. :) I would have preferred this shot be either framed horizontally or cropped a little tighter across the top to remove the high horizon.. = 7 - jmsetzler
needed the title too understand the image. good idea but lacks a message by itself. at first glance I thought itwas "lost wallet". now that would be scarey. "7" for the idea, "5" for the interpretation. Dogman :-) "6"
lighting is bland... needs more contrast... if you are going for that open road look you should have probably cropped off the top bit to put more road or raised the camera a bit to get more road. Try to avoid getting only a little of something. Always go for substantial quantity or none at all.
I get the idea. Sometimes I fear about losing my wallet. I think you should have shown either more of the gras at the top or none at all. Besides that it's a great shot!
Nice idea, but it could be sharper and it looks pretty staged. Also I would like to have seen the top cropped out or this shot at a different angle to avoid the curb. The depth on the road gives me a good enough idea of where this was shot. Maybe a sidewalk on a busy street would work as well.
Not sure if you're allowed to adjust brightness and contrast of the images but that is about the only thing I'd wanna see done here. Otheriwse, very original.
