While I understand that there is a lot of movement in the water and without a fast shutter speed, it might have been difficult to get a crisp focus, I do wish that there were a sharper focus somewhere in the photo. Even the trees are a little too soft for my personal taste. I think it represents the movie well, and I also think that the angle and framing/cropping are good. I like how you have put the people over to the right and left space to the left of the photo. Overall nice, just needs to be a bit crisper. ~Heather~
Exposure is good. Composition is good. Quality seems off somehow. There are, what appears to be, artifacts around the ppl. Low end camera or bad software maybe? Too bad that it'll negatively affect the score since it really isn't your fault.
1. Did you capture a scene from the movie (as the challenge brief states) or did you enter a picture and fit a title to it.
2. How close a rendition is your image to the movie.
3. How does the image stand up in its own right.
In this case:
1. Yes, this scene will be familiar to people who have either seen the film or the advertising
2. This is obviously your own interpretation of the scene and actually quite true to the movie
3. The picture is very strong in its own right. The darker detail in the trees has been captured without losing the highlights in the river. On close inspection there appears to be some jpeg artifacts in the reflections but this doesn't distract greatly.
Overall a very good picture which both meets the challenge and stands up in its own right. 8
Oh my gosh. I thought for sure I had chosen a movie other people wouldn't think of. Who would have guessed fly fishing was so popular. I like the composition and colors in this one.
