Challenge:The Past (Classic Editing*) Camera:Sony DSC-S85 Location: Ware, MA Date: Aug 16, 2003 Aperture: 1:2.8 Shutter: 1/80 Date Uploaded: Aug 16, 2003
This is a good subject for the challenge. I am not fond of how you cropped the front of the cart though. Generally, I like to have some space in front of an object. It makes it not seem so cramped. I think that the crop here is way too close. I realize that you were trying to get in on the subject for detail, which I really like, but It seems so very forced. Lighting is great. No distracting shadows or hot spots. And focus is also nice. My only complaint is the crop, which you couldn't do much for for this challenge, however, framing it in camera differently would have helped for the challenge.
Composition: Nice use of thirds. I may have used a bit of "manual wide angle" and stepped back a few feet to get the whole cart in shot, if possible.
Technical: Good focus and nice contrast.
Meets challenge: Yes
Overall impression: Can't help but think a different composition would help a lot.
