Ewww. This takes me back to Jr. high. . .I really like your focus on this one. Typically, the subject is in front and focused, and the background blurred, but this is almost completely reversed. Nicely done. I think this would make a cool textbook picture. I am also hereby declaring you dpc's most underrated photographer. All of your pictures are *good* technically, emotionally (that is, they get a response), compositionally, the voters just haven't discovered you yet. KEEP SHOOTING, it's not always the dpc scores that matter.
it's very real Hanae, was just taken AFTER school with one of my students.
Thanks so very much rinac and jude> I too thought it exuded SCHOOL biology. But, I wish I'da gone with the small crop of mostly disection with wet frog...BUT I also liked the community college Tshirt she was wearing (totally accidental) and I left the fuzzy clutter (all things one definetly uses in biology lab) and dof because I felt what Rinac did...threw me right into the frog...alas, sigh, others did not like the DOF at all and wanted the 'clutter' removed..shrugs...
Oh, this brings back memories... eww! A bit too much "stuff" in the foreground, but I don't think you could meet the challenge any better with the subject!
Interesting angle. With all of the out-of-focus clutter in the foreground, it makes me feel like the "dissector" is disorganized, and doesn't know what he/she is doing. I like this effect.
I like where this photo is going. I imagine myself sitting at the end of the bench looking at whats going on. I think it needs to be framed a little better to see the subject more clearly and to delete some of the clutter in the foreground. There is also a yellow cast distracting.
Good shot overall. I think the microscope and other out of focus tools up front kind of take away from the image though. I think it could have been stronger had it just been the kid and the frog.
Wow looks like you had perfect access to a perfect setting but I feel the foreground items and half microscope distract too much rather than set the scene. Nice lighting.
