Challenge:Candid (Classic Editing) Camera:Sony DSC-F707 Location: Hocum Valley, CA, USA Date: Aug 26, 2002 Aperture: f 4.0 ISO: 100 Shutter: 1/320 sec Date Uploaded: Aug 31, 2002
Seems pretty grainy. The angle of the sun is a bit bad for your subjects with shadows cast across their faces. Not much detail. Odd photo angle. 6 Swash
Maybe I'm missing something here, but this looks too much like a posed photo to fall into the category of candid for me... I don't think the camera tilt really improved this particular image....
3 = Meets the Challenge 5 = Creativity 5 = Visual Impact X = Image Quality (N/A for me this challenge)
It could be a nice shot if you level the horizon and crop ost of the right part of the scene. look at //www.pbase.com/image/4443361/original it is still out of focus but the composition is better.
mood captured - trying to get a family pose to cooperate sincerity of expressions - good (love the mom looking off at ?? -- usually its one of the kids that can't cooperate)
It seems like you may almost be taunting people into giving this a bad rating. The title suggests that the group should be looking into the camera (which they are), and that defeats the "candid" requirement. Even putting that aside, I'm not fond of the tilted effect and the clarity and composition of the image. Sorry...
