"....This one is a little too fuzzy. What is that on the mirror?" Jubei Kibagami
"....I'm not sure what the subject of your picture was? Mirror with the sweetgrass?
Anyway, I bet your car smells great on a hot summers day with that sweetgrass :-)" kinzua00
My guess is also that the obect placed on the mirror is braided sweet grass. This is a very interesting picture...... a beautiful aroma as negative space!!!!
What is subject and background here? NS should have a strong subject, and a background that causes the subject to stand out. At least the is my interpretation.
Eye goes to the subject right away. I myself would play with the tone curve(s) to try and keep a little more texture in the clouds while retaining the overall silhouette look. Limited resolution is causing the diagonal lines to get a bit jaggy, but they're supposed to be in the background anyway.
I like your concept, your light, and your framing. The only thing really letting you down here is your camera. The resolution of your camera is showing around the edge of the mirror and on the white lines on the road. Not your fault and I wouldn't mark you down for it. 8 - floyd
Meets the challenge as I understand it. This could be better if there were something interesting as a focal point, imo. BUT... It has a good, strong diagonal. Good luck in the challenge...it's a tough one! Grayce aka Gracious
this shot qualifies for the challenge, however, the photo is rather pixelated, probably due to the file being saved at only 38kb, where up to 150kb are allowed. there are some tutorials on this site to help you maximize the photo quality, i'd also be happy to try and help if you want to send me an email. -- gr8photos.
