color slightly washed out. it seems like this is a new/your first camera and you are just getting used to it. turn the date stamp off. it seems useful, but your files are already tagged with the date while they are in the camera.
The colors and textures of the gun are well rendered. From a composition point of view, I think the pucture would be far more expressive shooting straight into the barrel. And the red date stamp can ruin any picture; there has to be a way to shut it off.
Yeah... Unfortunately this has some text on it and it distracts from the canon. Perhaps a more angular shot of the canon would be better suited for this photo. I would have approached this from the ground up on an angle to show power (submissive when on the bottom) and that would also be in line with the challenge.
The title is also mispelled.
Ugg! pictures with dates stamped on them might best be kept for a personal photo album, not a challenge. It gives it such a touristy snapshot feel. Sorry I did not rate this very well. The subject looks weathered and has alot of character other aspects might have worked better for you here eg. closer differerent views/aspects.
Oops, earlier I commented on being out of the submission dates when later it was brought to my attention this is a valid date given dd/mm/yyyy. Sorry. At any rate, I would opt to turn that feature off when taking photos for a challenge.
This shot could be improved greatly with some "rule-of-thirds" composition and some tigher cropping. Also, the red digital date stamp really detracts from this image.
on overcast days sometimes using b&w will bring out the detail and contrast and help a picture. looks more retired than deatly, but i'll take your word for it :-)
This is a very straightforward approach to the subject -- perhaps something unexpected, or very expected such as looking down the barrel. Also, I'm sure you're getting hammered on for the date.
The focus seems a little soft overall. Maybe apply some sharpening in your post-processing. IMO: the red date detracts from the photo. Can you turn this off? This information is usually captured in the JPEG information and is not needed on the photo itself.
The image quality is so-so, but the fact that you couldn't be bothered to turn off the date on your camera fails to impress, I'm afraid. I think it may also be against the challenge rules to have text in your image, but that's beside the point.
