| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #2 June 21st 2005 13:12:39 | I like what you've done here. The composition is quite good (IMO). I tried a modest crop to bring more focus to the tree and gate. (Edit function isn't working - I can't upload and then insert text.) | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #4 June 21st 2005 13:19:47 | I tried a more extreme crop - the light areas on the left were distracting and of no particular interest to me. This crop brings the blossoms and gate more to the forefront. I also tried darkening the stuff behind the gate a bit. My standard notice: My edits are 'quick and dirty' - I just try to present ideas and leave it up to the photographer to do the hard work if they find anything useful in my comments. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #5 June 30th 2005 12:11:31 | I'm coming back to this one and thinking what might have been done differently in the initial shot. I think that it might have worked to move a bit to the right and use the tree branch to better frame the gate. To me the blossoms and the gate are the main subjects. The tile roof and stucco walls add additional interest. If you had moved lower you might have gotten in the upper part of the gate which looks like it could be interesting. I can imagine myself looking through the viewfinder at roughly what I see in Rev2 and then going right and down. That would bring the gate further to the right side of the frame and let it show through. The left side of the frame would be used to display the thick blossoms of the swooping branch. And in the best of all possible worlds you would have found something of interest behind the gate. Or used a shallow DOF to wipe out what's there. | |||||||||||||||||||||
