Photo Assignment #2
Thank you everyone for the awesome level of participation in last week's "photo assignment".
This week's theme is "fresh".
Now shut down your computer, grab your camera, and go enjoy the first taste of spring.
|
|
|
lalala... *didn't just read the assigment to be flesh*
82% chance of rain
|
|
|
you can post pictures of your flesh if you want...
(sorry, pervy moment there)
|
|
|
hurray for fresh flesh...
|
|
|

not spring yet, but turning into spring as the creek melts
|
|
|
the netting or fencing in the background takes away from the image imo
|
|
|
was that taken since I posted this thread? EXIF shows it was taken in 2004....
|
|
|
you didn't actually specify the images should be taken specifically for this, just hinted - wanderlust did, and it probably bears repeating. 'tis entirely
possible that the above poster's camera date could be off, of course. mine's perpetually in 1999, having no memory of it when the batteries run
out...
add salt, one pinch, if desired

the netting was meant to be in the pic, showing a clash between society and nature

pic was taken feb 27th 2006
|
|
|
yeah, sorry. My fault. Is it too late to say "photos must be taken after the start of this thread"?
|
|
|
well, i still think the netting doesn't do anything but distract. i don't think it's visible enough to be making that statement.
|
|
|
plus that part doesn't really have anything to say about freshness ;)
add salt, one pinch, if desired
|
|
|
yeah dude, your photo sucks. Go take another.
|
|
|
OUCH, obviously this picture wasn't taken for this thread seeing as how it had a seperate meaning and it was taken like two weeks ago
thats no reason to bash the pic!
|
|
|
you can easily reconcile yourself - now you know the guidelines, go out and take a 'fresh' picture!

i think the net gives the pic a nice twist. i mean if it wasn't for the net it would just be a nature scene, which is quite boring, as beautiful as
it is. but i agree it's not strong enough to make any statement at all. a net is not a great symbol of society or technology as well...

I think that had the blue cast been removed from the photo and the orange / red levels been increased around the area of the "net", it would have
had a better impact.
As for now, I'll just pretend there's an invisible polar bear in the middle of the frame. It looks much better that way.
K - back on topic.

i experimented on photoshop making the netting brighter and more of an eyesore, but it just made the picture look uglier. i had some other pics to
demonstrate my aim, but i felt this one fit the "fresh" idea best.

Would a sea lion do? I took a pic of one just yesterday.
|
|
|
I like this assigment, good topic Caca.
|
|
|
I think I shall have to participate in this one.
|
|
|
Well, it's not Spring here, but I managed to get a couple of photos that say Fresh to me. I'm not a photographer, so they're nothing particularly
special.

I took these yesterday with my cell phone camera, so thank you for putting up with the low quality already in advance.
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|

indeed :P though most of them were quite uninspiring so that's at least an incentive to go out and use my eyes...

Can I come and live in your kitchen plz. I don't take up much room. I'll stay in the cupboard under the toaster.
|

(camera phone quality too, sorry about that)
