well it take slazy days like this for me to review a PF gallery, so... >Dan Mitchell - The shopping expedition yes you are right. it is a good lighting. But i feel you captured the shot from a 180 deg wrong angle. did anyone notice tath the lady has her left hand raised at eye level, obviously shading her eyes? probably they are both watvhing the crew tending the grass...there is a story in this image but sadly it is lost in the shadow of their backs >Laurenz Bobke - Sun, Sky, Rocks and Water well, i feel it would be like thsi had i taken that trip to Norway. the key here are the brownish colors...never ever have i seen such a sunset goodie! >Kostas Papakotas - Looking Out well, Bob was right. it looks fake or staged, but it not still i wonder of all the things that went right...proper depth of field, focusing point, just enough exposure to balance the forward comming light with the shadows...and all coming from a starting amateur brandishing his new F55... maybe it is not an art photo, but isn't it so technically GOOD? >King/Arthur - Whew! stunning photo, but i feel it hasbecome messy with all those explanation on it...were it mine i would keep as it was, and i would put all the info on a white bottom frame piece...the viewers' idea that the earth is really there is strengthening the cosmic scale perception of the event >Enrico Christion - enlightenment i guess the term "modern era cave paintings " (expression tatering in the contemporary urban environment) best describes the photo. i feel this one could be inplace as part, or even as an individual excibit in a contemporary arts museum... impressive >Christiane Roh - Lausanne, Pl. de la Palud, november 2002 what i like is teh hybridism in this one. the dark left side which enters the right hand bright one with the help of the brown artifact but i would like it1-2 stops lighter. ( isn't there still room for adjustment on the white cloth ?) >Elisha Page - the comment on the dark shaded area holds true for me too. i feel it disturbs the impressive ascention feeling of the towering buildings >Emily L. Ferguson - Russells Mills pond, S. Dartmouth, MA to me is just one of those landscapes that i can't stand anymore, but i guess i'll have to train on reviewing 'cos i'll have to comment on the landscapes of a lady co-worker of mine soon ;-)get the meaning? so emily, what i did not like is the lack of light colored areas in this frame...the elements get all mixed and un-individualized... >Andrey Ivanitsky - Montmartre hmm it feels too small, too crowdy... >Richard Cooper - Safe Harbour out of all the colours, i get the feeling that it won't be that safe . plus it reminds me of such a chilling -turning-to-rain- photo session of mine....brrrrr! > Bob Talbot - Birth and Death well either the bay has made poopoo or has a very good idea of what is happening... >Guy Glorieux - Old Montreal 1 hmm..not much to say, but concerning the technique, a more impressive subject should have been chosen...those cars are too dominant even reversed that's all guys....see ya, ksoats =============================================== so... no matter what, CHEER UP MY FRIENDS!
