with work now on display at:

Don Roberts - Royal Gorge
I thought from the title I'd be seeing a gorge. There's a whole
bunch of technical stuff I'm not quite sure about - like why does
there seem to be some lightness in the bridge grid work in the center
below the cables. And what did Don think about the balance between
the strong diagonal lines in the upper left and the grid work on the
right side. The image doesn't seem to be deliberate and, rather than
being "creative" it looks random.
Quintin Tallon - Eric Girard 007
The contrast is really pushed hard, to me. I wonder as well how
sharp the image is. Being out of the mainstream culture, I also
wonder who Eric Girard is and whether I'm somehow supposed to know.
Roy Miller - Time Get Blown Away
Well this is fun, and colorful, and I'll bet it was fun to make. I'd
prefer all the flying to go in the same direction, however.
Christopher Strevens - Roman Soldier
Snapshot of guy at Ren Faire pretending, with distracting too-sharp
unrelated folks strolling by behind. Sort of akin to all the
families standing in front of the railing in front of Niagara Falls -
'lookit us! We went to Niagara Falls!"
Trevor Cunningham - torajan rice field
Hmm. Are the rice fields up the hill or down where the person is?
And what are those piles of something yellow? I'm not sure I'd have
left the curved line with the piles of yellow stuff there. The
contrast between its curve and the curve at the base of the hill
makes me uneasy.
Gregory david Stempel - Seattle Space Needle No. 4
It's fun to do this. The wind must be blowing gently to keep the
highway signs slightly unsharp. Perhaps it was not necessary to use
quite such a long exposure or small aperture to get the same effect?
Then the risk of blowing out the white lights would have been
lessened? Did you experiment with wider apertures?
