Have you ever wished you could tell your childhood self a thing or two about
growing up?
Would the knowledge you know now have saved you from learning things the
hard way?

All,
My thoughts and comments on this past week's gallery just prior to the next
one.
The PhotoForum members' gallery/exhibit space was updated FEB 19, 2011.
Authors with work now on display at:
http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery.html include:
Dan Mitchell - Walkway
I like that the structure is both open and confining. Although the figure is
centered the composition works for me here.
Don Roberts - Train Pan
The auto-panorama feature, usually used by turning the camera, yields and
interesting look in this image. The linearity is almost disturbing. I like
this very much.
Marilyn Dalrymple - Still Life - Irises
A very well made still life, Marilyn. I like the color of the flower against
the browns of the rest of the objects. The black background is a nice touch.
Emily L. Ferguson - Fairhaven trawlers
I like the way this is composed. Most of the time you see these with more
contrast bt I like the muted tones here. It leads to an entirely different
mood which works well.
Pini Vollach - Muse de Vatican
This is nicely lighted but I'm not sure what the foreground object is doing
here. Since the statue is "resting" on this element it makes for a fun
juxtiposition but not much else.
Yoram Gelman - Rails in Oakland
The high contrast works here. The movement into the light is good as is the
inclusion of the people. A nice graphical representation of the scene.
Christopher Strevens - Tram Stop, Budapest Jan 2011
I like the dark mood, Christopher. The image is composed well and the people
work well in the photograph. A slight issue is the way the spires are cut
off but it doesn't really detract.
Mark Harris - Bodyscape
I want to make it clear that all of my models are properly compensated and
are active participants in the creation of the photographs. I am honored
that they are willing to allow me to make their photographs.
