The PhotoForum members' gallery/exhibit space was updated MAY 14,
2011. Authors with work now on display at:
http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery.html include:
Dan Mitchell - Country Cottage
Looks rather more like a driveway to a house than a cottage. The
wide angle perspective distortion is kinda interesting.
Herschel Mair - Dragon-sword lady in Persian Souq
Should have taken out the person behind her, and the pop on the sword
is too bright. Also she needs more goth makeup.
Pini Vollach - PhotoMontage
Interesting, but it's too diffuse, the layers are too close in
brightness, they don't mesh as well as some other pair might. And,
of course, it's hard to figure out what I'm supposed to be looking at.
Katharina Kitaeva - The Tragedy
this feels to me like the bg was plugged in, or the person dropped in
front of it, there's no real despair in his body or face. The hands
have a very distinct feeling of being put there in child-ish prayer
rather than thought or grief.
John Palcewski - Amor Patris
so many posed shots this week. I feel like there's no genuine
emotion coming towards me yet. So it's a guy and a kid, but what's
going on that shows their connection?
Sherie Taylor - The Fountain
Pool yes, fountain, no. This is, however, one of those situations
where the unusual thing to do is shoot from the exact middle of the
pool and center all the rest of the stuff exactly too. It would have
been even better if the cloud had cooperated as well!
Don Roberts - Floral Tribute
Plan your bokeh and then you don't have to use a blur filter! I'd
move the zinnia away from that constricting corner, thus minimizing
the competition from the red cloth below.
Christopher Strevens - The road
I appreciate your continuing effort to photograph that which is near.
There's a lot to show among the things you live around. In this case
the wall on the left is really impossible to reconcile with the
tracks and I think I would have tried my darndest to get the wall out
of the photo to begin with.
Thanks to all, especially Andy, and I'm looking forward to next week.
Submit now if you haven't yet.
