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.
