The take:

Art Faul - It’s an Audi, not a BMW, so no wonder Chris didn’t like it.

Peeter Vissak - I greatly appreciate getting a little background when looking at work of an actual place. What seems to be missing in so much of today’s photography is any idea of where or what it is of. It looks like the kind of location where access is somewhat restricted and thus the angles are not what we would prefer. It might have looked incredible if shot from a lower angle, but then... we wouldn’t be able to see the chapel.

Lea Murchy - This is a clever composition and appears to be a throwback to an earlier period in photography even though it is made with an iPhone. Nice effects are visible and giving the image a 1880’s style removes it from the cheap ‘grab' look of most iPhone images.  

Joe Palcewski - There are no notes to guide me, but based only on what I can see, it looks like a sad woman who is perhaps dreaming of a future event. To me it looks like a Mona Lisa style shot as the woman’s lips are pressed together so one cannot tell her true intent.

Yoram - The photographer has captured a cloud of fog passing along the surface of the mountain and while the mountain may be yellow, it is the fog which I find attractive.

Dan Mitchell - This image looks like a snapshot from a phone camera and not an image which is carefully composed to include the stones along the bottom of the shot. Perhaps this is one of the drawbacks of the phone camera - no zoom lens. I feel like the image would benefit from including the pond edge if the camera had been held to make this a vertical shot.

Bob McCulloch - Cabin fever or not, this image displays the shortcomings of a phone camera with its slight curvature of the distant horizon, showing that it too might have looked better as a vertical image.

Randy Little - It looks like the bamboo was shot in front of a lightbox so it has that soft-edge ‘look.’ I see there is a nice big white space for adding type, so it can be used elsewhere.

To participate in this activity find instructions at: http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery-sub.html

Send your contributions early and anything you can do to prepare the photographs so they do not require additional adjustment would be much appreciated. Especially keeping them near 1000 pix in longest dimension and 200Kb in maximum size. Large images that run off the edges of average monitors are a pain. Larger is not always better!

Please take an extra minute to abide by this request but if you have doubts about how to prepare images just send them anyway and the capable gallery staff will adjust them for exhibition.

Did you know you could have a series exhibition? Check out current installation at: http://people.rit.edu/andpph/gallery-10/
