i don't get it. i don't see any rain or shadows, and there's usually not any big green trees in the desert. but i'm not going to judge your photo on a bad title, so i digress. the white circular thing at the bottom is distracting, and i really fail to see how this fits the challenge.

Where's the rain? where are the shadows?
06/20/2002 07:48:00 AM
I wish there were more contrast with the shadows here.
06/19/2002 12:51:00 PM
I don't get it. Were you going for the shadows between the leaves? Don't understand your title either. I must be having a bad day.
Photo 8 Creativity (see above)??? Shadows 2 total 5 (I bumped you up one, hoping that it must be me and this is better than I can figure out.)

Shadows are a part of this picture, yes. Getting closer and doing something close-up/abstract may have made them more prominent. I don't know for sure. Would it have been possible to crop the chair (?) out of the bottom?

where is the shadow?
06/18/2002 03:36:00 PM
A little more contrast is needed --can't see the shadows too well.and that round thing at the bottom should be cropped off.
06/18/2002 03:34:00 PM
I can't figure out how this relates to the challenge. I only see 1.5 unremarkable shadows/shaded areas on the underside of the limbs. In general, more focus, a little lighter and crop out whatever's sticking up from the bottom and you'd have a photo that would please me...but who's out there trying to please me anyway? : )

The mailbox (is that a mailbox) in the bottom of the frame is a distraction.
06/18/2002 11:30:00 AM
There are no shadows (being the subject) in this photo.
06/18/2002 11:08:00 AM
Sorry, I just can't see any 'creative use of shadows' in this photo.
06/18/2002 07:40:00 AM
I don't see how the title fits with this picture at all. You need to do more for this challenge than just taking a picture of a tree and saying the bottom of the leaf is a shadow. What is the round thing at the bottom of the picture? Its distracting and doesn't do anything for the photograph.
06/18/2002 05:30:00 AM
Does not fit theme too well. Overexposed and no reall center of interest.
06/17/2002 11:46:00 PM
I really don't get the title, but... It's a nice enough pic, but I'm not really sure how well it fits into the "Shadows" theme.
06/17/2002 08:15:00 PM
comment ?
06/17/2002 06:58:00 PM
I'm sorry, I don't see shadows, and I don't understand the title. Am I missing something in my monitor?
06/17/2002 02:39:00 PM
Doesn't really fit shadows.
06/17/2002 02:22:00 PM
where's the shadow?
06/17/2002 02:10:00 PM
Interesting photo that is well executed but absolutely fails to evoke "shadow" to me.
06/17/2002 02:05:00 PM
Horrible
06/17/2002 11:54:00 AM
What does this photograph have to do with 'shadows'?? Whatever that is a the bottom edge of the frame (trash can maybe?) probalby should have been cropped out.... I can't score much on this shot for creativity and the 'shadow' concept just isn't here... better luck next time...
06/17/2002 11:07:00 AM
Huh?
06/17/2002 10:52:00 AM
Sorry, but I'm really not seeing much of a tie to the challenge here. Aside from that, the white thing poking into the shot at the bottom is distracting and there's not much else to hold my interest.
06/17/2002 10:39:00 AM
shadows??
06/17/2002 09:07:00 AM
missing the sahdow

A pretty picture. I would have marked it higher if you had controled the exposure a bit more, and the chair back in the foreground doesn't add to the composition.
06/17/2002 08:41:00 AM
this should have been cropped higher, and maybe adjusted to make the a real shadow area.
06/17/2002 07:47:00 AM
Where are the shadows? It is a pretty photo but nothing in it is shadowy to me.
