CRITIQUE CLUB COMMENT
First impressions: The composition, colors, and focus are all quite good. Unfortunately, nothing impresses me about the photo. So why? There is no real "wow" factor which really helps in DPC voting because so many photos on DPC "wow" you it almost becomes expected. I think you did a great job photographically as far as picking the right shutter speed/apature settings to get a well exposed, crisp shot. The biggest reason I think it didn't score higher is that it has a sort of snapshot feel to it. In other words it appears as if no real effort went in to taking the shot. It is also taken from a perspective we are used to seeing signs at (i.e. shot from the stree looking up at the sign). It would help when shooting somewhat every day items to shoot them in some unique perspective we aren't used to seeing them at. In this example I might say shooting from a window on the side of the building and shooting down a bit on it to include the street MIGHT help. It is a bit of a shame it didn't score higher being that it certainly meets the challenge and it is well exposed and technically sound. |

Actually, this, and a series of bubbles up the side are the only modern signs on the building, and some of the original painted signs are still visible. Thanks for your comments. |
