Critiques

Hi Harjit,
I read your forum entry and somehow share your point of view. It's hard to receive any critics and even those received are most of time very laconic.
On the other hand it is very hard to build useful comments about a picture, at least with my poor experience.

So here i give it a try for you, i looked at your gallery and i picked this picture i found interesting. Many of yours are btw, but this one i could say something about.

First the frame you used is taking the eye off the main subject so i would definitly vote for either removing it or changing its color.

Then what i found very interesting about this picture is the black&white + red effect. I suppose this was obtained naturally, but it's something i tried to do as a post treatment on one of my pictures ones and i did not figure out how to do that. If you applied any post treatment on your picture to obtain this please let me know.

For fun i tried to push the reds, sharpen and change the framing, but the result isn't fantastic i'm afraid. I posted for workshop.

Very nice colors. Where does the glowing effect for the foreground come from ? Is it long pose + wind or an after effect ?

Salut Loic,

Tres chouette photo. Le vieux port rend tres bien comme ca (bien mieux que le souvenir que j'en ai en tout cas).

A propos des collages, je viens de decouvrir un logiciel gratuit, Autostich, qui donne selon moi de bien meilleurs resultats que photostich.
