First blog. First ever post to a blog. Eileen LEAPS into the technology of the 90s...

Shot with a Pentax K1000 on Ilford. No software involved...that technology thing again.

What does it need?

  1. Maybe just a tiny bit of breathing room on the sides, but otherwise solid as far as I'm concerned. Nice mood captured here. Is this a new shot?

    Now that I'm looking a bit longer and squinting and such, I wonder if the fog could be moved a bit further off center to get the composition moving just a little bit.

    The swirls in the tops of the chairs play really well with the fog - perhaps this could have been exploited a bit more?

    All nitpicking, really. Nice shot.

  2. ahhh nit picking.

    so.
    I Love it.
    it's got everything.

    the rust/decay imperfections on the chairs the position of them,the slightly off horizon.

    now this might sound weird, but with fog pictures I really like to see some contrast...
    for is not really contrasty I know..... but there's a delicate balance and when it is achieved....it's magic.
    it's close.almost there.
    or my screen is off.........

  4. It needs a frame.

    It is very tight on the subject, so it needs something to anchor it to the world, otherwise it feels out of place or squeezed in.

  5. i don't think it needs anything.

  6. The bottom of the frame I think is the issue for me. It feels off kilter but if I could see the feet of the front chair (or at least where they're lost in the grass) that would give the viewer a place to stand.

    Did you crop this image?
