this is my first print for my photo class, we were looking at different filters and the amount of contrast. what do you guys think?

I think it's an odd shot. But you can't help but like it.

That rocks.

i like it all; DOF and texture

hobbes28 · Sep 21, 2004

I think your DOF is perfect. I have to agree with duck in saying that it's an odd shot but it works so well.

terri · Sep 21, 2004

I like your choice of perspective here and the DOF sets it off beautifully. It's a quirky little shot. I like it!

I have real trouble understanding stuff that's this complex.

Cormut · Sep 21, 2004

nice contrast and perspective. what color of filter did you use?

mistakendavis · Sep 21, 2004

i think this one was a 3

i dig it mr. davis, 'tis a bit of an oddball shot, but it works for me. I particularly like the fact that its quite centered, perhaps going against the rules of photography a bit, but it certainly captures one's attention.

the lighting is cool too, the barb is lighted on one side but dark on the other. nice work matie

Your photos never cease to amaze me, I think you're going to go places.

thanks for all the coments. about the framing of it, i wanted to work in thirds but at the same time make it different. that is why only thing in focus it on that top third line, plus when playing with the image it just didnt look right shifted to one side or the other. just kinda playing with the rule of thirds my own way. thanks again.

Very creative shot of a normal object. Good eye and technique.

It's alright to break "The Rule Of Thirds" but this one doesn't. To me, the point of focus (aesthetically and technically) begins at the top third.

Nice work.
