Help me pick out photos for my class

WelshWitchPMD · #1 04-10-2005, 10:52 PM

Please!

I had to take 4 subjects for my photography class. One was a flag, which I already had a friend pick out a photo for me. One was people who are busy meaning that they are not aware of the camera. That was the most challenging but it was the most fun. I don’t want to post people’s pics on the net without their consent so I am going to have some coworkers help me pick those out. One was sunsets or sunrises. I took almost the same shots..
The last one was of buildings or part of a building. Those are the ones that I am going to post to see what you think I should submit. I only need to submit one of each category from my digital camera. These are all from my digital. On my film camera we had to shoot a roll of 24-exposure slide film. Each category was divided into 6 pics. I have no idea what is going to be on that film, either. At least I know what I got with my digital good or bad.

If you don’t mind checking them out and picking one out.

I already have the flag. I just need one of the building pics and one of the 3 sunset pics. I printed out some at CVS already but not all of them. They came out very clear. I was surprised. WARNING:
DO NOT GO TO WALGREENS FOR DIGITAL PRINTS. The paper that they use is garbage.

I posted the link with the password. Let me know if you have a problem getting in. The flag was just so we could use color, red, white and blue because everyone knows what it looks like I guess.

They're all very good! The sunset is beautiful.

Thank you. I am very afraid of what is going to be on that roll of film, however.

Sorry, dear, I was lame, and didn't see the link.
Those sunset pictures are breathtaking, and I enjoy the "hall, columns" pic. I would pick the sunset and flag pics.
Great Job!!!

I posted the link after.

You did not miss it. However, I already have the flag picked out. I think that I am going to pick the 3rd sunset pics. I just need for you to pick out a buliding pic for me. Please

As I said before, I choose the "Long Row of Columns" pic. I think it is the best.

Ahh Ok thank you!

WelshWitchPMD · #11 04-10-2005, 11:27 PM

Someone has IMed me that they like #9 the yellow armory tower.

amber · #12 04-10-2005, 11:36 PM

Meh, that one is ok, if it's the one I am counting. ( I am counting by pic, in order) My other fav building one is number five - the shadows are good. All the other building pics seem to easy, to me. (not that i am any kind of expert - NEVERTHELESS!!! I do have good taste...

)

amber · #13 04-10-2005, 11:46 PM

Ha, see? An "expert" has confirmed my choices! Rock.

I also dig this'n. The placing of the colums draws your eyes toward the door in the center. This one is good too, since the lines lead to the door in the center. Out of those two, I'd go for the second one.

OK, so in that 3rd sunset pic I used the rule of 3rds correctly. yeah. cause that was the one that I printed. I kind of like the 2 column with the door, too. It is part of a buliding and not the whole thing and the door is in the right spot. I took those pics with my SLR too but I am afraid that they did not come out.

Thanks for your help.

"Oh, the photographer said it, it must be right!"

*oops, sorry - I think my job is making me bitter*

good luck with your stuff.

Yes, I know that you did pick those out. I did say thank you.

It is nice to get a photographer's opinion because there are 'rules' to photography. Believe it or not.

You might just have a natural eye and there is nothing wrong with that.
