http://www.pbase.com/shootin/postcard I thought everyone met the Mandate perfectly. Some stunning images that are both humorous and creative. My personal faves Bret's, Alan Browne and Jim's. I'm partial to birds, but it's the way the pic is exposed and the bright colors. Lots of detail and very sharp. The Blue and Gold Macaw wins it. I found Alan's work stunning. The colors are magnificent. Crisp detail. I know I'll be reprimanded for saying it, but I'd love to see this shot in black and white as well. The lines, tones shapes would be gorgeous! Jim's postcard is beautiful. I love the colors in the sky, and the dark mountain just seems to bring that out. To everyone: wonderful work! Sorry I didn't participate due to illness. Helen |

http://www.pbase.com/shootin/postcard Good work by all. Brett: Well done Macaw. Sharp, Bright colors. Plenty of space for script. Wliba: When I first saw it I was thinking Albany, NY., USA. hehe Very funny. Mark L: Memories of a bad vacation? Funny. Doug: Nice capture of the action and fun of the location. I would have deepened the sky a bit more to give it more dramantic look. Al: A sad commentary on the state of the community. I hope it is used for a fund raising to get that center back on track. Alan: Great shot of the high desert. Plenty of room for script. Paul: On my screen it appears to be a bit flat. The colors don't jump up off the page. Good angle of view and plenty of room for script. Justneeded a bit more color. IMHO Bowser: Nice colors. I like the way you have the script flowing along the bottom and the color match to the house. Jim K: Very nice mountain shot. If you could have waited for the sun to have set and deepened the color of the sky a bit more. I think the image would have been even better. Or even PS the sky a bit to inrich it some more. Again IMHO. Everyone did a great job with this and I have no real reason to snipe or complain about anyone else work. To all of you, keep up the great work and never quit. Draco Getting even isn't good enough. Doing better does. |

Great ocean front location house needs work. Plenty of local wildlife. Great Pic |

Wilba: When I first saw it I was thinking Albany, NY., USA. hehe Very funny. Thanks. I think it was this idea that inspired the challenge, rather than the other way around. Oh, and if you don't want to offend the locals, in Western Australia it's al-ba-nee (like album), rather than all-ba-nee (like albeit). |

I never was happy with the way the colors came out with that shot. Here's one I like a bit better taken with (are you sitting down?) the Totally Analog Fabulous EOS-1V. http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/82040466/original The Fabulous EOS-1V is hard to beat if you are willing to take the hours and hours to get a decent scan from it. Note to Ken, Hickey, and Rocha: I tried that pic in B&W and it looks like crap. Oh yeah, I liked Wilba's postcard the best. Alan's was nice as well, but it looks like a little too much magenta tint in the sky for my taste. |
