Without the symbol it's got nice composition and the shooting angle certainly grabs the attention! Puns-Horse Of A Different Color-Cooper.jpg: Wonderful. I love this shot. The choice of recolour, having the head on the major third and the offset framing within the frame all work to draw my eye in and grab my attention. Well done. I like this photo http://tonycooper.smugmug.com/photos...26_VCfu3-L.jpg , taken at the same stable, better. This horse was not as easy to color, though, so I whipped one off of the white one. (Not the same white horse as the one in the field) I'm humbled! Both of those are excellent photos. Did you just snap what was there or what? In particular how is this second shot lit? It looks as if you've got light from inside the stable especially on those bars. Puns-Straight From The Horses Mouth-Cooper.jpg: This did nothing for me I'm afraid. The bridle in the top left is distracting as is the diagonal crop (what's going on there?). There's just not any visual interest, nothing to pull me in. It's not really a diagonal crop. When I was shooting the white horse in the field, another horse had his muzzle under the lowest fence bar and was munching grass from the other side. He had his head twisted to do so. I couldn't think of a way, pictorially, to convey "the grass is greener on the other side", so I noticed the one blade sticking almost straight up. I did line it up a little in post. The halter, not the bridle, was included to make it clear it was a horse. With tighter cropping, I wasn't sure it would be recognizable. -- Tony Cooper - Orlando, Florida |
