| Sean's Pick - score and comments 'Brisbane River 1' Great submission, I said Landscape and I didn't mean that was the format of the images, all stitched together - nice work mate. This shot has no evidence of the stitching and has also great composition. It sort of sums up the busy city life with the closing of the day also captured to the left of frame. The luminescence of the sunset and city lights in the water show off your talent well. I also am keen on the overpass featured central which emphasises the depth to the 3Dish. Great shot to have on the wall. Other image notes: 1) From William Jolly – your exposure is off and perhaps focus also, nice job with the levitation. 2) Skyline Ridge – Not a bad operational shot of the topography – I read it will but not that exciting. 3) Brisbane River 2 - Can see where you were heading with this - similar composition but had some trouble with the light stitching, Matt Karma once told me if you shoot in manual you don't get that problemo. 4) Brisbane CBD2 – my second pick, love the warm glow of the red walls in the centre of frame and use of the bridge which takes my eye two it. Let down with the lens shadow to right of frame, a longer exposure would have given it more punch. |
| Martin's Pick - score and comments Scout Hat Island The composition is everything in this shot. The rule of thirds has proven correct again. I can tell that you would have bracketed this shot to get the right exposure and clarity shooting toward the sun. Real nice and would print up well with a little darkroom antics. Top notch straight out of the camera. Other images- Aussie Breakfast: Great capture with a long lens and open aperture? May have been improved with higher ISO and reduced aperture. Bridge It 2: Nice full frame is comfy on the eye. Maybe more foreground vs background action would have helped me like it more. Rainforest walk: I dont really get a feeling of depth here that makes me want to wander down the creek bed. I trust you were in naturist mode when this was taken. Waterfall: Nearly chose this one for the untouched angle. Correct shutter and good composition..... Not a fan of the light though. I probably would have done some colours and contrast. Like it. |
