Critique Group Challenge: Week 13, Nonsense Photo by Ricky Tims Click to view a larger image. Ricky says: In a whirlwind of a busy week I managed to shoot this while getting a few pots for landscaping while in Wichita Falls. I liked the variety of colors and shapes and perhaps it makes no sense to chop up the image and shift the colors - so, this is my nonsence submission. |
Photos of the Week - Week 12Critique Group Challenge: Week 12, Free For All Photo by Chris Maher Click to view a larger image Chris says: On Sunday I attended the World Guard International (WGI) Regional in Bethlehem PA. For the challenge, I decided to put some limits on myself that I couldn't do normally since I was not the official photographer for the event. My limits were to put my 30 fps camera in single shot mode, shoot only in B&W (since it is mirrorless I basically watched the show in B&W which was a cool experience), and use one prime lens - the 135 f/1.8. I caught this shot pretty early in the event and it turned out to be my favorite. I decided to bring it into Photoshop and add a background since the original had one person in the stands and I thought it was distracting. The gym was pretty dark and the B&W processing seemed to fit the venue well. My year word is Value selected, in part, to encourage me to do more black and white photography, so this was the perfect opportunity. This is Hempfile HS and their show had something to do with gold. |

Critique Group Challenge: Week 11, Zodiac Photo by Ricky Tims Click to view a larger image. Ricky says: I'm Pisces. And chose to do that. I only had one lure so I took two shots - and a shot of the distress wood in one of the rooms of the house - so there are three layers here to create the image. I enjoy seeing the possibilities in Topaz Studio 2, but rarely use full strength, and also tend to erase and blend one back in Photoshop. |
Photos of the Week - Week 10Critique Group Challenge: Week 10, Found Landscape Photo by Shannon Hiebert Click to view a larger image Shannon says: After much trial and error.....and lots of learning, I feel that this was the best image that looked the most 'believable' as of right now.....before I change my mind, again. I'm hoping this looks like the top of a mountain where there is buried treasure hidden in the cave. It's actually an upside-down decayed stump where the cat sometimes sleeps. I'm glad I remembered focus stacking for this, and am pleased that I was able to successfully remove the foliage in the background and replace it with a sky. I also removed a decent amount of cat hair. |
