Ch37: A selection

[adrian_k]

I know it's a cliché, but this challenge was a real challenge for me.

I decided that macro/close-ups would be waaay to easy, but I didn't realise quite how hard it would be to translate patterns that I saw to a photograph.

I have one definate favourite and one maybe out of this bunch.

1) Empty benches.

2) Long wall

3) Trees by the Long Water - at the very end is Hampton Court Palace and this is by the man made 'pond' that's about 1km long (you can just make it out on the left)

4) The Ice House - late 17th Century

maybe a slightly tighter crop, a little more contrast. I dig it for the the emptiness while still working a pattern.

And BTW, its challenge 37, I edited your thread title for ya :thumb

I like your work but I like the bench shot the best. I wish I couldn't see the people in it though, they kindof distract from it.

I like this one. Try a little curves to give it some contrast, maybe crop a little tighter on the right and bottom. It has nice perspective and a good pattern.

[adrian_k]

wow, it wouldn't be my first choice. But as proven by the last challenge, I have 'odd' tastes that are not particularly populist.

Good feedback though, thanks.

I really like this one because it has 2 repeating patterns, horizontal and vertical, and the I like the perspective. I might experiment with adding contrast.

I cropped it, added contrast and sharpened it. It's attached (I hope).

[adrian_k]

That's my favourite too, although I like what you've done, I think you've gone too far.
I think I'll do some more work on this.

Adrian, I hadn't seen this thread before but I saw your submission in the challenge thread. I really like it, but I noticed the title you placed in the border says "TEES" where I expected "TREES". If it's not a typo then disregard this, but if it is then I thought I'd give you a heads up.

[adrian_k]

yeah, it's 'sposed to be 'Trees'.

I've been fiddling and it's down to these two. (I still prefer the wall).
