[Barefoot and Natural]

Okay....I am excited about this challenge and I had 2 ideas for numbers.
Would love to hear thoughts about these possible entries!!

I'm liking #2 the best. I like the crop, angle and B&W.

I don't know, I'm leaning towards the crop in the first one. You know what it's a picture of so you don't need all of the information that the second one gives. Perhaps a reshoot however, so you can get everything in focus. A smaller aperature opening? I'd like to see what you come up with.:D dizzy

I agree with Elaine. I think it is balanced well and the noise gives it an ol' timey look... #3 appears too "empty" for my taste. I like number 1...but 2 is my fave.

I like the crop and lighting in #1, but I like the grain you have in #2. Perhaps you could add the grain to #1? I agree that #3 is too empty.

Thank you all for your feedback!!
#1 is actually very sharp, but the softness was added so I can try the grain on this shot.

#2 Doesn't really jump out as *numbers* to me, but more as *old fashion*

#3 Do you think a tighter crop on the numbers would be better, or just forget this one?
I immediatley thought of *lucky numbers* inside fortune cookies when I saw the challenge theme.


Thanks again ya'll......I will post the newest edits.

I like the idea for #3, but that shot is just not doing it for me. There are some fortune cookies that have the lucky #'s on one side and the fortune on the other. If you can find some of those, then you could probably make something of it. Great ideas!

I like what you came up with for an entry as opposed to the first shot you presented. This is nicely executed...well done! :D Dizzy
