imo trying to hide the haze is a mistake. other people have pointed out it looks a little crushed. personally i like the subtly shifting tones of the haze. i think it comes of even better in the colour version from the blue wood smoke on muted greens. nice picture in any case

personally i think it could have been pulled a bit (hard to say) but the images being much more about the composition of generic elements and light i feel it is undesireable to coomplicate things with whatever logo is on the side of the truck

Jerm324 posted:I feel like you could say this about any type of landscape "genre" if said genre isn't your thing. this is true of course and i dont really care if anybody else likes the photos. as has been pointed out they are meant to be likeable. individually there are many fine photos there i think but when you look at them in aggregate the illusion is totaly dispelled for me. no one artist is distinct enough that you could tell who did what if you shuffled them around. or if you did a google image search for nice mountain landscape or leaves on water or snowy tree picture you could probably swap those in and out and not notice the difference. i think they are all hewing as close as they can to same set of ideal beautiful landscape photos as those that are churned into desktop wallpapers or come heavily watermarked by flickr dads with prosumer hardware. ive seen a lot of photos and ive seen a lot of (actual) landscapes (brag) but nothing in there inspires anything of the grandeur or sense of excitment and adventure of the real thing. like megabound said they remind me more of the dentists office, or the furniture in an airbnb, or a picturesque scene in a video game than a real place. these awards are never given to anybody trying something novel or innovative and as a result they are just a celebration of mediocrity. id like to reward people who have a vision that surprises you and pushes things forward. sure some of the artists are lugging their gear up a mountain side to get their shot but the power of what they see is not captured in their photos where they always stay on the paved trail.

its tired to say but its a real shame that the risk / reward is so skewed for a little bit of fence hopping down there

ive lost track of this conversation also but in general i think nurturing a sense of what your tools can do before you pick them up and use them will make you better and more efficient at doing so. an interesting comment made above regarding photography and the transformation from 3d to 2d (re bobmarleysghosts excellent photos). the idea of translation is essential to photography i think and being able to intellectually grapple with the transformation that occurs between reality and print before you put the viewfinder up to your eye is for me a big part of "the work" of photography

yeah thats right im almost out unfortunately but its pretty remarkable how chunky that film can be heres a crop from an underexposed shot at 100% i really enjoy the impressionistic quality of it though i dont think im personally deft enough to really make good use of that

thanks i appreciate that. personally im a little torn on the police tape - there are a few things that i like about them which (imo) is that they work well in the composition, are something a bit dynamic, and they fit in with the concept / theme in general. i think you are right though that maybe it is a bit much. its fortunate that they work on those levels but maybe a simpler more static scene would be better. idk i keep going back and forth the more i look at it with the cactus i m more certain that i like it as is. youre definitely right that it would pop more in colour (the colour is lovely i remember it clearly) its a nice scene but i think a more boring one. i kind of like the supposed subject being an organic foil to the rigid geometry of the scene. its kind of funny. i dont want to overthink it thank you again for the crit i didnt want to be dismissive in my response i thought about it pretty much all day before i wrote back and i think youve really guided me in a productive way
