You be the screener

Unread post by Scooterb »

I will post a selection of my pics I think should be submitted to the site railroad pics net. because they only allow 10 to be submitted everyday now. I would like you to give your honest opinion on these pics what is wrong with them.
1. bad crop
2.high sun
3. bad angel
4. backlit
5. shadows
6. soft
7. oversharp
8. overexposed
9. unlevel
10. not a chance
11.no problem, send it in.

Maybe suggestions on what needs to be corrected.

please refer to numbers by the pics for your comments.

I will post result on the submittels when I get them back from railroad pics net

1. probably over sharpened
2. maybe nic ya for foreground clutter with the object just to the right of the nose... great pic, like the contasting sky and light on the nose with most of the rest cloudy.
3. not sure if oversaturated is a category, but this one looks that way...
4. really good scott. excellent pic..i hope it gets in.
5. Might nic ya for sidelit. Even though it's a cool photo...where was this one taken?

Gotta tell ya, really like this batch overall.. The sharpening looks very realistic now and looks great. Keep up the good work!

1.Poor lighting (Backlit): The image is backlit or doesn't feature enough nose light on the subject

2.Poor Lighting (High Sun): The angle of the sunlight is too high, a common problem in the summer months of year on mid-day shots.

3.Undersharpened (Soft):
