Fortnightly competition #3 Lunch Break

Thank you to everyone for entering – I was rather worried for a while I’d killed the competition by setting an uninspiring subject, but at least a few more people entered at the last minute. This is the first time I have judged a photo competition and don’t really feel qualified:oops:, but here g...

Fortnightly competition #3 Lunch Break

Thanks for the judging Rob, and congrats to Mike - a wonderfully crisp image. As for my pic - yes, lighting was a problem, affecting not only how the food was lit but also the aperture I could set controlling DoF. Couldn't use the onboard flash as the 16-45 creates a shadow @ 16 - also flash may ...

Fortnightly competition #3 Lunch Break

I think you're right the waiter out of focus is much better. Do you mess about with levels etc. in post processing? I'm not sure on baord flash would have helped. Mike

Fortnightly competition #3 Lunch Break

The idea of the long exposure was to try and show the girls eating their lunch frantically, so they could get back to the 'shopping', the back-ground was to show the other people eating more slowly, with less of a rush to get back to the shops. ?

Fortnightly competition #3 Lunch Break

I totally agree about not using flash on Dr. Mhuni's shot - it would have ruined it. I second mikew's comments about fiddling with levels or curves. I've tried it recently on a couple of photos and been amazed at the difference it can make. Galoot, now I see what you were trying to do - sorry for...

Fortnightly competition #3 Comments - Lunch Break

Flipping heck if that's Malo's lunch break - Black Label! Dr Mhuni, I think the sharpness of the image is a combination of what seems to be a remarkably good lens, very careful focussing (no focus and recompose for me) but still using the AF with a selective point chosen, a heavy tripod, 3 second...

Weekly competition #73 - Glass

Yes, I wanted to add a new image, and the only way I could do that was to delete it. Is that not allowed? I am afraid that one of the few 'rules' for the competition is that entries should not be altered or substituted. Perhaps you could slip your original entry back in and submit your VW version...
