Demestic Dispute

Where to start? First, while I'm sure the blur is intentional, it does nothing for me. Whatever detail isn't removed by the motion blur is further obscured by the swath of chroma noise (all the blue stuff that is randomly distributed everywhere) that is this image's most dominant feature. Finally...demestic? You should look into installing the Firefox 2.0 web browser. Its built in spell checker will never leave you spelling dOmestic wrong again!

So, in summary, I'm giving you a 1. Feel free to PM me (even during voting, I don't really care) and I'll gladly give you some pointers to remedy these mistakes for next time!

Good stuff... the beauty of still photography for street/snow is unless you're doing a sequence, as long as it looks good in the air, you've got yourself a perfect shot. A good example is my profile pic. Being a shitty urban rider (give me powder over park any day), I ate it shortly after the photo was taken.

Good one. I was trying to get shots through the thick, distorted, scratched aquarium glass today. Looks like takin a swim is the better way to get the shot!

Holy over-processed! Shadow/highlight (if you used CS2) is your friend; don't abuse your friends! I'm guessing the foreground was next to black at first. You have to be wary when trying to pull details out of the shadows like this, often you will find, as you have, alot of unsightly noise. Also, you've killed the contrast in the mountains. Otherwise, this is a well composed and very scenic photo. Don't worry too much, post processing is something that comes with experience. 6 months ago I was doing this same thing to my photos. It'll come.

An angry child pulling a secret service move on a pile of presents. Best of '06? I'm sure this holds sentimental value to you, but to me, this is no different than the 1000s of photos of my cat, dog, sister or friends that I took last year. No one but me and them have any interest.

You went way overboard on the processing here. This has been pushed well past the believable limits of an HDR-style photo. 2.

Your score is a reflection of your image size here. This would probably end up low-5s otherwise, but voters are going to hammer unreasonably small images, every time. If you aren't sure how to resize images to take full advantage of the rules, PM me or search the forums.

Better luck next time!
