Challenge: Obsolete (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Sony DSC-V1
Location: Sarnia, Ontario, Canada
Date: Jun 25, 2005
Aperture: F4.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 3 sec
Date Uploaded: Jun 25, 2005

An old, broken rocking chair which no longer rocks the way it used to - it can barely support anyone's weight anymore.

For the photo, I used crop, resize, auto colour balance, auto contrast, clarify, auto saturation, unsharp mask, convert to black and white, and added the border.

Thank you.

i would have liked more contrast.

Excellent composition but, I find it to be just a little too dark for my taste.

nice idea. I struggle a bit with the light though: the wall is very present and therefore the chair lacks a bit of contrast and the bottom right part gets a bit dark.

moemntarily obsolete. I get it. Nice shadows but I think a little too closely cropped.

very nice and simplistic..and it is old..but it is lacking something, something to help it from being over the line and into being boring (maybe a wider composition with a simple socket, bottom of a window, or part of a lamp in the corner showing, etc.)

6 for me

How is this at all obsolete? I like the picture itself, but not really fitting for this particular challenge <3

I like the single chair in the corner. The lighting is a little lacking - maybe have more directly on the cushions. Could use some more contrast but maybe that's just me.

I think it would look better if it were brightened up a bit.
