Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Harsh Environments (Expert Editing)
Camera: Sony DSC-P41
Location: Boys room
Date: Dec 27, 2006
Aperture: F/2.8
ISO: 120
Shutter: 1/40 sec.
Date Uploaded: Dec 28, 2006

bright/contrast then added the effect chrome adjustng it a little. cropped& resized.

Ok, I know, that some may feel the effect takes from the "picture" quality. But I fell in love as soon as I used the effect. Which I had no clue what it did. So, with that said, this is actually my 2yr olds and my 11 yr old room the day after Christmas. Which fit the challenge for me. So here I am sticking my neck out to be chopped off. Oh well I love it.

Was there a point to the use of the processing ? Does it enhance the message you are trying to get across ? Just seems to make it harder to work out that this is a shot of a messy room

This is brilllliant!
sort of like the view if you are Schwartzenegger's Preditor, looking for someone to punish. My mother has a four letter word for this; KIDS!

Well I have sort of mixed feelings about this image. On one hand, I like the "drawing like" look of the image, like it was drawn with a pencil. On the other hand, it´s WAY too busy for my taste and my eyes have a hard time staying anywhere for more than a second. I like the style but think it would be better suited to something simpler, like a human face or something. I know, not what the challenge is about, I am simply encouraging you to try the same editing again if there is for instance an expert editing portrait challenge. Ended up voting 5.

Wow. Glad i'm not cleaning that up, although mines not much better come to think of it.

Not a fan of the photoshop filter though.

Awesome effect! What a typical child's room especially after the holidays! You really captured the after-math of the holidays in this shot!

Looks like my nephews' room! I like the pencil-like quality - emphasizes the clutter.

If a child really lived in there, I think CPS would be involved

But, the B&W treatment just doesn't work, sorry

Not only is it too busy, it's way overprocessed...

Very striking...yeeeers...I tend to identify with this image. But well done on the processing. Loads of interest.

I'm not sure why you made it look ...??? Silver, it looks silver to me.

I don't care for the processing you chose for this image. I can barely tell what I am looking at. This makes me think more of fire damage than a boy's messy room. (I'm not trying to be mean.)

I think this would have been a terrific entry before the radical post-processing. IMO it's way overdone.

I hope this isn't your house. Call for a dumptruck. (6)

not really a fan of the edit as it's hard to make out anything at all
