Challenge: Silence IV (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix A303
Location: Taken at work in Wayne, Pa
Date: Mar 1, 2004
Galleries: Interior, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Mar 1, 2004

I was at work, and seeing the way the light was shining through, and the fact that there wasnt a noise within ear's range, I thought of the challenge, which I was having difficulty thinking of something for this. So here it is.

Used basic edit tools just to make it black and white.

Very good example of how its possible to make good images out of simple things. Thoug this one lacks a litle sharpness

Nice shot, the bulky title has to go however...

I really like the way the light pattern on the floor forms echoes the triangle of floor, wall and wall. Does feel a touch tilted though.

Good idea. Quiet and lonely. Just a little out of focus and the light through the door causes overexposure in that area.

Dont rely on a photo title to try to get across your message.

I like the idea behind this... an empty house is definitley "silence". I wish the photo was slightly bigger though. 7.

focus is a bit soft but the image certainly meets the challenge

I thought of this idea, since I'm a Realtor. I think it's difficult to convey the feeling of a room in a photo. This one does okay and I really like the light coming in on the floor. This might have been more effective with some moving boxes or something...maybe a piece of furniture covered up?

Nice an good.

This a really great idea - changing the height at which the shot was taken may have improved the alignment of the verticals, which are diverging.

hmmm yeah allright, perhaps a higher contrast would help

Empty rooms always look so sad... :( Nice light.

Nice shot.....I like the feel of silence and being alone. The reflection on the florr is also nice. I would make the picture a bit bigger next time to show more detail.
