Photograph Information Photographer's Comments
Challenge: Strength (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Canon PowerShot G5
Location: Geneve, Switzerland
Date: Apr 12, 2004
Aperture: 4.0
ISO: 50
Shutter: 250
Date Uploaded: Apr 13, 2004

 Walking in Geneve downtown park. In appearence this has nothing to do with Strength. But actually in my mind it did. It's the total lack of strength in this (almost) still picture that inspired me. To move this toys it'll need children strength. (tech: crop, monochrome, contrast and light adjustments, border)

What a fun shot. The tones are awesome here. I really want to buy one of those for my girls. They would love it. Very well shot!

What an absolutely charming (and somewhat absurd) image. Such fun! Lighting is great and your choice to go black and white is just right. It's nice to see someone crop to non-standard ratios. I often do (not that you'd notice from my few DPC entries) but I notice few tend to think of it. Works well here. Wonderful image!

Those look like fun. The light could have been better.

good use of repeating elements and the tight crop make for an interesting image.

This is good, but I find it just a little too tightly cropped!

The horse lacks detail to make them really interesting

Where did you take this photo? It's great. I haven't seen any thing like this. Great focus, color choic, and subject. 10

IMO: The light seems to be from the wrong side. Neat subject

Cute carts, looks like fun. This is a good example for the challenge. I would suggested keeping watch for things like water drains right in the front of your shot. It's a distraction and people do notice. The drain becomes a focal point for the viewers eye and takes away from the charm of the carts. Also the front legs of the pony are gone. This would of helped to complete the scene. I hope these comments are helpful they are not meant with a mean spirit.

I think a more appropriate title would be "Horse Power Not Included" :)
