a bit of a focus problem here but if it were in focus it would be great

Cute - good focus, nice texture. I wish the shadows weren't there. Otherwise the paint is very pristine. Like the indention the yellow paint makes, drawing the red into it's hole. Think I understand your reasoning for the frame but that shows the paints to be off center, and for no real reason. With out the frame I probably wouldn't have noticed the cropping. For me this cost you a point. 8 PTL

The concept is well taken. Graphic bold simple images seem to be the way to rack up points here at DPC. So you are on the right track. I would have chosen a lighter colour blue. I am asking for the impossible for more swirly effect in the other colours besides red to bring visual motion/impact there too. But that would be another 100 shots later. I would be happy with one set or even no grey shadows on the white ( sorry for being so bloody picky over nothing ). This is a good image well on the way to becoming an excellent shot. Keep up the great work...7 bullwinkle

I really, really like the composition and colours here. I feel the lack of focus (or the lack of blur) ruins it.

Beautiful job!! Great composition, brillian colors, fluid motion. I like it very much.

This shot would definately been in my top 5 had it only been in focus. Still great, though.

a faster shutter would have been better, looks a bit blurred.
12/18/2002 02:32:20 PM
neat, but the focus is a little soft
12/18/2002 02:22:47 PM
cool. poor focus lets down what could have been an outstanding shot unfortunately....

I like this very much, although for itself the image is not recognized as "occupation".
Could also be a little sharper, but I guess you had a hard time getting it focused anyway.

very nice... maybe take 100 shots to get all of the paint drip lines perfectly straight up and down and parallel

Great idea, and well photographed!
12/17/2002 03:47:37 PM
THIS IS A TERRIFIC SHOT
12/17/2002 11:48:15 AM
Love this. Great idea! 10

Hey! Are you allowed to use paint for photos like this? The result is so beautiful, though... It just seems a bit out of focus. I do like the glisteny quality of the paint, along with the bleed of the blue. Very cool!
12/16/2002 04:22:27 PM
Neat shot........focus is too soft for me, but I do like this.
12/16/2002 03:35:45 PM
Great colors. Focus a bit off. JEM

That must be a fun job. The pic looks a bit out of focus though.
12/16/2002 02:47:00 PM
if this was in focus i think it look nice
12/16/2002 12:03:35 PM
Oooo! Pretty colors! Did you try it with a higher shuter speed? Might have looked cool with everything frozen maybe? (7)
