Standing Water

Critique Style Requested: Standard

The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.

Description

Walking in the Cold and just looking around. Something different. Hopefully unique and fun. Saw this idea and really tried to capture that vibe. Always for fun and enjoying the walk and " What Do I See…"

Specific Feedback

I like the light and the contrast in the water against the table. Maybe a different crop. I do like the split in the table but this may work or not work. Could be Cloned out. Could go either way.

Technical Details

ISO 800 shutter 400 f18 Edit in Photoshop … Some burning and dodging. some contrast changes.

Very cool, Gill, For what it’s worth, I like the split. It adds to my curiosity about scale. What am I looking at? A sidewalk? No too perfect. A table saw? maybe.

What I especially like about the split is the way it separates the two halves by an actual line as well as depth of field. And the reflections in the standing water are wonderful.

First thought was “liquid metal alloy” from Terminator. Glad it’s just water,

The split is fine with me, Gill. I didn’t even see “table” when I looked at this image and was wondering what the surface was. I like that.

That’s great. Liquid Metal alloy. I love it. Thanks. It’s just looking around and see something different and hopefully interesting.

Thanks. Just looking and hoping to find a unique image. Thanks for showing interest.

Very cool! Fantastic surface tension here and wonderful tonalities. The crack works, with little clue what it might be. Good eye!!!

Thanks Diane. Just me walking and looking around.
