Ok guys this is my second shot at this POTM

Nexxo · 9th Sep 2007, 11:46

Nice. I like the organic look of the wiring. Good colour contrast between the blue sky and rusty box too.

ComputerKing · 9th Sep 2007, 13:36

WOW I like the Cables and the sky! they mixed together very nice! Also that Crap box, Kinda I like same what Nexxo said in English

haha.

But really How the hell you guys take this photos! the camera look so nice! I mean the sky is dark and the voltage thing is lighter this is amazing really! This with photoshop for sure.. But I don't know how to do it.

Yeah Also I have 1 important Question.. how do you do that frame! or the general frames that guys do in POTM! I wish If I know how.. Thanks

I like this one more than nearly everything I've seen in POTM for a while! Good work!

Buzzons · 9th Sep 2007, 16:37

Tis really cool :-) Must find me a subject for POTM this time around

Thanks

CK: i only did some minor editing on this photo, added some contrast and saturated the picture just a little bit. The editing was done with Paint Shop Pro 8, i find it much easier to use than photoshop, and the framing is very easy to make there

I really like this. The saturation was a great touch and the whole image feels...well, historic. Which is fitting, being as the rusty box. It feels almost like looking at a working piece of a bygone era.

thanks DD

your comments are really helpful. being an amateur photographer, sometimes i take a pic, that many people like but can't really explain why. comments like yours really help me to understand better what makes a certain shot likeable.

Glad I could help!

I see a lot of "I like this," but not many people giving why or how aside from the most technical term. So hopefully I can provide some balance to that, because I frankly suck at the technicals.
