Upon A Conjured Conjecture (NE0005)

Description:
Damn...that title took me forever to think up, my head hurts...and looking at it, I don't think it means what I thought it did, or set out to be. But whatever...it sounds cool, and I don't care anymore. :smile:

:smile:

So, continuing on, this ties in with my last few shots, this would be the arches you see in 'Desecration of solace'

And again, just like the Obelisk:
I see a simplistic beauty in this, If you don't, then this shot isn't for you.
If you are like me, and you do see, then... :heart:

:heart:

The symmetrical shapes are wonderful! And the title fits perfectly. I've missed your stuff DM, keep it coming! :dance:

I like the play of light and shadows. Very nice DM. :smile:

:nod:

the light certainly adds a lot.
Thank you Prosey

(question, I can never figure out if I'm supposed to put an 'e' in your nickname or not, and I've been alternating because of such :XP:

:XP:

, enlighten me?)

You're welcome.

...I don't have a preference. I've seen it spelled both ways, and I'm fine with either. :smile:

Nice lines in this. It really moves the eye around the photo nicely. A little more detail in the shadowed area would have been nice. It would look good in a modernist gallery.

Posted by thedarkermist at May 15, 2008, 5:42:29 AM [Parent]

What do you mean by more detail? a larger surrounding view?
And thank you as well :grin:

:grin:

Yea, a bit simplistic, but sometimes toning things down goes much further.
And its easy on the eyes :grin:

:grin:

Posted by xsteffiex at May 15, 2008, 12:05:35 PM [Parent]

I mean, being able to see into the shadows. We see the lines go into the shadows, but then they disappear. If you're shooting in raw you can use a little fill light to lighten the shadows just enough to see those lines. It's a nitpicky thing, but you did ask for crits... :sweat:

:sweat:

I agree easy on the eyes and I like the way it works.

Posted by thedarkermist at May 17, 2008, 10:59:21 PM [Parent]

But if we saw into shadows...wouldn't that mean we have nocturnal vision?
lol, I get what you mean now :nod:

:nod:

Sadly though, I haven't been shooting in raw format, and I probably should. But what I lack from doing so, I try to make up with my vast knowledge in photoshop, :shrug:

:shrug:

excelling at both, and photography would be great, but a step at a time, I'm still learning functions on the camera, and correct terms and techniques.

lol, I know I ask for crits, and I'm happy when I receive them :hug:

:hug:

Posted by xsteffiex at May 17, 2008, 11:09:14 PM [Parent]

I like crits, they help me see things differently, and to learn. Sometimes things I think are fantastic don't turn out to be so. That can be bruising, but it's all good! :nod:

:nod:

Shooting in raw just adds a couple of steps to the workflow once you know how it works.

Posted by thedarkermist at May 17, 2008, 11:59:56 PM [Parent]

Yea, even if I don't agree with the crit, I'll still listen to it, as its still knowledge and advice which is worth retaining, and it may be applied in a different senerio. Or perhaps It'll lead me to think else where and come to another conclusion.
Advice and crits are two things I take seriously, as they help improve, even if, like you said can be cruising, there still great.

Posted by xsteffiex at May 18, 2008, 12:08:43 AM [Parent]

yeah, I don't always agree with a crit either. And as you said, it may be applicable in another situation and it can lead you in another direction. I just value input as long as it's not just your work sucks, etc. That gets filed in the circular bin :laughing:

:laughing:
