ParticipantYeah, Zero I saw that that’d expired; sorry about that!
That would be great, Kestrana; I’ll need to put the links together for you first; expect a PM soon.
//the image I’m choosing that has silhouettes is a completely intentional use of negative space to define the image. Ran it by cd and she’s good with it. It’s still that damned third shot I’m lacking–I hate that I’ve waited for the last possible minute!

ParticipantWith silhouettes my thought is, a shadow is black.
Shadows aren’t really black (they tend to be rather blue in direct sunlight), black is just what happens when you exceed the dynamic range of your camera’s low end 🙂

ParticipantAt dentist (again) and just read my last post. I was trying to be funny. I hope y’all read it that way.

ParticipantI actually laughed out loud at it.

Eh. Looks like I’ll have three again this week, unless something changes. I’d rather post two good ones than three crummy ones.

I like my third only for the humor and the brand. But it will do, for those reasons, I suppose. The other two I do really like.
I have no b’s to post. I like two of them, but I’ll save them for another viewing in another contest. They’d be in this contest, too, if they weren’t too close to one I’m going to use.
Thanks Kestrana for OBOing me!
//now just biding my time ’til the interview, 80 minutes away. Wish me luck–I could use the promotion [read that: I need to make more than I currently do].

Participant2 shots of the same subject for tonight. Could someone please venture an opinion which is better?
For various reasons I can’t make up my mind…1. http://www.flickr.com/photos/discover_uranus/5533353176/in/photostream/

I prefer to do three, ’cause I can – I just didn’t have anything I was really happy with. One shot this week is brand new as of the weekend, the other is from a set I did a while back – I’d intended to use a different shot but I’d already used it. Turns out I think the one I’m using works better in context anyway. I’ve got a ‘b’ from this week’s shoot – maybe I’ll post it later. It’s too similar to the one I’m using to post as well.
Good luck! I know the feeling. Sometimes I wish I could get a second job, or better, make my photography work for me 😛
Sorry I couldn’t promise to OBO. 5pm can be kinda hectic here at times, and I’m not always sure I’ll be able to post my own….
Uranus – I like your #1 shot much better. It feels sharper, and ‘feels’ blacker, even though it isn’t technically.

ParticipantThanks olavf . Beer for you if it hits the top 10.
March 16, 2011 at 11:14 pm #38780olavf
ParticipantHeh. No worries Uranus. I’ll only hold you to that if one of mine don’t 😉
March 16, 2011 at 11:20 pm #38781soosh
ParticipantI like the first one, too.
Anybody want to throw an opinion at which of these two should be included?
ice on car window:
or
ravens on snow:
March 16, 2011 at 11:24 pm #38782olavf
ParticipantThe ice is more grayscale to me soosh? I like ’em both, but were it me I’d probably go for the ravens for that reason.
March 16, 2011 at 11:25 pm #38783lokisbong
ParticipantYeah the ravens grab my attention more when I think about it. Not to say the frost picture isn’t way cool looking.
March 16, 2011 at 11:40 pm #38784orionid
ParticipantWhat they said.
