Re: Last Photographer Standing#2-Theme9-Black and White VOTING OPEN! LPS: 03 - Too cluttered. No central focal point to draw the eye too. 01 - Blurry 05 - Great idea, but the tire is too dark and the tread pattern isn't visible. It would have been more dramatic with the tread pattern...

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 LPS: 2 - Glare and unsharpe 6 - Glare from the flash on the coins 5 - Poor composition. The eye is drawn to the wallet and not the money. Favorites: 1 3 4

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 LPS: 2 - The image was improperly centered in the frame. You can see blankets or something behind the magazine. 4 - Too much glare on the bulbs. An offset flash from the camera and softer lighting would have worked better. 1 - Its a good picture, but...

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 LPS: 01 - My eye was drawn to the person not the sign. 07 - Nice idea, but the car distracts from the sign. Maybe waiting a few more seconds for the car to leave then snapping the picture. 02 - There are too many objects in the picture. I can't determine...

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Congratulations everyone. Great work!

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Missing I LOVE that avatar. Its too cute!

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 oh crud. Sorry BlueCurl... Its too late to edit, so here are the votes for my favs. I don't know what I was thinking. Gah! 3 2 5

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 # 6 - interesting picture, but there is too much glare from the over head light. # 7 - there's too much background clutter behind the cross. I love the idea of the image, but the stuff/leafs behind it detract from it. # 1 - The spires aren't straight. My...

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Good work everyone. This was a difficult challenge. LPS: 3. There's no central image. Its too random. Are we looking at the grass in front or the garbage behind? 2. Great idea, but its too busy. I can't figure out what is the central image. 9. The...

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Thanks BonaTaylor. I really do wish I could stay in, but life has gotten too hectic. I'll try to enter as non-LPS when I can, but for the next 4 weeks, I can't see it happening. I'll check the board and vote an critque though. You guys keep up the good work!

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Wow, BonaTaylor. I never would have guessed champagne. You did an amazing job with that pic. I thought it was bubbles caught in plastic. It had the shininess of plastic. Great work! Djrideout that was an amazing picture too. I bow to both of you. Great...

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Wow. Living End any one of those would have worked. What a great idea and what great photography!

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 I'm sorry to see you go Andreina. I hope you'll stay around for the non-lps part of the contest. Great work everyone. BonaTaylor will you please tell us how you took that photo. Its amazing!

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 Thanks BlueCurl. That is understandable. I appreciate you wading in here. I was enjoying seeing the different viewpoints, but I never meant to irritate anyone.

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 I don't want you to leave either. I was enjoying the debate with you over the thoughts of photography. I'm sorry if you took it any other way.

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 My point exactly. If the image doesn't relate to the theme then you really haven't done the whole challenge. You've just submitted a pretty picture. Without theme, there's no direction.

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 I'll give you that. It makes sense. I just believe someone, even thinking outside the box, should stay close enough to the subject matter to be fair to the others. Their image shouldn't be so obtuse that it can be confused with a different theme.

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 But does a landscape really fit the theme of an abstract? Or does a cloud really fit the theme of water? Its all semantics. If you want to think outside the box, what's the point in having themes? Everyone could just send in any picture they wanted each week.

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 I agree with you BonaTaylor. I think having this discussion was a wonderful idea. It allows everyone to get on the same page and state what they believe. Its nice to see it was done friendly and politely.

Re: Last Photographer Standing #2 But is it fair for someone whose taken the time and effort to come up with a photo that fits the subject to be eliminated by a picture that doesn't fit the theme? Yeah, I agree thinking outside the box is necessary, but you need to stay close enough to the...
