E-3 Assorted Rainy Day shots... - PhotoCamel

Raist3d · 01-25-2008

It's been raining lately. So I have taken some rainy day shots. All shots are 100% out of the camera except the woman drinking coffee and the tree behind the water drops, which have been cropped, but nothing else has changed.

Enjoy (or not), critique as always, good or bad always welcome.

so many — say, “Oh, if only I had a Nikon or a Leica, I could make great
photographs.” That’s the dumbest thing I ever heard in my life. It’s
nothing but a matter of seeing, and thinking, and interest. That’s what
makes a good photograph.'

Nice selection of shots Raist. I really like the perspective on the pylon shot, and the interior B&W shot seems to tell a tale.

Thanks for the comments. I wondered about the B&W shot (indoors) composition a bit... but I like the angle of my friend as he's dressing back up.

Your photos tell a story. That's why I like them!

you should take out the power lines in the first photo, but if you do there won't be a photo..........just kidding

I like the B&W highway one. Very moody.

Dann, Normie and Zeenes, thanks for the comment. Of all of them my new teacher picked up the black and white with the guy as the best.

That doesn't surprise me. There are certain structural elements that come together with that shot (particularly the converging diagonals), as well as the inherent suspense and mystery that is also gained from it.

Really liked the highway shot...nice choice of shutter speed and exposure.
