Odd indeed, or in your son's case quite normal

Just need to watch your WB as it's a tad orange.

Cheers.

 

[Dubn83]

Thanks mate, was thinking of what to do and he (Reuben 4) walked in! So grab camera and asked him to stand still-only got 2 useable pics out of the 5 I snapped. I mean come on he's 4 and I asked him to stand still, meaning do anything but to him

Hey David - Welcome to the 52

Certainly on theme and in on time as well, so you have beat me on many of my last years weeks

Look forward to seeing your next 52

 

[Pinkbikerbabe]

Hello and welcome to the 52 I agree with the above comment it does look a tad orange.

 

[minnnt]

Good start mate. It is a strange fashion these days...

 

[Dubn83]

Ok guys thanks I'll keep an eye on the WB.

 

[susiejb]

Definitely a miracle that he stood still...what is it with kids and photos....a fun start

 

[Allan.H]

Hi, Kids and animals eh who'd have them, WB as has already been said nicely composed though
welcome aboard

 

[mercurius]

Nicely on theme and a good start. Good luck for 2014!

H David & a belated welcome to the mad corner

On theme , nicely off centre , WB already mentioned...good start to your project mister

not a Vdub fan by any chance ??

 

[Dubn83]

not a Vdub fan by any chance ??

Thanks for the comment and yea I'm deffo a Vdub man

 

[Delta Skies]

Hits the odd theme although as has been said the white balance needs some adjustment on this one. My some more natural lighting would have improved although at this time of year that's not always the easiest to find.

 

[Dubn83]

well a bit late but heres my wk 1 linear/line pic


wk 1 'line' by DubdN83, on Flickr

dose it count as a 2 for 1 as I was "playing" when I made the "line" of dominos ???

 

[blondie606]

Hi David


another mono , almost abstract image that works well for me...took a few seconds to see what it was but I like it....focus on the centre dominoe I'm torn on....part of me wants to see the focus on the 1st then receding but it also works as is possibly crop the brighter sliver from the rhs ? maybe ??

 

[Dubn83]

I had the same thought but went for this one, altho the other pic is on my Flickr

Another one to agree. Crop the LHS and this would be a very strong image. Nice one.

 

[Phil-D]

Good image David I might have been tempted to give them a push from the left to see what the image looked like half way through the wave of falling dominoes

 

[posiview]

Another one to agree. Crop the LHS and this would be a very strong image. Nice one.

Another, another one

I do like it, tonight when you can see the DOF line.

Cheers.

 

[Sonriendo]

I rather like the focus being in the centre here - do agree about losing the left hand side though. The lighting works well here.

 

[Tango32]

Another one to agree. Crop the LHS and this would be a very strong image. Nice one.

yep must agree with this

 

[Dubn83]

Will have a go at editing the lhs out and leave it on my thread/flickr

 

[ivandobski]

Odd - Not sure about the wb personally but maybe getting the shot as if he was walking would have given it a bit of something extra?
Line - Nice, I'm a sucker for some dof stuff, the b&w works well and there's some nice textures on the table and dominoes. You could easily mess them around a bit and resubmit them as "play" if you end up stuck!

 

[MrNicholas]

A cracking DOF and tak sharp, excellent job!

 

[cowboy]

Agree about the brighter light but a good image.

 

[Dark Knight]

Real nice line there David, I too like the focus in the centre

 

[Allan.H]

Hi, nice focus in the middle it does work, a little crop would be good
sorry I can't add anything that hasn't already been said

 

[Dubn83]

Thanks guys, I will get round to doing that crop sumtime

 

[parhole4]

Like the shallow dof and love the lighting but agree with others about cropping a little of the left

 

[mercurius]

Nice concept - agree with comments already made about crop and focus.

 

[-Paul-]

Another one to agree. Crop the LHS and this would be a very strong image. Nice one.

I like the way you've focused on the middle domino. Both ends lead you to your point of focus Good idea well done

 

[gerryrys]

Universal agreement. The bright light on the left is distracting, otherwise a well composed image.

[Dubn83]

I like this pic too but will post the cropped version and the other shoot with focus on 1st domino aswell lata 2nite

 

[Dubn83]

this was my 1st pic, wasn't happy so did the other

[Pinkbikerbabe]

I am liking the crops nicely done.

 

[beckyboy1]

Like the crop of original works better

 

[Dubn83]

I'm happy with either of them really

As for the other pic, the crop has made me like it less-as the 1st domino needs to go 2mm or so to the right to be "in line"!

Hi David

Your odd pic made me chuckle, make the most of being able to shots of your son ours (16years) hides from the camera - I've even tried bribery to o avail!
I think I like your last crop pic of the dominoes - I do like your use of shallow depth of field
