Since I use mostly automatic settings except for the flash, it seems like that camera reads light slightly differently and usually one of the photos will be better than another for some mysterious reason.PaMdorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14673157255405327125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17862494.post-1143075055431194742006-03-22T19:50:00.000-05:002006-03-22T19:50:00.000-05:00Hi Joanne, I am wondering if the problem is that y...Hi Joanne, I am wondering if the problem is that you don't seem to have a focal point with this peice. it is an all over pattern that works if you want an all over pattern. if you look at your peice below done in blue, it is a simpler design with a shape that draws your eye, becoming more interesting to look at. In the circle piece your eye is going all over but it is evenly textured so you don't have the contrast of an area where your eye is drawn too and stays for a bit. Maybe a calm area, or where the scale drastically changes. try cropping the image on your computer and looking at a smaller area and see how you feel about it.<BR/><BR/> You know there are things that are working, contrast in value/color, contrast in size of patterning. It is so hard when you keep looking at a peice and are not quite sure why it doesn't feel right. sometimes turning a piece upside down can also give clues. good luck.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06858569382699600146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17862494.post-1143063944063640252006-03-22T16:45:00.000-05:002006-03-22T16:45:00.000-05:00Yep, there's not a huge contrast between the backg...Yep, there's not a huge contrast between the background and the strips, but there's some. I kind of liked that striped border you had on it in the last pic (the background of the planetary quilt pic).Deb Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03322863748665701618noreply@blogger.com
