Zuiks;


Just after I published the site, another entry arrived. I added it right
away.

It's another nice one. In fact I'll add it to my list of faves: 22, 23,
24: the bottom row.

The taker has asked for critique, so I'll say this:

*I like the photo a lot.  The stark, contrasting red and green really
grab my eye. And the hanging blankets sorta give me a feeling of motion
- I feel like I can see them swaying in the wind. Though some will
disagree for sure, I even like the placement of the clothes line.  Yes,
it's right thru the middle of the picture, but it cuts the barn wall at
just the right place for me.

* As for # 22, the folks in the rain: The color saturation is great, and
the selective focus on the father and son (assumption) pulls my eye
right to them and holds it there. I love the expressions on the 2 faces
too.  And the fact that it's hand held with an IS-3 + B300 at 1/60 is
even more impressive. Nice job.

* # 23 is a perfectly whimsical use of the Zuiko 16mm full-frame (not
semi) fisheye. What a find in that subject.

* I very much like many other entries as well.  I am seriously impressed
with the quality of work up there - let's challenge those Contax users
to a shootout! :>)


Great job everyone.  And, in order to minimize list clutter, let me
thank everyone now for kudos that have come in and those that may come
in in the future.  And don't forget, I am open to suggestions.

Now, I gotta go figure out how I'm going to do my (small) portion of
Zuiko lens testing.


George
