| Member No. | Image Title | Judge's Notes | Score | 1st, 2nd, 3rd |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 51 | Al Fresco | Good use of composition with diagonal drawing in the eye, lighting works very well in B+W. Edge darkeningf and vigetting is complementray. Good technique | 20 | 1 |
| 29 | Spare tyres | I like the way the image is central and fills the frame. Good use of repeating patterns . Sky is a little harsh - may work well as a white sky? | 18 | 2 |
| 62 | He died of junkitis | I like the way the image moves from light to dark and has the skeleton framed by the window. Good sense of modern junk.. | 18 | 3 |
| 23 | Humber | Good use of depth of field. I think cropping the top slightly would help to control the way in which the image is seen by the reader | 17 | |
| 23 | Junk reflections | Interesting close up/still life. Good control of reflctions . Think more background would allow the shape to be experienced better by the viwer, and it is a little static - trying to create some dynamic using more space around the objects may help. | 17 | |
| 51 | Totally (not) Nuts | Good close up detail. Compostionally the 2 long bolts seem to be fighting the image a little, so re thinking the compostion would work well as they could be contrasted nicely against the jumble of the background. Possibly edge darkening to move the eye away from the edges would be a good plan too. | 17 | |
| 13 | Wiry Post | Simple form and nicely seen. May need a little more context as it fills the frame a littl too heavily. | 17 | |
| 62 | I think there's one up there! | Interesting complex repeating patterns. Image seems to be in 2 halves and I think cropping out the top and leaving the bottom section would focus the eye | 16 | |
| 29 | Not a light bulb moment | Nice details in this image. I think that making the image darker and with more contrast would help hold the viewers attention | 16 | |
| 37 | Keys to the fairy kingdom | Good DOF. Central composition works. But perhaps getting closer to the detail would make the image pop more. Making the blacks blacker may help as well | 16 | |
| 16 | Seen Better Days | Good close up compostion - less is always more. Think the lighting is too contrasty though and there is extraneious distracting detail at bottom of image. | 16 | |
| 37 | Desert dojo | Good DOF.. Main subjects is very large in frame and may need more context to pull in the eye. Working on how to lead the eye through the image would be a useful plan. | 16 | |
| 13 | Flotsam | Here I feel that that attention to composition of the shape and form would be helpful. Cropping out the left will focus attention on the rope and barnacles. | 15 | |
| 16 | Redundant | Need to separate foreground and background more - perhaps play wth the wall texture and the filling station texture? Flattish image and probably needs different ligting, or to stand back and create more context. | 15 | |
| 10 | Rust Bucket | In terms of composition controlling the journey the eye takes through the image needs to be considered. This central composition and lack the lack between background and foreground makes it a challenge. Also less may be more here and I would suggest going for detail rather for the whole shot. | 14 | |
| 10 | ship wreck remains | Quite a flat image tonally. Perhaps edge darkening and raising the clarity would move the tones apart a little more. | 14 |
