THEMES; Motion & Opposites.
Here are their photos for this week.

Motion
Title: Motion
Inspiration: I took this on a ride in Denmark during the summer, I had I different picture but I was looking through my photos and this one stuck out.

The Opposites Old & New
Title: Old & New
Inspiration: I took this in the Alhambra,Granda last month, an old moorish city, I like the way they modern city lies in the background of the ancient abrabic/moorish arcitecture(sp), I know its not too clear, but this particular shot shows the old designs the best :P.

CARARAWR// FAILED TO SEND IN EITHER PHOTO AND SO HAS BEEN ELIMINATED.

GypsyGoth//
Motion
Title: Dancing Music
Inspiration: While I was doing shots for the weather task I noticed how the camera pictured passing cars in the dim evening as steaks of lights across the photo. So I made sure it wasn't too bright and I moved my ipod in front of the camera. Anyway it worked far better than I could have hoped.

The Opposites High & Low
Title: Perspective
Inspiration: Unlike the last pic, this only took a couple of shots. I wanted to take an interesting photo from the ground to the ceiling. I feel it works.

Motion
Title: Juggling
Inspiration: I was at Covent Garden and these brilliant street performers were on. Rocking forwards and backwards balancing on a unicycle whilst jugging is a pretty talented feat. Alot of motion in this photo.

The Opposites Hot & Cold
Title: Hot & Cold
Inspiration: This was the only thing I could think of and I think I captured the theme pretty well with the hot and cold taps..

Gypsy Goths are my favourtites this week <3

Sam! 27-11-2009 05:27 PM

I'll post my comments later :)

Motion - GypsyGoth
The opposites - Big and Small with Patrick

Sticks 27-11-2009 06:00 PM

Ok, Simon Cowell time

bronaaaaa

Motion
Sorry - Not quite. It may be in motion but the shot here failed to capture that and it still looked pretty static to me.

Old & New
I'm afraid the expression that comes to mind is "Straining at a gnat". The buildings through the arch do not say to me new. On the technical front, you are more exposed to the city and not the foreground. I would have forced a flash to light up more of the foreground.

CARARAWR
Failed to send in any photos and is eliminated.


GypsyGoth

Motion
Is this meant to be a Gostbusters version of a musical note. One can see the motion lines, but the clear semi quaver shatters the illusion.

High and Low
I do not feel this works, even though it is done in black and white - sorry

Nate

Motion
Well they are in motion, but this is effectively freeze framed. Typical motion shots have motion blur.

Hot & Cold
This is quite clever, plus the use of black and white does help. Nicely in focus.

Patrick

Motion
Does not speak to me of motion that much as this seems like a freeze-frame effect, plus the focus is not that great. Was it taken on a camera phone?

Big & Small
Soft focus and also there is not sufficient contrast for me between the two hands.

Raph 27-11-2009 06:11 PM

Nate's 'Hot and Cold' is excellent (:

Patrick 27-11-2009 07:10 PM

It looks like it's still, the photo is susposed to show motion not be an object that moves but looks still. :thumbs:

King Gizzard 27-11-2009 07:14 PM

I think mine is still motion tbh.

Sam! 27-11-2009 07:19 PM

My Comments

Brona
- It doesn't look as if it's moving but I still like the perspective of the photo.
- I like the idea Brona but like you said it's hard to see the new part of the photo.

GypsyGoth
- Probably the only one that shows proper movement and I do like the photo Claudia.
- I love this photo, it doesn't literally show high and low but still gets it across.

Nate
- I personally love this photo but doesn't really show movement, nice photo though.
- I like the idea but I think the photo could overall be a bit better, good though.

Patrick
- Like Brona's, the wheel doesn't seem to actually be moving and the photo isn't the best of quality. I like the idea though.
- To me the hands look practically the same size so I don't think the theme has been portrayed very well. Again I like the
idea but yeh something moving as slow as that won't show motion in a photo.

It's just two quavers btw :P

Sorry I'm a music student/nerd haha hard not to pick at those things.

GypsyGoth 27-11-2009 07:52 PM

Thank you Brona :hug:

Cheers for the comments, judges.

I'll try and do better next week Judge Sticks :D

And thank you Judge Sam for the kind words :thumbs:

Sticks 28-11-2009 03:09 PM

What was the final result?

Patrick 28-11-2009 03:17 PM

Whos left the competion?

Shaun 28-11-2009 03:27 PM

Brona:
Motion: I have to disagree with Sticks + Sam! here - the blurs around the top of the main 'car' in the shot, and the blurs of the lights on its side, clearly indicate it's in motion. I have a similar photo of a fairground ride which was rather lovely, so all in all - this gets a big thumbs up from me.

Opposites: This, however, is where I have to agree with Sticks - the buildings between the arch aren't particularly striking me as 'new'. I see what you tried to do, and it was a creative effort, but I'm afraid it doesn't quite work.

GypsyGoth:
Motion: Well I can see the reasoning behind the shot, but for me this doesn't make a particularly nice photo. It does the job but without any flair.

Opposites: I really don't get this photo at all. I've no idea what's in the shot, or how it represents either high or low. This is pretty poor, though I do hope you make it through on the grounds of your previous submittals.

Nate:
Motion: Whilst I understand the gripes with this being a snapshot rather than, say, blurred, for me too many blurs can spoil the broth. It doesn't take too much imagination to see the movement implied in the shot, and it's again different. Like.

Opposites: I think this was probably the most obvious thing one could have gone for, but you've made something quite mundane look rather pretty. Favourite photo this round.

Patrick:
Motion: Well I guess the Eye does move, but terribly slowly. I think focus on the traffic on this street could have made an excellent photo, though.

Opposites: I think this was probably the easiest 'opposites' theme given to anyone, and as such this is disappointing - the difference between the hands is negligible and even so it's not particularly an exciting photo, is it?

GypsyGoth 28-11-2009 07:41 PM

Thanks Shaun, I won't let you down next week :hugesmile:

Patrick 28-11-2009 08:07 PM

Has the result been wrote out yet or what?

Sam! 28-11-2009 08:25 PM

Time for the first and final [lol] elimination before the final!
