This is a composit of pictures taken this week at about 8 am. This is the first time i have tried digital manipulation of this type so any sugestions welcome. Thanks for looking
ilike where you were going withthis, but it's a bit too much (or perhaps just my taste) i'd suggest re-doing this but with maybe half of the images... also, the extreme differences in light levels throughout the frame detract from what looks to actually be a great piece of work. hope this helps
I too like the idea. I've wanted to do somthing similar, but just haven't found time yet. Did you have to leave the camera on the tripod all week? Personnally, I don't like the one blue one in there. It doesn't really flow with the color scheme well (cool vs. warm colors). I think if you try it again, maybe try to break up the places where the pictures join. Keep up the good work...it's nice to see a different take on a classic picture.
Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-lengthening, ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end of the journey. But this, so far from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb. - Churchill
my opinion .... the concept is good .. the execution missed the mark a bit
first .. I feel the image itself is weak ... and you've cluttered the actual point of interest in it .. use a rocksolid image, and consider using a HARD edge (even a frame) on your 'overlaps' .. as though the "whole" is made up of a pile of small images .. similar to the way a photomontage or panoramic program can stitch together many small images into ONE large, seamless product ... also .. consider 'tilting' the overlaps as though it is just a pile of small photos that happen to create a larger image ...
and .. I don't feel the different colors worked in this example
I will link to panoramafactory as a small (poor) example of what I mean by hard edge and frame .. (with out the tilting)
this isn't something you are likely to "nail" on the first try ... but, try you did .. and that's good
It's good, but I would cut the black sillhouetted shore out and just use the sunset, water and sand. The color blue is a bit to much contrast there. And maybe move the lightest overlap up a little bit because it looks to much in line with the darker one next to it. But I do see the start of something beautiful.
