Out Of Bounds

[Natasha]

Isn't the critisism being offered on a constructive level? I dont know too much about the technical side of photography but I haven't seen any thing really negative here.:dunno

Its better than plastic kiss arse comments anyway, well that's just my opinion.

Maybe...but personally I don't post my photos here for criticism or praise...I post them to share them. And if a beautiful tender moment between my nephew and niece isn't perfect in another's eyes b/c the balance of the photo is off, I really don't care. *shrugs* Maybe it's just me.

Nope, no family photos here. I understand what you're getting at
though if these were family pictures.

True...but it HAS been done before. The point I was trying to make, though, is that the OP was just sharing a cool new thing w/ us...not asking for our critiques. No big deal...it was just something that came to mind when I read the thread.

</end hijack> Sorry folks.

To critique means to find fault and I don't have a problem with that providing the person knows what they are talking about. In the case of the one negative poster it's clear he didn't have a clue and based his comments on his personal thoughts. From what I can tell he didn't bother to extend the energy to even read the link I supplied. If a person doesn't educate himself he can't critique, he can only state his personal thoughts. That's ok too cuz I try and learn from it all. Ya can't please everyone. :surrender

Those are really good, I know how much time is involved in doing that.

I did one a while back for a friend of mine, he was in Scotland and email a pic to me. So I made it an "Out of Bounds" pic and sent it back to him. I didn't have a lot of time to work on it, but this was the pic I sent him.

Don't mind the graininess of the pic, I had to keep the file size small to email it to the dial-up he was on in Scotland.

Tim thanks for posting that. Apologies aren't necessary btw. I like it but if it was me doing it I would have had a few more of the guards on the oob side. Like 1/3 of 'em maybe. That's not a critique btw, it's an opinion. I hope you don't mind.

They are quite a bit of work eh.

Nice man.

All great photos

I love how you got the soldiers shadows "out of bounds" too

Simple method, which can be used in many different ways. Not too keen on the tutorials, but if it's helped you then that's good. I think your typo work could use some re-thinking, mainly when you have put the bold text inside the 'frames' which draws attention away from the actual photograph. Also, if the frame in the last picture has a shadow against the background gradient, why doesn't the planes wing? The wing shouldn't actually be outside the frame at that part, but if you want it that way, you should have the wing overlapping the frame.

Keep up the work.

I probably would have done more of them outside the frame, but I had limited time to do it. So I chose to do fewer.
Next time you do one, try to get the item that's out of bounds to cast a shadow, it will really add to the realism.

And don't worry about any critique, I don't mind at all It's good to hear what others think.
