#42 Some trials

travelways

After some previous trials on the PJ form and some intensive shooting in a city with no events this time of the year, and almost no outside activity due to the cold winter, I selected some that may worth to show here.

I'm saying "here" because as I understood the actual theme of this challenge is broader than just PJ.

So, in the context of this challenge, please tell me if any of these photos below are communicating anything to you or not:

#1 A social problem, or something else?



#2 Us and the rest of the world



#3 Restoration of old buildings in downtown



#4 Time for a Caribbean vacation



#5 Time for a Caribbean vacation 2



#6 Walking is healthy for moms and babies



#7 Stroller for tree



#8 Ice fishing downtown Ottawa



#9 Rideau canal (Ottawa) is open for skating... or, Winter story



Thank you for looking.

Tatiana,

I'm so new to street and PJ myself that my comments may be too limited for you.
#1 seems to fit. I'd like to see a little more of the passerby.

#2 I'm not sure what the story here is.

#3 the title tells the story, rather than the image.

#4 I like this one. I'd like the traveller to be in focus with the queue in soft focus or oof. I like the 'seasonal' contrast betweenthe subject's clothing and the queue's. Perhaps a closer crop would help, too.

#5 and #6 seem more like snapshots than stoires.

#7 I like this onet wonder if the sign ion the left is supposed to be telling us something about this story.

#8 with the title it tells a story, but the people are rpominent enough to be the subject. It's a nice BW conversion and it makes me wonder what they are doing. The footprints make a nice pattern.

#9 I like this one the best. The BW is nice and the title gives me a sense of place.

MHO, of course.

Thank you very much Chris for the feed-back.

Your comments totally make sense

For the last one, when I edited it, I realized that there was actually a story going on, between
the 2 girls and the 2 boys in the middle - maybe not both, but one boy for sure

That's why I made a double title.

However, now, I know exactly what my shot has to be, and I hope I'll get it right tomorrow or in the week-end.

Thank you again!

I think #1 and #5 are both perfect for the theme, but suffer a little on the technical side with some blurriness. You can try sharpening up #5 in post.

#3 and #9 are much sharper, and fit the theme as well, but are not as interesting
