Does this fit under the challenge catagory? I figured it wouldn't be much of a shot without the shadows.

This shot was actually mostly luck, I had just stepped out of the car at the park and a big clump of snow fell from the tree, I didn't have time to do anything but click the shutter. That's why it may be a little lacking in the composition.:dunno

Taken on december 1st 2004

    WOW! I love that, it's fantastic! I'll let experts comment on details, but overall you should be really proud of that one. I think it fits the catgory, but only the judges know for sure.

    Anyway, welcome to the forum and keep posting, Jessa! wave.gif

    Jessa,

    I like this shot alot. You must have had the camera set perfectly cause the shot isnt too overexposed in the center while there is still alo of detail in the foreground shadows. I think this does fit the theme, but that is just my opinion. I like it though. Cant wait to see some more shots from you.thumb.gif

    Terrific shot! Do you have Photoshop, to play with contrast a wee bit, maybe try to darken the blue sky also?
