April Photography Competition: Faith

[alef]

Err, not done this before: do you vote on the photo or how well it meets the theme or both or whatever?

Up to you really. Think most go for both.

 

[alef]

1. big eejit - Easter Morning
2. bosco - I Love Jesus
3. Robster970 - Catholic priest


Also liked:
BlueSquareThing - Methodist brewery
sleaterkinney - Where crosses go to die
tiki - Church -Heaven or Hell.

And a grumpy suggestion to a few entries: just say 'no' to selective colouring.

As I said, I liked Easter Morning a lot too. But selective colouring there as well surely? So what makes that different?

Looking at it again there is clearly some heavy photoshopping going on (which sometimes I don't mind). Here the b+w bits are just the dark shadows. Guess what I'm saying is I don't like obvious sections placed in b+w separate from the colour as if it were some kind of Athena poster of kittens.

Ah ok. I'm with you on that. Which is why I don't really like the sickle on orange one, or the candles - and I'm not intending any offence here to the photographers, just expressing a personal preference. For me it's the difference between study and capture.

I like selective colouring. So there.

Not selective colouring, lomo filter thing as I said on the entry. Which darkens the edges amongst other things. It's not what you do, it's the way that you do it! Who said that?!

I just googled that and found the PS tutorial, clever stuff.

Congratulations!
