Blue Pitcher 1

I couldn't decide which photo I liked best for my PAD entry. I like this one for its composition, but the other one (click on next) for the curtain and light on the pitcher.

I was also having problems with a lens reflection on some of the shots. This one isn't too bad.

Argghhhh! I have enough trouble deciding which picture of my own to use each day! I suppose it's encouraging on some level to see others suffering as well. Gosh; I have the exact same torn feeling between these two. I like each of them very much for how they are similar, but the differences between them I like equally well. I like the composition and color in this one, however I love the reflective light caused by the curtain (and the filler of the curtain itself) in the other. But I'm going to pick this one, I think. Yes.

Beautiful color!

this composition is excellent.. this might look cool printed on a canvas!

This one I think - although they are both beautiful. The soft lighting shows off different textures.. so detailed in the wall, peaches and pitcher. The colors are excellent

*fantastic*... I thought it looked like a painting from the thumbnail!
Guest 16-Aug-2004 01:21
I favor the other one because of the contrast of textures. I like the soft effect of the curtain and the motion it suggests. Both are very good. Well done, Cheryl.
Guest 16-Aug-2004 00:45
I like the lighting in them both but I think this one stands out more due to the slices of winderful looking peach. Yummmm!

Very good.

I like them both. I like this one for the lighting and color. It's an excellent still life. The other is so delicate. Can't decide!
Guest 16-Aug-2004 00:29
