Ryan F- Ray Bans

The title of this image is “Ray Bans”. I took this picture on August 23, 2015, in my driveway. I took it with a Canon Rebel EOS T4i. To edit it I enhanced and cropped it, then I changed the saturation to 56, definition to 30, shadows to 17, sharpness to 100, and temperature to 2. It could be better if I balanced the picture better.

Good job, Ryan

I really like this picture, especially textures of the ground and the case and how the light bounces off the foremost corner of the glasses. Also, the reflection of trees in the left lens is pretty neat. I was originally going to recommend turning the saturation up more, but looking at it again, I can see that it’s at a good balance already. However, I do think that cropping out some of the blurred background above the image would not only reduce some of the out-of-focus areas but also draw closer in to the subject. As well, cropping out some space underneath the subject too would rebalance the image and even add some of the balance you said you needed. That’s what I think. Other than those changes, I think it might be the best it can be.

This seems like a very well-done photo. The focus on the subject is just right, however the lighting could have been toned down a tad. There's also too much empty space in the top of the picture, so cropping it to fit better might be an improvement. Besides the top of the picture, it looks very well-balanced. The lighting is overall the same in each part of the picture, so there isn't any issues with contrast. I think that the photo seems very lively, but not too vibrant. Great job, overall.

Nice Shot! I think that the shallow depth of field works well with this image. it makes the background blurry and out of focus so that the viewer focuses on the glasses. I also like the colors used and the gold vs the purple on the sunglasses and how it is centered on the glasses. I think that the temples of the glasses and the case create unique curves within the image. I enjoy this picture because of the contrasting colors and the reflection of the sun and sky in the glass contrasted with the ground.
