[quote][b]Gallery204 (14/10/2008)[/b][hr]then the images were taken in the best way to make them look interesting.... then in editing it was turned mono... hardly the same as someone just standing there with a point and click camera and just hoping for the best.

Instead of analysing another photographer's image so negatively, why don't you put some of your stuff on here... I would be more than happy to critique you.[/quote] I'm not saying it's not a good photo, it's just not something I'd expect to sell well

hmmm... now that you come to mention it that seems fair... if I find time I'll post some up, editing you say, hmmm I personally don't delve into editing but I suppose it's a valid method for monochromatics

This has got to be the most pointless thread of all time. Does anybody really care about one slightly odd picture of Carfax?

Sounds like a good idea to me. It would be interesting to see some of Shadow Wolf's work posted on the site.

Well, I didn't personally take the photo...

But, a gallery was opened in Horsham (hence it was assumed that local scenes would be popular)... so areas in the town which would make good shots were sourced... then the images were taken in the best way to make them look interesting.... then in editing it was turned mono... hardly the same as someone just standing there with a point and click camera and just hoping for the best.

And in regards to the effort put into the carfax scene, you weren't involved in the process, so how can you assume that no effort was put into it?[/quote] educated guess...so just what did it involve? concerning what sell best I guess it's all related to the target market and subject more than genre

Well, I must say, local Horsham scenes, such as the Carfax shot in question have sold in the gallery more than anything else so far. Our nature/ landscapes scenes, which are very good, have had a lot of attention... but the the bulk of our clients so far have gone for the local Horsham stuff... It has prooved very popular.

And in regards to the effort put into the carfax scene, you weren't involved in the process, so how can you assume that no effort was put into it?

Oh well, each to their own I guess.

Well, it is an image that has proved very popular in the gallery... and our first customer who purchased it was so impressed they requested that it get turned into a limited edition... so it is!

It looks fantastic when it's blown up and framed in a black moulding.
