ah yeah I see what you mean about your stuff...

But when I say I _shouldn't_ be here it's because of WORK! - remember (that's not a real question) last month when I said if I had to go through 400 wedding photos I'd shoot myself? -- alas, looks like I'm doing that...

Terrible lighting coniditions - TOO MUCH light! ugh...
But I'm richer by a K-5 and that makes it worth while

Of course you should be here, Ann! I agree that more blur in the corn would be 
nice, but it's shot wide open, so that's as good as it gets without 
manipulation. And I usually don't like artificial blur in backgrounds, plus 
doing it right is a lot of work.. The magazine art directors will have their 
way with it anyway, probably strip it out or do something horrid to it. The car 
owners who buy prints are happy if their car is sharp, and I don't charge 
enough to warrant lots of post manipulation.

my two cents is that the degree of blurriness of the cornfield isn't enough - 
or should be totally sharp. I agree about the tree.
don't mind the corn slant.

Quoting Paul Stenquist <pnstenqu...@comcast.net>:

I'm a bit torn here. Among my shots from the Mopar Nationals are some
profiles sot on a road next to a cornfield. I'm locked into just a few
shooting sites at this event due to the size of the crowd and limited
access to other venues, so this cornfield and the parking lot next to
it is my best choice. Unfortunately, the road and cornfield don't
share the horizontal. I either render profiles with the road going
downhill and the cornfield level or the rod level and the cornifield
descending (the way  it actually is). Here's a shot rendered in that
manner:

Do you find the horizontal mismatch distracting?


Not especially.  I probably wouldn't have noticed if you hadn't pointed
it out.

The dead tree in the background is more distracting to my eye but not a
lot.



Cheers

Doesn't mayer much for the magazine because it will probably be
stripped our if used large, but when making prints for car owners,
it's a consideration.
