Re: PESO - PAD - Stalking the Swans - Print-a-Day-12

Very well done George! My screen does show a bit of general highlight clipping 
on the right 30%
 
I think for a puzzle, it is too homogeneous what with the large area of rocks 
and, also, those lesser areas of water and grass. OTOH,  while it may lack 
interest, it might be more for those who like a challenge.

This is number 12 in the  series Print a Day for 30 Days.

http://georges.posterous.com/stalking-the-swans-print-a-day-12

Nothing special here.  It's just a shot of one of the other
photographers from a past photo walk.

I selected this image for the printing project because of the shadows
on the stone wall.  The detail in the stone face depends on capturing
the range of highlights and shadows.  It doesn't need to be perfect,
but the variations need to be smooth.  If the shadows block up or the
highlights are overblown, all the detail is lost.  I've been using
glossy paper for this project and the print turned out just fine.

Anyone think this might make a good puzzle?  There are services that
turn photos into puzzles.  I haven't put a puzzle together for years,
but that's what I thought of when I saw the wall.

I like the composition - think it might be better in bW...
But in color, yeah, it would be a good jigsaw.

I wonder about those made jsut for you jigsaws though, i have a feeling 
they would be too uninteresting in terms of forms.  seems to me smugmug

makes them - or gets them made - I think I put that option in my shop.

There's some humour in this.

Well composed, beautifully rendered. 

A winner.

Cheers,
