Description

Just a test-shot actually, but I kinda like how it came out, so here it is.

Location is Princeton, NJ.

I've recently upgraded from my Canon A95 point-and-shoot to a Nikon D80... which is a big jump for me.

I've used film SLRs before, but not DSLRs, so I'm still figuring out what all the settings do, and unfortunately the weather hasn't been cooperating with my desire to run around taking pictures.

Also, I just got back from a photo-shoot last weekend, so hopefully I'll post a few of those soon (after my client chooses which ones she wants, and providing GFX is still around...)

Nice and symmetric.
Like the tone and good control of light.

Nice depth.

A bit unfortunite with the leaves in top left corner.
The pole or fence or whatever it is in the middle of the frame is also an obvious imperfection imo.

I'll be sure to carry around a jack-hammer next time :p

Dang old-people and their railings.

If you could figure out how to eliminate that, in-camera, you'd be my hero. Seriously.

Of course, I do wish it weren't there as well. But it wasn't a big enough deterrent to not take the shot at all.

Is it a fence or just a pole?
Healing it would be manipulation I guess or what does the new rules say about this beast being eliminated.

In camera? - Not really! :)

It's a metal hand-rail.

I suppose I could clone it out. The furthest arch would probably be a bit of a hassle. Perhaps if I'm bored at work tomorrow I'll take a crack at it just for kicks (although I have quite a few photos that need editing for clients, so it would definitely take a back-burner).

Alright all you complainers. All both of you. I've cloned out the railing. I hope you're all terribly happy now :p Original version is in the additional downloads.

Very good capture! All the gates inside of eachother looks very fascinating. Almost like a mirror effect. Smart choice cloning out the hand rail. ;) Definitively one of my favourites from you!

Honestly Brandon, you got to agree that it looks better without! :)
Good cloning job too! (thumbup)

Glad to be of assistance! ;)

Love the tones and composition. I didn't mind the hand-rail but it does look good without it. A very good image!
Congrats on the new camera!!

This needs more railing, more leaf activity and more cow bell.

Top work Brandon! I really like the framing of this and the symmetry. A good bloomin' future reference for anything gothic based too (don't worry if I ever use this I will ask first!)

Nicely done with composing this photograph. The original had potential if people were involved in it, one walking up the other down would have worked with the railing still there. Version with out railing does work as geometric and does so quite successfully.

Nice shapes and alignment. I prefer it without the railing.
