Ste. Elizabeth colour shots

[invisible]

I think I like the monochrome images (http://www.photoforum.com.au/showthread.php?33643-Ste.-Elizabeth-monochromes) better than this colour set, but I'm comfortable enough with these to share.

Always amazes me how you make junk interesting. #2 is my pick of this lot

How much time do you put into each image when taking the photo.

Thanks much, Ian. Junk IS beautiful and interesting!


How much time do you put into each image when taking the photo.
It depends... I do spend a long time roaming the locations, jumping from room to room, looking for that "hidden" shot. I could easily spend 2-3 hours in a 2-bedroom house looking for that shot. However, I don't spend too much on each individual photo; I shoot a couple of test frames and then decide if there's a something there or if there's not... If there is something, I spend just a few minutes until I'm happy. (On rare occasions I do spend more time on a shot, though.)

#2 as well, I think that the textures would come out more in mono :)

I do like the monochromes Federico, but I also like the colour set here as well.

I am of the opinion that it does not matter with your sets whether they are mono or colour. It is the subject matter and composition that counts.

The fact that you search out the best compositions is quite evident because as IanB says above, you really do make "junk" interesting. It is a real talent that you have and I think you should foster it.

Thank you again, Dr. Evil! I too thought that B&W would suit #2 well, but I found out that with so much texture on the wall the telephone kind of gets lost... I'm not too happy with the colour version either, to be honest. The green of the wall on the right shows two different tones, the result of of two different temperatures of light... I don't know how to correct that :(

Thank you for your continuous support of my photos, Lloyd, it's really cool of you. Still a very long way to go, but I like the direction my photography is going to :)
