Overall the comments were positive and encouraging. Individual comments on the submitted images were very useful. It made me realise that when doing an assignment there is a risk of narrowly focusing on the main subject of the image and forgetting the impact that the less important parts of the image have on the overall effect. There is a need to put the work on one side for a couple of days and return to it with fresh eyes. Examining the technical aspects afresh probably would have led to a better image. Taking a critical view of the whole image can only be beneficial.
The comments also highlighted the advantage of bracketing the exposure of images that have a high contrast so that full use can be made of the software.
I have to confess that one thing I had never consciously considered was to have a common aspect ratio across images that are part of a theme. It seems so obvious when it is pointed out to you. In part this is because I never set out to view the images as a 'panel' that would have brought the irregularity to light. Whilst I do not see this as a rule set in stone it has a lot going for it.
On to finalising Assignment 4 - the book cover.
