C & C on collage - 11-03-2008, 11:49 AM


Please give me some things you like and don't like about this. My daughter, whom I'm considering has OCD, doesn't like the fact that the lighting is different in 3 out of 4 photos---guess it's good she at least noticed.!! I'm not good with the text and am not thrilled with it all, so if any suggestions are out there I'm open!!

Cute! I like the text, but I'm with your daughter in my own OCD-situation, so I agree on the lighting.

Just the 3rd one bothers me tho! I bet it's fixable.

Sorry, but we OCD-ers have to stick together!

I don't think it's so much OCD as it is the fact that the images are very different in terms of lighting and temperature. The third one draws my attention away from the rest. If you could balance them all in terms of brightness and temp, I think it would be a vast improvement.

You do have a good start though.

I'm playing with them now Tom...I'm personally liking the lighting in the 3rd one, which means I have to make the temp in the 1st one 9900 to get it to match in my eyes (which may or may not be right???!!!) Am I going about this backwards? Should I be getting the 3rd one to match the other 3?

that looks much better to me -- but I would go a bit brighter on 1 and a bit cooler on 3

Renae I like the last one with the Tigers, however I would change the first and third photos where the "action" so to speak is looking into the photo instead of taking you out of the photo.

Hope that makes sense.

I like the version with 4 images. In that version images 1, 2, 4 are too blue. You need to add yellow and a little red.

Before I had gotten to the last-3 photos-version, I had already decided that this presentation wanted to be 2 verticals flanking a square. We're thinking alike here. Now, we need your daughter looking toward the middle not toward the margin. So, either switch the two verticals left and right or find other photos where she is looking in the direction of the camera and slightly toward the middle of the composition. Clear as mud? And make her bigger relative to the tiger if humanly possible. Sh'e kinda lost in the picture with the tiger.

Heck, this is Photoshop right? Duplicate the lefthand picture and mirror it. Then she's looking at the camera and into the page.

LSCN.com beat me to it.
