Weathered Tobacco Barn 5.5 7 7.5 20 Don Poulton Pictorial Master J1 This image is an impressionist rendering of the subject with a post processing treatment, likely a texture of weathered wood planks, applied to the entire image. Visual confusion has resulted so reducing the opacity of the texture layer would strengthen the image without losing the message. J3 this has been incorrectly placed in pictorial, rather than creative, by either the photographer or the competition committee (?) Aperture: 5.6Camera: Canon EOS 7D Mark IIIso: 400 Ibis Hunting Squirrel 6 8.5 7.5 22 Don Poulton Creative Master J1 Good concept. the detail/texture and lighting on the bird and squirrel are so different from the rest of the image that they just look pasted on top. The result is an in-cohesive image. Consider applying some of the texture from the background to the bird and squirrel to create a smoother blend. Aperture: 5.6Camera: Canon EOS 7D Mark IIIso: 400
