Setting the bar high I see, masterfully done eager.

One thought: The back wall is slightly greenish in appearance, while the rest of the image is quite warm. Perhaps selectively warming up just the wall would be advantageous?

Thank you for your nice comment!!

In fact, the wall IS green. I suppose I might consider adjusting it, but I really would rather not mess with the color unless it is very distracting.

Very skillfully done! The only criticism I might have is that the books on the monitor are higher than the books on each side of the screen. Other than that, its great!

Comparative technology of past and present I see - good idea and well presented.

Thanks for the comments.

I may try to reshoot this if I get the time. The books did bother me a bit also, but then again.....new technology does sometimes "distort" the real world.

Thank you for your kind words.

I actually started with the idea of just showing how the "new" technology of the typewriter must have affected the "handwriting" society....the monitor happened to be on the desk and had to be cleared off to set up the shot.

Then the whole idea sort of changed ....

Hi eager,

Very interesting shot. It definitely does confront one with the philosophical question, but also the how the heck was that shot created question. Very nice and thoughtful piece. Good luck this month.

I love the creativity you put into this shot. The planning paid off. I love the concept,
lighting and composition.

Awesome photo,
Chad
