Wheat Feet

Contributed by E McDougal

our family went to Oregon this summer and it was really awesome for all of the younger cousins to get to hang out and play together because we are never all together. some of the younger girls were standing up on this fence looking out over the ocean and I took a picture of their feet. I raised the contrast and saturation on this photo and cropped out a little of the top of the fence.

Well most other pictures put up are like really significant but this is just a really good picture. its crisp and has a depth of feel that compliments the theme. I love it!

This picture has a natural look to it. I like the atmosphere it's been taken in. I like how some of the wheat is blurred out towards the front part and it's all clear everywhere else. The shoes are pretty tight. :P

I really like this picture. I like how you used the color brown consistently throughout the composition. I also like how only part of the feet are in the picture. I also like how the fence works as a leading line. Great job!

Great job on this photo. There is a good depth of field and the feet are in focus while some of the grass is blurred. You were able to capture a nature aspect with the lighting and the grass. :)

I think this picture has a sort of natural look to it. When i looked at it i liked the blur look when i first look at it. Even though i cant see the faces it just seems that hey are happy just by looking at their feet.

This photo really jumped out at me as I was looking through the other pictures. The composition works really well, and I also think that you did right in
raising the contrast and saturation. Pictures of shoes are always very interesting to me, but you captured it in a way that was unique. good job!

I really enjoy this photograph because of the feet. I like how it looks extremely country and the feet are clean. i would have changed one this on this, and i would of focused on the first thing of wheat where the feet would of been a tiny bit blurry.

I really like this photo for many different reasons. I like how the kid's feet are focused and the rest of the images, (such as the wire, pole, and wheat/grass), are somewhat blurred. I also really like the softness of the light that hits their legs, as well as the little bit of light at the vanishing point. This photo looks like it tells a story. You can't really tell where it is, so it also lets the viewer use their imagination. Great job :)

i like how natural this photo looks. the sun seems to be hitting the subjects just right. the colors are soft and earthy which adds a neat effect. the saturation seems just right. the lines of the fence and down the feet are great. i also like how the plant in the very front is blurred which adds depth.

The photo has nice soft and earthy colors, which adds a neat effect. The lines of the fence really draw your attention to the main subject. How the plant is blurred in the very front is blurred adds depth. The only thing I dislike is the girls feet in front it makes the picture look a bit tacky with chipped nail polish.

I really like the idea behind this image. It is simple, but nice. I may have shot the picture with just the brown shoes. Then brown would be the dominant color. The sandals add a burst of color and seem a bit fancier which contrasts with the simples theme, but maybe that what you were going for. I like the focus and the lighting. Very natural. Nice job!

Cute picture. The depth of field is cool with the wheat. I also like how the shoe types vary. It’s a good effect that they are standing on the bar; I don’t think it would be as effective if you could see all the people.
