This is only the second time I have made an entry and, for the life of me, can't remember how I succeeded to add a photo the last time. (Must be "Old Timers Disease") Adding link just in case the embedded photo doesn't work:

"Film Bleu" maybe?

Thanks! I rather like how it came out.
She was actually having a ton of fun with it. This was just part of the overall photoshoot but she loved the Nerf gun.

I don't fully understand how one is suppose to enter a photo for an assignment and have not had a chance to read through this web site. As of yet, I was going to try and make a photo for the Film Noir assignment but i am not a photographer ( I am wanting to learn though and is why I found this site and signed up).


While I realize this photo is too late to be considered. I would appreciate any comments on the photo I took the other night, would it be considered Film Noir?



This photo is of my Gretsch Corvette lying on my hardwood floor hallway and using above lighting (hallway light).

I do not know what EXIF is yet? I took this with a Canon Powershot 540 in scene mode (color accent)

First of all I love the guitar, quite a beauty you have there!

Here is a brief excerpt from wikipedia - "The low-key lighting schemes of many classic film noirs are associated with stark light/dark contrasts and dramatic shadow patterning".

While your shot does have some shadows... in my opinion there aren't really areas of stark light/dark. So (in my opinion) this isn't quite film noir style. But, I love the guitar and it is a nice shot even if it isn't film noir.

This was supposed to be my first post, photo, participation, etcetera. It's late for me because I found this great site a few days ago and I'm still trying to remember and practice the basics of photography. 30 years is a long time. The point is that I don't want to be late again so when you say that is closed because is 8am GMT, and considering that I live in the Caribbean (Puerto Rico), what would be my 'dead time'.? Any comment in my photo will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Fego
