  • DESCRIPTION AND SETTINGS : This image was created specifically for this contest. As you can see it is a set of kitchen measuring cups. They were placed on the hood of a white vehicle in direct sunlight. Numerous setups were tried to see what the shadows would look like. This one caught my eye. The shadow looks a bit like a cartoon foot. That amused me. As you can see this image has lots of circles. The cups are round, there are circles in the end of each handle and the bonus is the circles created in the shadow. This image was essentially monochrome right out of the camera since both the cups and the vehicle were white. I made it official with a B&W High Contrast preset in Lightroom Classic.
  • Judge's Critique: Cups and Shadow: Interesting play of light and shadow to create more circles. The image seems flat (monotone). See the visual critique. Did processing for contrast do anything to enhance the shot? Side note: your sensor needs cleaning.
