[edit] RE: Selective Colour or Color as we Yanks call it...

Hi,

I have read your comment regarding my contribution to the article. I don't feel I made my reasons that clear for changing your image; the reason I changed it was because I feel that the article gives the impression that this very effective technique can only be applied to wedding photography, which looking at your work appears to be a field you excel at :), so i changed the image to show another application of the technique/process.

keep up the good work

Nice reply to my my rather rude and terse message. I was up late when I penned it, and was not in a jovial mood.

Point well taken that the selective color process is indeed not limited to wedding photos. However, besides seeing one of my favorite images removed (which is neither here nor there), it seemed to me that your replacement image wasn't (if you'll pardon me) particularly well framed or composed. Also, the sign in question was such a small part of the image, it almost gets lost. In other words, I think it is still quite possible to take a more visually interesting photo of the same subject matter to illustrate that selective color can be used for applications other than wedding imagery. I would suggest getting a bit closer to the red sign and framing it in a manner that corresponds with this tutorial. A clinical or informational photo need not look like a snap shot, and with a bit of attention to framing and subject matter can be improved to a great degree.

In any case, thank you for a much more gracious reply than I deserved.

Hi,
Cheers for your reply! Don't worry about your original comment, I would be miffed if the same thing happened to me. As for your remark about my image, THANKS!! :) I understand where you are coming from and I am always open to criticism with regards to my hobby. The image was not meant to be anything special, it was just a quick scene I snapped while walking through the local park in Hastings with my girlfriend. Hopefully when my Canon gets fixed I can get out there and get back to taking some real pictures.

Thanks again,

[edit] Your message on the ATC Talkpage

If you feel that swearing is a cause for concern, then I would bring it up with your CO, or anyone else senior. Meateater 17:38, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

It was not me who posted that message originally. I have no problem with swearing on my sqn. If i'm telling a cadet off, the chances are I will probably swear a bit.
