Flower Pots

 

I like the idea of this photograph, but there is something lacking. Is it too dark? Should I have waited for a cloudy day? It's near my home, so I can go back again and again to see if I can do a better job than this.

    The concrete should be on Zone VI(well, that's what Ansel always said and I have found it to be mostly true) ie. 1 stop more exposure than the meter is averaging for. Concrete is difficult to meter accurately!

      Concrete in Zone VI. Thanks, I'll try that next time to see how it turns out.

    It looks a bit flat to my eyes. Don't know if that's an exposure or a lighting thing. I guess if it's close by you could try it in different lighting conditions and see which you like best.

      I'll have to make another trip. I tried various adjustments in black and white and colour, but nothing is working. Thanks for the feedback.
