Doc Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Interesting subject Martin, thank you! - had to think about this one - In-putting chiaroscuro to my keywords would have produced zero results! Here are my entries: 1. The American Air Museum hangar in the Imperial War Museum, Duxford Cambridgeshire 2. Giraffes drinking at a waterhole at dusk, Etosha National Park, Namibia 3. A family inside Rydal cave in Summer, Rydal, the Lake District Kumar 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, those last two images were shot on film. When I joined Alamy in 2007, I copied about 2 dozen film images onto digital using a Repronair slide copier (spelling?). The Rome image was taken with a Nikon DSLR. Edited February 16, 2022 by Ed Rooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Woods Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 That's a great photo of the American hangar at Duxford, Doc. Curses, I have stood within a yard of that very spot drinking a tea from the little café just behind and taken lots of images, but I never saw that dramatic composition.

It was taken last week when I went to see the spitfires exhibition. The place was so crowded that there was a huge queue for the cafe - otherwise I would have had a coffee and probably missed the shot as well!

Marianne Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Congrats on your win Martin! Great - if difficult - contest concept. For others wishing to see more examples, check this out: https://www.thephotoargus.com/35-gorgeous-examples-chiaroscuro-photography/ Wish I could shoot something new for this - it's such an inspiring topic - but my Mac is in the shop and I'm struggling on a 2009 MacBookPro that is temperamental at best. It took me hours and hours to do my DACS submission yesterday - kept having to restart, etc. - I finally switched to my husband's PC (which I hate to use) - and of course I just saw this today. Been very last minute all month. Glad we'll soon be into March with Spring on the horizon. An ice storm here last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) Sorry I still can't seem to make the images larger. It used to be easy to drag from one window to the next but it doesn't seem to work any more. Right clicking doesn't give me any options. Fun challenge. Have a good weekend! Edit: Trial and error figured out the large image thing at last so re-posted below. Edited February 25, 2022 by Marianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTR016 The Kentucky International Convention Center lit up at night, Louisville, Kentucky Since drag and drop and right-clicking no longer works on this or my much newer Mac to get the full-size image, I kept experimenting and found that if I hit shift when I right click and then hit "copy image location" it works. Eureka! Edited February 25, 2022 by Marianne 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
