Please vote for your favorite image from the "Depth" assignment for the "People's Choice" award. The guidelines for this assignment were to compose an image to convey "depth," meaning "the distance from the top of something to its bottom, from front to back, or from the outside in." I also encouraged participants to review the "Linear Perspective" (http://community.spiritofphotography.com/index.php?topic=125.0) and "Near, Middle, Far" (http://community.spiritofphotography.com/index.php?topic=157.0) assignments for techniques that could help convey "depth." Participants were also encouraged to compose an image to convey a more conceptual meaning of "depth," such as “the strength of a feeling," "complexity of character or thought," or "richness of a color." Or better yet, create a composition that combines both the "perspective" and "conceptual" meanings of "depth" for an even more compelling image.
To vote for an image, simply select the image title in the "poll" attached at the top of this thread, and click "submit vote." NOTE: You need to be logged in to see the voting options. Voting will end at midnight, Mountain Time (GMT-07:00) on Sunday, 2 August 2009.
