This is my first go-round of submitting photos to a jury. Would you critique the images and let me know which ones you think are my strongest ones? I took 11 paintings to the photographer.
I'm a bit bothered by the small misalignment of the diptych images, but maybe they aren't displayed long enough for a juror to notice, I don't know.
I noticed that there are white flecks, which I am guessing is reflected light on the images of the dark paintings. Should I have the photographer clean these up? Is that possible?
Also, because I am an emerging artist, I asked him after the photo shoot to create a grouping to be used in place of a booth shot, as several shows allow that. Hopefully I'll have a booth soon.
TIA

#1 is the original. #2 is my correction. #3 is your photographers correction.

Much nicer!
Reworked photos from photographer. Are these acceptable? I will avoid using the ones with white if you still think they don't project well. Which photos do you suggest using for jury submissions? TIA

Not at all what I mean. You've taken all the vibrancy out of the images. E-mail me the image and I'll do a side by side comparison showing how the brightness is a not as bright but the color is still there.

Hi Cheryl, just now I've downloaded your attachment and uploaded the first one here, after I resized it (at webresizer.com) because it was so large. Your question will be better answered if you'd put the images rather than the attachment here. Not sure how to do that? Click in the tab up above "Get Started" and you'll see how easy it is to add your images.
Do you see the links below 'Attachments' in each post?
And the groupings. The first one, Cheryl Hewitt-grp-2.jpg, he forgot to bring it down to 1920, so he'll fix that.
