Hi Timarron,
I will put forward my first step as a commentator here. I do agree completely with "regular" Harvey. I like the photo #1. And I like the illustration #2. Both are beautiful on their own right, and category.
What I learned from you during the last few days.
Lets see how I'll end this day...
Hmmmm... What the heck am I doing here?
Whao! Not very good? I envy you!:thumbup:
Love the pics. Show us more...
Thank you all guys, I cannot begin to tell you how much you all have taught me with your comments and insights.
Thank you again
Thank you all for your warm welcome and your comments.
Best regards,
AlbertH
Ha! This is more than what I bargained for... and I appreciate it more than I can say! :D
Regards,
:-D
Thanks rpavich,
As I said above, those people on an empty street stroke me for their sad appearance, and my question was precisely because I was not sure I conveyed my feelings with that picture. I cropped it tighter as you suggested, you can see above the result.
Now that you so well put me in the spot, I think to recognize a lack of sharpness, or contrast?
Thanks again!
Thank you Dunatic
Got you! It seems that most everybody concurs on the needs for cropping. Here I did just that, and somehow, the impression changed a bit--for me at least. She now appears more defiant (or even protective of her kid) than sad, which was not my feeling at that moment.
This is showing me the power of "framing"/"cropping" an image.
Thanks again.
Thanks docrob,
Sure: on a Sunday morning in Granada, Guatemala, I came across this sad, but determined, looking woman, next to his companion in a seemingly praying pose.
Do you share?
Thank you Leicaflex,
That is exactly how I felt in encountering them on a walk in Granada, Guatemala. I think cropping it will lose a bit that sense of loneliness, Don't you?
Thanks again.
Is is possible to comment on two different levels? One, the technical; the other, the emotional?
Thanks guys,
