ron_karpel 0 Posted December 12, 2001 I like to know what you think about this one. Please critic and rate. Thanks, Link to comment
stephen_bonk 0 Posted December 12, 2001 Ron, I like this shot. I think I would crop one of the sides so that the clibmer is not so much in the center. Probably the left side. Link to comment
philmorris 0 Posted December 13, 2001 The climbers a little too central for me and there's too much sky I think. My thoughts suggest may be shooting from a position a little more to the right in vertical format with say 50% less sky and with the ropes coming down almost into the viewers hands. Link to comment
chris_browne 0 Posted December 18, 2001 Neat shot, I wonder if less sky and placing the climber less in the center would have added even more drama? Link to comment
ron_karpel 0 Posted December 20, 2001 I bag to differ. The icicles hanging on both sides of the climber contributing to the sense of orientation. Cut them out, and the guy might be crawling on a flat surface for all we know. Same thing goes for the sky. I played with this quite a bit and decided to keep it this way. This was also on my mind when I took the picture, and I made the same decision then. I have a few other shots at http://www.karpel.org/Ron/Reports2001/Ouray020301.html of the same scene (one is exactly the way Phil Morris suggested above), but I like this one better. Link to comment
