Time in Motion

Hi, new to submitting on a forum. Any critiques welcome. All my

images are film, being scanned on a flatbed scanner.

 

Would like to hear what neutral observers think (friends and family

may lie....;-) )

 

Thanks

A lot of people are of the opinion that placing things center-most isn't a very good composition. I have to disagree, and I think this shows why. The blurring of all but the subject, in addition to placing him in the center, really locks in attention. The fact that he's making eye-contact also lends to this. Interesting. It has a balance between fixedness, for lack of a better word, and motion.

Thanks for that.

Though one assumes I had the time to 'place' the subject. One of those see-image, grab for camera moments. Old fashioned 'panning' giveing the atmosphere of blurring.

In the darkroom - it can be cropped to give the subject left of center lead-in position, but I like the original more.
