bgelfand 1,260 Posted October 21, 2002 The white space, frame left, tends to pull my eye away from your subject to... nothing. Have you considered cropping to just the lady and printing it in portrait mode rather than landscape? You caught a pensive expression on her face; nice shot. Was it posed or candid? Link to comment
george_pappas1 0 Posted October 25, 2002 Patrick, I understand why you didn't want to crop and make a typical "tightly framed" image, but I still find the bright expanse of white to be too jarring. Perhaps if you printed down the white area with buring or flashing it would serve your purpose yet make it less distracting. I like your image very much. The expression and feeling you captured is one of those "happy accidents" that we are sometimes fortunate enough to get....You put yourself in a position do to so. Link to comment
mauricio_jos__schwarz 0 Posted October 27, 2002 I see a lighting problem, the too-light background detracts attention from the very beautiful and well-posed model. Link to comment
micke_ylinen 0 Posted October 28, 2002 i think the bright background makes this shot interesting, don't do anything! it's really great as it is! Link to comment
erik_kowalewsky 0 Posted November 12, 2002 I like how the other photos in the roll frame this. Great idea! I also like the tone -- unless my eyes are fooling me this is not straight B&W. My one criticism is that I would like to see slightly higher contrast here (without further blocking up the path behind her). Link to comment
oliver_indra 0 Posted November 27, 2002 Nice one! I didn´t see the film marks at first glimpse so I thought she´s framed by a window. Very good DOP. Link to comment
rpallagi 0 Posted August 18, 2003 I like to shoot people the way you shoot. I really like this picture as it is, its outstanding, the whiteness doesn't bother me and the framing is original as well... Link to comment
