Original SunDancer

Nice shot ! :-) Strong eye contact !!

You have done a very fine "restoration" the eyes are very good, the tonal range is excellent. Well done.

Excellent job Jim. The composition and the tones seem right on. Another very interesting personality captured on film with great detail as well.

I took this shot around 3 pm on a bright summer day. The dancer's

face was brown from the sun to beguin with (he'd been dancing outside

all weekend) so to keep some detail in the head dress I had to tone

down his face even further. Combine that with a poor scan of the

print and I had a shot that was a nightmare to correct. Hope you like

it...jim

Hi Jim,

Once again - a great picture.

 

I decided to play with your photo. What do you think?

Cheers,

Ringo

Ringo...Gold Star; now how'd you do it? Cheers.

Jim, I like the photo submitted. The contast of the eyes captures my attention. In the same vein, I really like the original better! To me it gives that "old world" Native American photo feel. The spirit of the dancer hits me more in the original. Nice job on both though!

 

Very good as it is.

Jim.....its REDSKIN toned down....ISN'T IT? Another great picture from your brill folder!!!!

Hello Jim:

Another great portrait, only question, when do you ever get a full weekend of sun? I think Ringo is onto something with his version, the sepia gives somehow gives it more of Curtis feel and the lower contrast reveals more detail. Peace!
