Potter at Skansen - Sweden

Skansen - Stockholm - Sweden

I do like this portrait ... the use of light to capture the craftman in his environment ... but still have atmophere shadows .. just great.

Now I just love everything about this shot.

Very well done.7/7

The light and general mood of this picture is excellent.

Nice, what I would call an enviornmental portrait.

A lovely capture of this craftsman at work.

Wonderful environmental portrait. Nice light.

A beautiful portrait of work dedication & concentration. Enjoyable image.

Environmental portraiture at its finest!

Very nice work. Timeless and interesting. Kind regards.

beautiful shot

Esta fotografia...bellisima por cierto...es un magnifico testimonio, de un oficio maravilloso, que ya el tiempo...el progreso...la tecnologia...va dejando atras. Admiro al hombre que con sus manos da forma a un utensilio con materiales nobles extraidos de la naturaleza....y admiro al fotografo, que en esta magnifica composicion..con esa luz perfecta....nos abre la puerta y nos pone frente al espectaculo de crear...de ambos. Felicitaciones...es una hermosa fotografia!!!. 7/7

However, I'd like to add some critique. The blown out window distracts my attention. Tighter crop from left/top/bottom would eliminate that. If possible - I'd reshoot with faster shutter speed. It would give less detail in shadows while keeping the highlights from blowing out.

Beautiful scene and light on the Artist, but the light from the door is too overexposed and it is very distracting!

The same guy!

Very good idea, Ligt is nice here, I think little work on PS will improve it, I try and use Dodge/Burn tool, How is it now ???

Nice attempt, but I am looking for the other hand. Wish I could see some detail in the blown out window.
