This is just a quick scan from a 10x15cm color print. I'm trying to

decide whether to pursue this as a serious print (in sepia on

Panalure paper for an exhibit opening soon).

Sometimes I look at the photo and think "snapshot". Other times I

look at it and delight in the forms and layout of space. So, I

thought I would get a few other opinions and perhaps be swayed...

Oh yes, you can't tell from the scan, but both faces have adequate

detail for printing.

Unfotunately there is not a single complete object on this photo, which make me ask, "what was the objective?".

Also, i think the faces are very dark in comperison to the rest being so white.

What's your light source? It's very strong. I also have a hard time determining your objective: do you want to capture the villagers "being eminent," or being a small element of the storehouse?

Bounced flash on hotshoe for primary light source.

I was trying to photograph the space and in this case considered the people to be part of that space. The storehouse had a strange empty quality even when people were milling about. I guess that is what I remember and it probably colors my perception of the photograph now. It sounds as though this wouldn't make a popular print (assuming better done than this scan) for those who haven't been there... :-)

Thanks for the comments!
