John Peri 1,007 Posted February 15, 2011 As often is the case, hesitation with the colour version .. Link to comment
JPPhoto1664880217 2 Posted February 15, 2011 There is much more visual tension in the color version. In addition to the tonal contrast in the face and cross necklace, the green in the area behind her and the orange in the scarf around her waist draw the eye. Both are good. Jim Phelps Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted February 15, 2011 Thank you Jim. I often have a penchant for black and white. It is non intrusive and impersonal. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted February 15, 2011 I think the black and white works better, but that's just a personal preference. The model is an absolute knockout either way, though.The image looks a little soft and flat to me John. A little bump in sharpness and contrast would liven it up just a bit.The horizontal crop works, but I think a vertical crop would work too, focusing more on the model without losing a sense of "place" Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted February 15, 2011 Scoot, that is an interesting viewpoint. Thank you very much. Link to comment
krpradu 125 Posted February 16, 2011 Scott opinion about vertical crop seems to me a very good idea and shows better the model,I prefer the bw version,compliments for this one John. Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted February 16, 2011 Thank you all, I appreciate your attention to this picture ... I like Scott's crop also, but it's another photo with less accent on the surroundings which determine her expression .. Link to comment
elportebonheur 0 Posted February 16, 2011 Aesthetically pleasing, as usual in fact. Guess by integrating the background in this type of photography you are striving for a look that is more ‘natural’ - this even has a look that it has not been posed for at all. Mho only. Compliments John Link to comment
andrzejp 6 Posted February 17, 2011 Fantastic image. A clear 7 for the B&W and 6 for color. I love color images but somehow this one looks more powerful in B&W. Link to comment
amitai schwartz 0 Posted February 20, 2011 I especially like your color version. It's a standout gem. Link to comment
smigliori 0 Posted February 20, 2011 John,beautiful photo.I love the color version as the background can give prominence to the body of the model. I also like the horizontal cut, gives a greater sense of depth.If you do not mind, I offer you my interpretation to know what you think.Thank you.Sincere congratulations.Stefano. Link to comment
