Friends Around Fireplace

Thanks!

I like this one. I like the DOF play. I like the grain. I like the composition.

 

The only gripe I might have would be that on the left on the person at the back is most in focus, and on the right side, the guy in the back (sharp) seems ahead of the one in focus on the left. Details, details....

Hey Flo ! A very cool picture ! One of the nicest I've seen from you. Do you think you can print it out somewhere in Wels ? I'd really like to have this on a paper ... :)

-veroni-

well, cool arrangement of the heads, really cool arrangement, but the grain looks strange too me and the blurrieness, i think i t should be A bIT sharper in the foreground.....and now i know who i remind myself of....georg josseck, hahaha...

the more often i look at it the better i like it, looks really cool!!!

I'm trying to work out what, if any, manipulaion has been done here. There is a beautiful feel to this shot. Mood and light are perfectly matched. I love the mismatch of the faces

manipulation done: scanned the film with a film scanner. actually it was two images. I adjusted the black level with the histogram tool and then raised contrast a little bit. after that, I added a little IIR Blur. You know it was a color image, so i decomposed the RGB channels and took just the Red channel as a b/w image. in the end i sticked both images together. that's it.

Wow! Original, I like it much.
