franky espehana 0 Posted March 16, 2004 Hi Alec, realy realy nice color and composition. I wonder how your eyes, brain and sense work together to create such superb picture at very moment when you took this. Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted March 16, 2004 The light changes very fast so I got to shoot just as quick at the right moment and try to find the next shot. ISO 400 at F5.6, 1/125 Link to comment
LenMarriott 9 Posted March 16, 2004 Alec, Soft lighting was your friend here in helping to bring out all the colours as well as other details. A fine grab shot result. Good eye! Best, LM. Link to comment
jayme 0 Posted March 17, 2004 Beautiful colors and composition, not an easy task for sure, but you did a wonderful job! Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted March 17, 2004 Thanks Jayme, Roberto, Len, Cristina. It was a fun shot and I'm lucky to be there at the right moment. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted March 17, 2004 Alec, Very often in the right place at the right time. A fine catch. Colour / movement and very well framed - well done. Link to comment
richard_lalonde 0 Posted March 18, 2004 Hi Alec, I've seen a lot of your shots on PN. This is, for me, one of your best executed. The colours are outstanding. I love the order amidst the chaos. One item distracts me though. My eye seems to be drawn out of the picture at the very top center portion of it. I would prefer it more tightly cropped in that area, myself. What do you think?? Best regards. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted March 18, 2004 This is the kind of pageantry I only dreamed to capture in photos of the West Indian Parades in Brooklyn, NY. My highest congratulations! - best, Gary Link to comment
alecee 0 Posted March 18, 2004 Gary, Michael, Matty, appreciate your kind comments, the Sony F717 is wonderful for crowded action shots like in this parade. I just love the swivel action of the lenses which makes me 10 feet taller to catch all the action. Richard Lalonde. It's difficult to crop the top center. Although the opening looks distracting it makes the whole image lifelike as in an outdoor parade. A tight crop will also lose the detail in the surrounding wings Link to comment
