Retirement Days

6/5

Howard, you are great in B/W. Contrast & tones are presented so well.

very good this B&W...!!!

Wonderful detail and composition. I wonder how sepia would look to give it a little warmth. The shadow and light are excellent. I just want those old guys (I'm fastly approaching their age) to appreciate some warmth! LOL

I like the way the light and shadows are enhanced in this composition. I can picture it in sepia, too, but I also like b&w.

Great and perfect work!

CR: Fine untidily! (And you dont need the written permission of the actors too :-))

Very nice. Lots of detail with very pleasing perspective and shadow/light interplay.

It looks sharp all over with lots of detail, Howard. Not sure how you pulled it off, but the composition works even with so much elements in it! ^_^

Hey Howard, good stuff! What I enjoy about so much of your work (in general) is that your shots really 'draw the viewer in.' I really feel that I can 'smell the trees.' As Wilson says 'there's a lot going on in the shot' but it all hangs so well together to tell the whole story. Retirement? I'd rather die first! Great stuff Howard.

 

Warm regards.

One last thing! I see there's the 'new you' on your bio page! Nice to know where you live as well - will check out your area on the Net a little later.

Howard that is not only a good image, but you have captured the atmospher of old age.The shadows are very well connected to the figures of the old people, very good capture.

 

And your new portrait...history as well! Pnina

This one captures the mood very well...the men, their posture, the mature trees, the shadows, everything melds very well.
