Against the Wall

The McCracken Tilt strikes again.I liked this girl's hair. She was kind enough to let me photograph it!

 

Feedback Appreciated.

I like her attitude, the pose and the fact that she's relax. A lot more relax than some of your other models.. and the clothing is very cool, young and loose. the light seems to be natural and coming from above a lil bit too harsh. (i prefer to take the shot and forget about light if I dont have any choice)....great capture.

David, again with the tilt! When was the last time you had your eyes checked? (Just kidding. I like the way you look at life.)

Angel, It is interesting that you say she looks relaxed. This photo was taken within a few minutes of meeting her. There was a language problem and we had difficulty talking to each other. However, it seems photography is a universal language. She really was a fun girl to be with. I am hoping to photograph her again.

 

Owl, I usually see the world with a tilt. Normally it is from a much lower vantage point....... the gutter!

 

Thanks you both!

And the "Tilt" returns and none too soon. Placement of the lovely lady conforms to The O'Meara Philosophy. The model has a perfect facial expression and the texture of the wall works very well. Well done again my Celtic friend.

Owen, I may be getting old before my time. Remind me of The O'Meara Philosophy.

 

Thanks for your kind words. I like this one myself.

I like it VERY MUCH!!

Susan, I like your comment VERY MUCH!!

It amounts to a theory of placement of the model to conform with the Golden Rectangle in addition to adding a somewhat disturbing visual element. My use of the term "Disturbing" has nothing to do with aesthetics but more to do with optics. The Tilt is an example that you use well.

 

It also has to do with cropping some part of the figure out of the frame with the sense of motion either in or out of the frame. Above all, avoid the center, at least most of the time for the focal point of interest.

 

Lastly, a beautiful woman never hurts.

David, that is very well composed.The diagonal posture of the woman echoed by the diagonal tiled wall is very clever.The light in general, and on her left hand and hip, gives it a 3d form. very nice work. Pnina

Pnina, Thanks very much. This is one of these photos that I am particularly fond of myself. It is always good to know that others like it. Thanks for taking the time.
