Reading The Sunday Paper

.......

classic - perfect composition showing everything we want to see and nothing more - beautiful tones - funny the guy from the newspaper posing for you.

CR: It is a kind of the russian "puppet in the puppet". My special interest is meant for the man (poster?) in the background :-)) REgards

RE: Complicated message I am not sure I understand.

 

Fact is I overheard part of the conversation of the man in the background. He lived in a submarine.

Howard- this is another Norman Rockwell type image. I love it! Great DOF, perfect composition too. Super.

Andrea, RE, Jayme thanks for making time to view.

Good candid scene of everyday life.the b/w choice here works well.

I was not sure how to describe. There are many pictures in one. Reminds me at the wooden puppets in Russia - you open one and the next appears ... Greetings, RE

Howard, nice d.o.f., composition, and good choice of b&w. RE is right about how the people in the newspaper's front page look kind of like puppets.

I like the concentration on reading the news paper,that really brings everything else out of focus.well shown situation

This image reminds of images in LIFE magazine of 1940s. Excellent DOF,composition and details. Original and attractive.

Have you tried your high-key effect on this one? I find the background a little distracting, although it's interesting to try and pick out details behind the man. I like the newspaper front page and the man's intent expression as he reads.

I actually like the background (sorry, Kim!) ... I feel that it adds context. I really like this a lot ... it's a great candid shot ... the picture on the newspaper and the man reading the paper seem to have similar expressions. I like it!
