thiszme 0 Posted June 10, 2006 I would really appreciate some feedback on this shot. I have done nothing to the photo. The boots are exactly the way I found them. I don't think I even adjusted my position after seeing the boots. The fraid strings, the split down the side if the right boot, the fact that they are still wet and the concrete under the boots is also moist but everything else is dry. There are many great photographers here on PN. Lets say you were there instead of me. Would you have taken the shot? If yes, would you have moved left or right? Maybe a tighter shot of the boots? My thought was that beause the boots were placed in the corner that would help to create a focal point on the boots. I really want to improve my photography so all of your comments and critiques are welcome even if you hate it then say it. Sorry for the long intro! Thanks. Jeffery Link to comment
cedric lacombe 0 Posted June 10, 2006 When I first saw the image I thought it would be more attractive with a tighter crop. The black bars and the street in back are really too much. I'm glad you realized it and wrote it down. The tight crop will not disturb the lines that creates a focal point. the three main lines still pint at the boots (Photo). I think that this is a good subject. I like street shots like this. If you wanted to post-edit it, I would suggest a black and white transformation to add to the message and the subject. Keep your eyes open for other good subjects like this one! Cedric. Link to comment
julioamendoza 0 Posted June 10, 2006 Poor Boots; title your work. I am also learning. The photo is good to me; you can see it by the ratings gotten so far. Yes, a closer look would have been better, which in turn would crop the busy top side. Some times, depending on the subject, it helps getting low to the same level of it. In this case, getting low to take the shot from closer to the floor. Hope this helps! Link to comment
thiszme 0 Posted June 10, 2006 Hey thanks for the comments. I too thought that the top of the picture was too busy. I should have tightened up in the original shot. I also agree with getting down lower to the ground. Thanks again. Jeffery Link to comment
