Hello there. This is a picture I took in Rovinj, Croatia this summer.

I like the different layers of interaction between the children. I

know that the feet are cropped in the foreground. I was very close and

already using a 17mm lens. So this was the widest possible for me in

this particular situation. Would be glad to hear your opinion on this

shot.

gorgeous. The two girls with their tongues out look very similar. are they sisters? Best, Sharif

This is one of the sujets that are classic for Cuba but probably not

present to many tourists - the counter of a "peso shop". Critiques

are very welcome. Regards, Sharif

I like this image for the natural relaxed expressions. Please give me

your feedback how you like this documentary travel image from Cuba.

Regrds,

Sharif

Please critique. Comments are very much appreciated.

I took this image of a classic Havana sujet, the waves braking at the

Malecon the day after Hurricane "Charley" hit the town. Please tell

me what you like or dislike about it. Regards, Sharif

This is one of the colorful examples of the pictures I took during my

recent trip to Cuba. Please drop me a comment what you think of it.

 

Kind regards, Sharif

I'd love to receive your thoughts of this image I took in Havana

early August this year. Regards, Sharif

I took this image during my 17 day travels across Cuba. I especially

like it for the colors and the way it captured a typical real life

street scene. I'd love to hear/read what you think of that image.

Kind regards, Sharif

I was strolling around in paris in November last year when I came

across this great looking couple. It's a pity that the other

bystanders are so close but - well, that's street photography. What

do you think? Please let me know what you like or dislike about the

photo. Regards, Sharif

sorry for my ignorance and my laziness not to look into the travel guide before naming this image. (I do not speak french). I hope this doesn't affect your judgement on the image :-)

Cheers, Sharif

Please let me know what you think of this picture. It appears a

little tilted to the right, because I concentrated on the portal of

the church which I framed upright. The other parts of Sacre Ceurs are

tilted due to the perspective. I like this shot for the contrast of

the deep blue sky and the bright white of the building itself. (no

polarizer used).

Sharif

I took this candid shot in the Metro in Paris. The couple was so

absorbed by themself that they did not seem to recognize all the

surrounding - and in this way represented what love is all about. I

tried to capture that feeling by choosing a long shutter speed to

blur the departing train. Unfortunately the lady on the right stepped

into my frame but since she is blurred too, I believe the image still

works. Please let me know your opinion. Regards, Sharif

Your constructive critique is very welcome. I hope you enjoy this

candid shot I took on the Annex Flea Market in Manhattan. Regards,

Sharif

What a funny picture. It made me smile.

What an interesting perspective!

Hi Ahiyan, hi Jim,

thanks for your kind komments. I did not have to correct for the perspective since I was able to hold the camera vertically without any tilt. If the street would have been totally even then half of the picture would have been the street. Since the street was aslope most of the frame was filled with the houses.

 

Regards,

Sharif

Thanks for your comments. Marcel I agree - at least I should have cropped to leave the doves out of the frame when post processing.

 

Michelle, thank you for your high rating. I am glad that you enjoy the picture!!

A wonderful portrait - real life, not posed full of emotion. I hope that little lady felt better soon!

 

Cheers,

Sharif

The photo was taken in April or May 2003 in Lisbon. I believe the

street photographed lies in the district called "Alfama" but I am not

sure. Please feel free to drop me a comment. I am always ready to

learn more. I hope you enjoy the picture.

 

Regards,

Sharif

Hi Cnaan,

thank you for your nice comment and your sharing of experiences. I actually can't remember the photo on which I recommended changing the film medium. I believe that I made that comment on a Fuji Superia picture. It may be personal taste but I hate the skin tones that Superia produces -and I know what I am talking about since I used the Superia for quite some time because it costs only 60 % of Kodak Film in Austria - however the reproduction of skin tones is much better by Kodak film in my opinion.

 

Cheers,

Sharif

Hi again Suzie, this is a very strong picture!! Definitely the one I like most in your 9/11 folder.

Very nice backs! Well exposed. I especially like the skin tones what the light makes the hair look. If the feet were in the frame it would have been a truly excellent shot - in my honest opinion. But its very good and full of atmosphere as it is. Congratulations.

This is a very sensual portrait, and technically excellent in every respect! Congratulations!

Excellent idea, excellently done!!
