>>4201627Thank you!
>>4201640I have a bit of distaste for the subject, but I also think that the scene is a bit busy, like the picture is a crop from a larger one of the whole stage, and I don't feel there's adequate separation between her and the drummer in the background. I like the contrast between her red hair and the blue of the stage, though.
>>4201650>>4201652As opposed to these, which look more like a profile shot of the musician. I like how there's just them and nothing else, and how the light focuses on their playing their instrument, whether it's strumming the guitar or singing into the mic.
>>4201800Thanks! How did you time the shutter? As for your picture, are those white specks in the sky stars? The white building catches the eye since it's the only brightly lit thing with detail, but it, and especially its tower, extends past the edge of the frame and leaves the picture feeling incomplete. Feels a bit like a distraction. I do like the streaks on the road from the long shutter. Is the general green glow from the Portra? When I used it, I found it tended to add a bit of gold to everything.
>>4201803That's interesting. I do see what you mean about the dynamic range from your picture.
When I was in the tropics, I found that the harsh sun tended to make everything very high contrast and my (digital) camera struggled to keep up with the shadows and bright areas.
>>4201814I like how many things are going on in this picture. The landscape in the background, the lines of the building and the old guy sitting there, and especially the graduation from green to red to grey. Centering the line of the building feels a bit controversial, but I see how it works balancing the man and the peak on either side of the frame.
>>4201654Wow an insect at 50mm equivalent distances.
>>4201732Guess my eye still needs more training. The lighting is quite pleasing, although the whole image is pretty flat.
Circular fisheyes are really fun to play with.
