Got this shot at my blues summers school, 90 old blokes discussing guitars and string gauges, nerdy or what !
Had to add this guy he was really great, I like the life times experience on his face. Tried these in colour but they just don’t work for me, comments if you like, I am going through a black and white phase.
Hi there,
Yeah totally agree with PD_BARBS, second shot is great, subject really stands out. Might be just my screen, but I would try and sharpen his face and make some of those lines just a little more visible. Although this might not work if there is some high ISO noise present.
Curious how you metered this, spot?
Nuthin’ wrong with guitars and string guages Bev, sounds exactly like my cup of tea…
As mentioned, second one’s definitely a keeper; excellent framing of your subject and
a lovely conversion to mono. The first image is let down a little by the intrusiveness of
the microphones, but it’s not terrible either. Looks like a great bunch of characters to
photograph…Rob.
Thanks for the kind comments, I think I may have found my subject matter at last !
ssheridan, I spot metered, 1/80 at f4 iso 800, quite a lot of noise as there was very little visable before conversion, in colour it looked dreadful so I did a conversion in Lightroom, my programme of choice at the moment. A photographer friend who introduced me to Lightroom suggested I print out of it, any thoughts?
