This was taken with a 350D which is a recent step up for me. I used to shoot film with an OM10.
One of the things I notice most with the change from one camera to the other is that the light metre reading is different and I don’t always get the effect I’m aiming for particular where evening light is concerned.
Very nice silhouette, crisp image with subtle colours very well captured. Personally, I would crop from the right to remove that rock/disembodied head from the picture; it’s just a little distracting and does nothing for the image. Otherwise I really like it.
Rob, I take your point about the buoy. If I were going to do that, I would probably crop all around because I like the proportions to this shot.
Roberto, I’ll do a little experimentation per your recommendation although I remain to be convinced that it’s the way to go. The light is already a little special in my view.
The light is great and it captures the tenderness between the father and child really well. Rather than crop the right I might be tempted to clone out the buoy as it is a bit distracting and the eye can’t help but wander to it. It is also fairly large, the buoy I mean,
