Hi,
Grabbed these in capetown in serious midday sun, but a shot of Fill Flash helped. Not easy to flash someone and not be noticed :-)

C&C most welcome!

LoGillParticipantHey Merv :)
Welcome.. I LOVE the first shot .. what a face:) I’d be tempted to bring out a bit more contrast but I love it ..
L
ExpresbroParticipantWOW!! I seriously looooove these shots!!
That first shot is brilliant in my opinion. Agree with Lorraine re: a tad more contrast…but is a mighty image.
More please :D
mervifwdcParticipantRobMemberFantastic stuff Merv. Well impressed with your conversions. Great composition
in every shot too. Nice work indeed. Natural models, every one of your subjects…Rob.
ExpresbroParticipantI’m sure there’s a book in there somewhere…or at least a mini exhibtion…
really great shots!
ciaranParticipantMerv,
I know you didn’t ask for comparison, but that first one really is the pick of the bunch.. it’s the perfect expression. So will we be seeing this a the competition any time soon?
mervifwdcParticipantI would love to enter it in a competition, I’m just not sure if “playing music” qualifies as “work” which I believe the next theme is. If I could use “playing music” as a work theme, I’ve a good few gig type shots. Probably pushing the bounderies there.
Also, Is the next competition color or b&w?
And c&c is most welcome! All feedback much appreciated, especially the “you could improve it by…..” type comments.
Merv.
RobMemberThat final one is a stunner Merv. You’ve got a fantastic eye.
Really really well done.Rob.
wavydaveMemberJimmyGParticipantmgstParticipantmervifwdcParticipantThanks for the kind comments! Much appreciated.
In a PM, it was suggested to try the guitar guy as a square, and I like it. Thanks Lorrainne!
And out of interest, I thought I’d show a color and b&w of the same shot. It also shows off his expensive guitar!
Merv.
GrahamBParticipantI want that guitar – nice pics – really nice.
Love the first one. You can really feel the energy the guy
is putting in.Still want the guitar though
mervifwdcParticipantThey sell them in a market in an area called “the waterfront” in Capetown. :-)
And they do sound good!Merv.
