Waiting …

    I spotted this guy last weekend while I was wandering around Dublin… I thought is was a “moment” :roll:

    I’d be interested in your comments and critique

    Hey nice one. I like the flow of the street, leads the eyes.
    Conversion to b+w is very well done also.

    Indeed. Nice DOF, good angle on it as well. Were you shooting telephoto with this? Otherwise I’m thinking he might have been a bit unnerved :)

    :lol: I was using a borrowed 70-300 zoom – not a great lens but lucky i had it at the time.

    Slightly different crop (more like no crop :? ) – What do you think ….. Better ?

    (?) I am seeing exactly the same crop there.
    *edit – ok I take it back there is a woman to the top right who is more visible in the 2nd one.

    :lol:

    Someone told me it bugged them ever so slightly seeing her chopped off the edge of the shot … I never even noticed at the time… But I re-worked it and weirdly enough – i do actually prefer this version… I suppose its because the brain is sensitive to seeing parts of people chopped off … Dunno.. am i mad :shock:

    Anyway – there you have it

    Your probably right – it does add to it I think – looks like maybe they have had a row and she has stormed off.

    well spotted shot and the second one is better as it could now tell a story of some guy ditched by his girl…or am i just a romantic..lol the only thing i would like to see worked on are the two highlights on the post things between the two figures as they are really bugging me and i cant stop looking at them….

    Better shape and flow to the second one, Lorraine, like the lads have said there’s also a better story to it. Good moment well caught.

    The second one.. has a lovely curve through the pic. Nice range of ones, love cobbled streets.

    I prefer the second one – the guy in the picture does lok like he spotted yo crouching to take his pic though :)
    I really like the pic !

    I like the second one as well. Good composition and tones.
    I think that it will be better if you blur the three white points.

    Definitely prefer the second myself. Lovely depth overall and a well captured moment. Might have been slightly better if you could have gotten even lower on the shot though IMHO. 8)

    I never saw those three dots before :shock:

    This guy was so lost in thought he never blinked when i took this or when I passed afterwards, I think I probably could have lay down in front of him to take it and he probably wouldn’t have noticed… he was lost in thought.

    Glad you like it
