If you're looking to pick up something by Alex Webb, you can't go wrong 
with The Suffering of Light. It's miraculous.

Thanks. I like the compositional balance. The post on the right balances the 
seated guy, and the top right cloud balances the upright of the groyne in the 
lower left corner. There is even spacing between them all, and that very strong 
diagonal which continues to the point where the sea meets the sky, so I can't 
see any way to change it without knocking it off balance, to my mind.

Ohh, I like this! The high contrast row of pillars make it work I think.

My first reaction was that I'd do a slight crop, leaving the guy in the air
dead center. But then I realized he already is centered! I think what
bothers me slightly is the empty space on the right of the frame. Have you
tried cropping the whole right side so you don't see the end of the row of
pillars or the pole with the circular thing at the end?

Anyway I'm nitpicking. It's a great shot!

I took a workshop with them in 2008 in Cadiz, in the south of Spain. Not
only they are super talented but also they are great people, those were
some really pleasant few days making photos, getting Alex's help with the
editing, and eating great food.

I follow Alex Webb and Rebecca Norris Webb on Instagram, watching photos posted 
from their new book "Brooklyn, the city within". I already had three of their 
books and today received a copy of Brooklyn. 

There's something miraculous and mysterious about Webb's photographs and the 
way he composes - I wish I could do it, which I suppose is why I love his work 
so much, and love to analyse the compositions. The book is thoroughly 
recommended, as is their Instagram if you do such modern things.

Hello all,
I am barely following conversations here, but perhaps some of you
would like to follow on this interesting situation and artwork in
progress, that Jelena Mijić and me are doing. Also, Ann Sanfedele said
she might try and call for an NYC meet-up, since I am here and we
never met in person.

So, the work is actually using ebay as its integral part
https://www.ebay.com/itm/152764469279?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649=true
so follow there if interested.

And the meetup will be in early November. Btw. if anybody us near
Stanford on Nov 2nd, you could come listen to me talk about Belgrade
http://events.stanford.edu/events/716/71665/ (rsvp needed i think).

Also, if you are in NYC today, and free, come listen to Jelena talk
about her art at Residency Unlimited near Carol Gardens in Brooklyn -
she is not part of this list, but is mentioned here, and her work is
very interesting, as is the other collective from Slovenia, which will
also be presenting https://www.facebook.com/events/871073039728879/

Re: 3 Pesos - from the Brooklyn botanical garden

2016-05-13 Thread Ken Waller

ann, water lilies are the best of the three IMO, but they could use a little 
more distance from the bottom and LH edge - either that or a deliberate crop 
of the lilies at those edges - as nice as it is it comes across as a quick 
snap, not a thought out image - just my thoughts :+)

Love the first! Great eye, ann. All those  openings and closings, train

Re: 2 PESOS: Waiting for the R train in Brooklyn and skies over 4th Ave with ...PENTAX lens

2009-11-04 Thread ann sanfedele


sorry for the misleading url...
glad the straing links are short enough however

Here is a real TINY URL for the first pic -- the R train one
for those who came in late...
GOOD TINY URL...
http://tinyurl.com/yjlj3e7

Re the comments for all of youse (so far)- The sky shot was just a 
grab of some lovely clouds that

were surprising to see...

as to the R train -- sometimes you just get shit lucky...

I was sitting on the corresponding bench on my side of the tracks to the 
person (yes, really a person there) -
I sat so I could get all the elements in  the near wall, the dark, the 
opening where you can see the other bench
and took one shot before the person was there... then I saw him sit down 
then  the train came This was one time manual focus was really 
essential... I used the hyperfocal distance , braced myself on the bench 
arm, in fact, I may have had the camera on the bench arm when I took 
this one, for a tripod. I hoped I'd capture the movement of the train 
and that the guy on the bench wouldnt move... when you look at it really 
closely he's a bit soft focus.


Aside to Mark -- I did do a bw and liked this better something more 
grungy and eerie in the color version -
But as you thought it was cracking good it may turn up submitted for 
the book :-)


Thanks for all the feedback, gang, I do appreciate it .

It's a typo..in a way. Spell Check let me down or I didn't offer it for 
checking.
I intended, stirs as in stirring me emotionally.
You're certainly right, Ann. Absolutely no explaining taste. It's out of the 
viewer's control. If it doesn't happen for the viewer, it's the viewer's loss.

I especially like the tiles.  Is that a photo of a guy, or an actual
photo of a guy through a hole in the wall?  Either way, he makes the
shot!

Really love the 1st one, Ann.  That's a great shot.  Excellent exposure and 
composition.  Everything seems just right to me--especially the timing.  The 
sky is nicely dramatic in the second one.   Very nice there, but to my eye 
the 1st one upstages the 2nd one.  Cheers, Christine

Very interesting shot. Is that guy sitting there just a reflection?

My first reaction was that this shot would work well in black and
white, but keeping it in color that is almost black and white, really
makes it a lot more interesting. good job.

I'll answer you and Frank together...   (1) it is a real person on a 
bench on the outbound side of the tracks
(2) Yeah, Chrsitine, I think the first shot is better and a more 
serious shot,  but I'm fond of the pretty light one
because I was so glad to get to see that much of the sky on a Sunday 
afternoon in the city.


Very glad you both like the first one
