Re: PAW: People Portraits #29 - GDG
Interesting scenario, but not a particularly pleasing composition. To me, the half-chopped people in the background at left are a distraction, as is the crop on the head of the principal figure. Not among your best in my opinion. Paul On Aug 13, 2005, at 12:36 AM, Godfrey DiGiorgi wrote: http://homepage.mac.com/ramarren/photo/PAW5/29.htm Comments and critique always appreciated.

This photograph was made in Oxford during a gathering with my Pentax using friends ... I like it. I like the curve of the line of kids on the bottom and the curve of the sidewalk curb (or do they spell it kerb in England?). A little bit of motion blur on the fellow's hands really adds to what's going on; makes it a very dynamic photo. I like that he's a bit cut off, as that seems to focus my attention on the kids sitting down, and makes me notice how rapt they seem, watching the man. BTW, is he some sort of an instructor (it almost seems like this might be a school field trip or something), or are they watching a street performer of some sort? Wonderful photo. cheers, frank -- Sharpness is a bourgeois concept. -Henri Cartier-Bresson

He was a mime doing a street performance. There was a large crowd gathered, it was entertaining to find ways to make photographs that weren't just bustling people bumping into each other. :-) Godfrey
