With $1k 10-megapixel bodies popping up like daisies, it's likely to
be a long rest.
I could not resist a bit more...

Halo is greatly reduced by so doing, of course, but It's difficult to
be certain after looking at it for awhile.
I'm open to any suggestions you may care to offer. Please keep it
dumb, for my sake. :))

Like the 'mood' of this one a lot -
the unusual pose of the bull makes it,
and its position relative to the fence and skyline just seems right to me.
A car windshield instead of a graduated filter...
great idea - patent it quick - in a range of colours :-)

I like the foreground detail of the larger version more -
but the edges of the barn now have a distracting pale halo effect that looks
a bit Photoshoppy, so I prefer it without that.
I'm guessing you are scanning bw negs into graphics
The left side is very dramatic, but, over time, the cropped left
side version is more in keeping with my file of compositional rules.
Requesting your opinions.
What's the point in having a file of rules if you can't break them? ;-)

Hopefully this is not a discouraging PESO -
I think it has some obvious flaws, but would like others' opinions.
This is from my first ever roll of bw film (Ilford FP4) through an original
Spotmatic with the standard 55mm Takumar -
So plenty of grain then :-)
I'm not the best at scanning negs
I, also, realize I'm allowed to chose the one I like for my wall.
Where ever did you get that idea?

I think we also need a photograph of your wall, so that we can judge the
proportions of the available gap G

I prefer the first - great hair.
Hope you're speaking to one another again
. I think that would still have conveyed effectively the
dilapidation of the environment and the sense of a dull walk in the
rain.

I initially thought the man was menacing the woman,
but looking more closely he seems to have a kind of patience or even an odd
form of chivalry.
The surrounding people don't quite work for me, in the first photo.
I dislike intensely the patronising looks on the faces of the couple
top-left.
Has a timeless quality - Dickensian or Shakespearian - in a way quite
moving.
Only the logo on the boots really dates it to now.
(Amazing that even this guy does not escape a corporate brand.)
Wish I could read all of the plaque behind -
it looks as though it should be proclaiming some

Just saying Hi, from Yorkshire UK.
Thought I might join your rather prolific list for so long as my mailbox can
stand it.
I have been taking photos for a couple of months - no idea what brought it
on. Some kind of madness.
I mostly enjoy using my father's old Pentax Spotmatic F with a broken
tight a crop to get rid of it,
obviously.
Unknown clutter at left, while color complimentary, is a bit
distracting.
Wall, jug and stand are very nice elements.
You didn't ask for comments, so hope OK.(?)
