Hi Boris, Honest and brutal, but also very (!) subjective this time. I love this kind of shots. It pulls you in. However, there are a few things that distracts from the effect, imo. The highlights become little doodles and introduce a bit of dizziness. I find that a bit... um... dunno if it's

I like the image. It's pretty and well balanced. However, this technique has been used a lot, and, in my opinion, the results don't vary enough to warrant more and more executions of this type. -- Original message -- From: Boris Liberman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi!

Yep, the technique is trite, but it certainly warrants experimentation, especially by someone who hasn't done it before. I also agree with Godders about this not being the best way to instill some dynamics into a photo. I don't think dynamic necessarily means movement. It can be emotional, or

Hi! No need to be brutal. It works as an interesting graphic image, but I'm not sure if it solves the issue you had in mind. Making photos that have a more dynamic quality doesn't necessarily mean producing a graphic effect with camera movement. Well, of course you're right. But I had to
