favorites. As you noted, it's too contrasty, so there's no
separation between the black areas. This makes it difficult to
define what's happening here. The legs in the background are
also a bit of a distraction. The guy in the foreground almost
appears to have been pasted in. His position seems somewhat
incongruous in respect to the rest of the shot. All that being
said, it is totally unique. And that is a big plus. Overall,
it's interesting but not your best.
Hi Paul,
Many thanks for the comment. I have to say that your points are,
well... right. In a certain kind of way those are the same
critiques I move to that shot by myself from a technical (and
probably objective) point of view. Nevertheless I'm still very
fond of the result, and sometimes I feel that I'm not able to
achieve something of that kind anymore. If I try to, what comes
out is something artificial. If I don't, the technical training
of all these years almost blocks me from taking a shot so...
odd. Not by chance it came to mind when I read the thread about
the emotional involvement.
Ciao,
Gianfranco
