Thanks Shel. Good suggestion. Paul On Apr 30, 2005, at 4:19 PM, Shel Belinkoff wrote:
I love the "head-to-head comparison and the somewhat similar expression on
the two faces. The pic may be stronger by loosing about 1/4 or so of the
image off the bottom, allowing the viewer to concentrate more on the faces
and heads. I just moved the image up and down in the browser window to see
how it would look in that way. To my eye cropping a little above the
yellow tip of the child's color above his head and a little below the
zipper on the dad's sweater yields the strongest image. It almost looks
like a square crop, and you;ve got the added impact of the diagonal running
from the child through the father.

I spent an hour walking around downtown Birmingham, Michigan this afternoon with the *istD and the thirty-year-old Vivitar Series 1 70/210/3.5. This snap was shot at f3.5, 1/1500, ISO 400, 210mm. I'm growing quite fond of this ancient manual focus zoom. http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3322436
