Mirror reflection - C & C are welcome

[Tejal]

During the month of Dec 2014, I had visited a woolens market. Over there I have tried to capture some mirror reflections, which I am posting here.

Kindly share your C & C on these.

Regards,

Tejal

Dear Tejal,

The general background area is a bit on the soft side with #1, Tejal, which I find slightly distracting. Possibly more blurred would be better? And maybe a bigger mirror under those conditions?

The other two work fine for me.

I have problems with the slightly out of focus subject image left of #1. I might think of just cropping him out and trying for the mirror as the subject surrounded by the merchandise. The reflection in the mirror is an image in itself...



I love the other two just as they are... There is a very subtle interaction between the boy's eyes and the man in image #2.

Is that your wife in #3?

But Richard, I like the guy there in #1 because he seems to be part of the environment too, I feel that his expression there is like looking at the mirror's image too. Cropping it off makes a better shot I can admit that but the essence was cropped off too in the process.

Tejal...I like the first two images the way they are. In #2, I feel like the man in the mirror is looking after the little boy. I do not like #3 much because I think when I was more camera ignorant I tried to do that many time in my powder room...didn't get too far...

Interesting concept...we have all heard the advice when working a shoot, "turn around, you
might be missing a better shot". You're capturing that as well.

Thanks for your feedback. I think for #1, I should have tried to catch everything in focus. Here it seems, in my attempt to just focus the mirror part, i failed to get a better shot. Mirrors, well, they have kept for the customers and it was an open area.

thanks for your feedback. I think i should have taken everything in focus by keeping F/8 to 9. But your crop is also working quite well.
