Re: Paradox
Great eye! This is a wonderful image but, IMO it could benefit slightly from a crop image left to eliminate everything to image left of the mirrored cabinet doors.

Re: Paradox
Well spotted. Nice juxtaposition, but why did you title this image "paradox"? I think I must be missing something.

Re: Paradox
Thanks Dem... I intended to convey the contradictions in the characteristics of the subjects.. for eg. Commando being aggressive and violent while Buddha being non violent. I hope i have been able to explain it right.. Originally Posted by dem

Re: Paradox
Hi Ashish,
Didn't I see this image in colour recently?
I prefer this mono version.
I might try a vignette though; just to assist keeping the viewer's gaze within the composition and not drifting out of frame in the few places where there are brighter surfaces adjacent to the edge of the frame.
Well spotted indeed, Dave

Re: Paradox
Thanks Dave... I have not uploaded a colour version. I had applied slight vignette but i guess a little more would be more effective. Originally Posted by Dave Humphries

Re: Paradox
This is totally wonderful.
The Buddha and teh woman flanking the picture of Aahnold.
Because the cabinets on either side, especially the one with water, and the desktop are all relatively bright, it is easy for my eye to wander off.
You could darken all of those so while they still seem natural they no longer attract the eye.
Again, quite wonderful picture, surely one to retain for a portfolio.
