Helpful Posts: I spotted this gentleman sitting quietly with only a seagull for company. I liked to portray what I perceived was just that - reflection. I thought that B&W was the right medium for this picture. C&C most welcome.

Re: Quietly Reflecting
Nice, but if it is mines I probably rectify vertical and horizontal lines and move the subject a little on the right (by cropping or if I had room on the left on my file); It's just my suggestion

Re: Quietly Reflecting
The photo does a great job of capturing the moment. I love the positioning of gent and seagull. It takes a gentle soul to create and evoke this sense of reflectiveness. B&W was the right medium. Well done Ole.

Re: Quietly Reflecting
The background is a bit confused so I am also thinking about a slight crop from the right and top. But only a little, otherwise the scene will become too cramped.
