That's a bit weird. It's quite clever, with the reflection, and I like the colours. I think it's a little split though - my attention is divided between the actual people and their reflections, and there is a lot of space in-between. Interesting though. And weird.:)Quote:

One tiny little thing: all the top - kind of a rectangle - should be cloned and made green, don't you think so ?:rolleyes:
You could also open the shadows on his face. Just a tad.
I suspect his skin is rather different from her's.
Thank you for posting:) -
1st September 2010, 10:40 AMSahilRe: Malaysia / BorneoGreat shot, Antonio. I have had this kinda shot in my mind, BUT with a slight change.. EVERYTHING being the same (minus the background may be) the eyes towards the camera. He is giving the perfect naughty/notorious look. I mean face in the very same direction & just with the eyes, pointed towards the camera. Good shot again.Quote:

The tells. The second and fourth from camera left posts are identical, as is the section below them, including the tufts of grass in the seam from the walk to the vertical block below the post. As is the water on either side of the post you cloned in. I can see the irregularity of the water where you cloned it back in above the rail. The post between the gentlemen is still there under the left side gentleman’s coat. All in all a nice job, looks to me. Seams all line up nicely.
Am I anywhere close? -

Cute 'eh?
The kid was tooooo camera shy. His was being ridden on cycle when this shot was taken, that too with manual focusing.

2nd September 2010, 05:54 PMSahilRe: Three directionsHey Antonio, what an interesting shot. I like how the three people are looking 'Keenly' in different directions. As if there is something very serious going where they are looking, & yet nobody is bothered/interested in other's area of interest. I don't know if I am conveying my message properly or not.Quote:

The only problem I see in this shot, the arm of the woman which is not in the frame. -

A woman disinterested in what the young lad is up to right in front of her, maybe she knows him?
He has brand new strap of a laptop bag slung over his shoulder, he looks very clean, probably educated and in a good job.
It has been shot in a warm country which is prone to heavy rainfall - and it is a tourist area I believe.
In a real leap of imagination: is that a menu wedged above the phone? Perhaps the guy works in, or owns, a restaurant and is awaiting customer telephone orders, for collection or delivery?
I wonder what others might deduce for this scenario??? :D
I think that was fun, how did I do? (when you've had more guesses of course :D )

4th September 2010, 03:37 PMAntonio CorreiaRe: Three directionsThank you again Sahil. :) No it is not a multi exposure shot but it is a superposition of two photos.Quote:

I have selected him and pasted in the middle of the image. Of course it is not a perfect work. I don't know how to do it perfectly but I am learning. If you look closely you will see some wrong selection areas.
I post here the two original photos. I wanted to fill the middle area, you know... :)

Thank you Dave for your interpretation of the "composition".Quote:

This is not my usual way to photograph. I usually like better compositions with more care and attention. However, this can/could be a different way to take pictures. :)

Now lets go back to Terry from Missouri USA :):)
Hello Terry. I have done this video where you will be able - I hope - to understand what I have done in this shot with the "displacement" of the two men.
Sorry for my bad spoken English, my own voice, my hesitations all the time and so forth but I am doing the best I can. And I am sure that you, as native English person, will understand what I say. :)
Thank you for asking :) You made me do it again as I have done in the shot of the three persons. :)
NOTE - I have to go and see that horse video slooowly and learn from elsewhere also
- Problems to up load video - Later I will post it. Excuse me :)
