| This is one shot where selective desaturation really feels like cheating to my mind. Without it, your subject would presumably have merged into the background so much more, and separating it by use of a processing technique (read 'trick') feels like laziness to me. Also this is a very straightforward documentary shot - it tells me very little, asks me to find my own interest in the object, rather than showing me yours. It's taken from head high, it neatly includes all of the subject, and doesn't communicate anything of your feelings, likes, dislikes, interests in this subject, and it isn't such a very unfamiliar type of thing that it's simple presence is going to have impact of itself. |
