Quick, lend them your camera. They look like they need a hobby right away!

You are right, they are bored, which leads to a boring photo. Good color, good focus, O.K. background, for the situation. Maybe a bit too much flash, move back a step and try again. * Say something funny/silly/outrageous next time!!

Hard to fake boredom. Great shot. I keep wondering - will they go out together again ? In my top 3.

The feeling of boredom is expressed well. This is too much of a snapshot. Flash is way to hars. What's with the strings at the top of the picture?
05/28/2002 12:53:00 PM
Yep. They look bored. You have some red-eye going on here.
05/28/2002 12:33:00 PM
Seems real snap shooty, like not too much thought went into this. You need to work on your framing and composure: like the drinks don't need to be there, and there's a slight tilt to the photo that shouldnt be.

I don't quite understand why you submitted this photo. There's nothing noteworthy about it. Although it did bore me, just like the couple posing.
05/28/2002 08:51:00 AM
but are they bored, or bored of each other ?
05/27/2002 04:09:00 PM
lol this shot struck me funny. It's done well, clear, clean and good color. Maybe cropping the top fringe and bottom glasses out would of helped. Still it's nice work.

you've got to be kidding
05/27/2002 02:29:00 PM

A slice of real life.

I'd like this photo if it wasn't taken with a flash. I don't like the washed out faces and redeye.
05/27/2002 01:39:00 AM
Yep, they are. Good separation of subjects from background. Skin tones range from washed out to a bit blue. The orange lamp in the background adds color, but didn't distract my eyes.
05/27/2002 12:56:00 AM
I think the flash hurts this one a bit. A slower shutter speed may not have been possible though. The shot might be more interesting taken at a different angle, maybe from the outside of the booth looking in - kind of a dual profile shot
05/27/2002 12:24:00 AM
I know that guy!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL
He looks more like "don't take my photo tweed" but she definitely looks bored.
05/27/2002 10:14:00 AM
These two must have met online and this is their first date :) I have been there and done that... lol..
