Harsh lighting.

good capture of expression... it would look great with a solid black background, the other person is distracting

good emotion, light and clarity in the singers face.

Ah yes, she is into it. Bumping up.

It's a good image... However, I would like to see more... to really sell it.
Good Luck.

This is just beautiful, very expressive. Only down side is that person behind her, but the DOF dealt with that effectively. Nice idea with the frame as well, remind me to copy that.... :-)

Love the emotion! Lose the inside line border and this would be even better!

Emotional and excellent opera image..good isolation of subject with this dof..color and composition are very good.

With a shot like this you miss the elements that really tell you that you are looking at a performing opera singer. Apart from that I like the way the foreground singer is lit, it just needs more expression on her face I think. I'm uncertain about the background. While it is excellently thrown out of focus, the background person is so bright that she is distracting.

nice dof. expressive
08/18/2005 04:06:51 PM
beautifully done. great focus, and the background singer/dancer is a good touch. I like that he's thrown out of focus. you captured the emotion well. 10!

nice emotion.

Good stuff, but for me, the silver border inside the photo doesn't work. I dont know, its like your trying to constrain the picture w/ the border, but stuff is exceeding it, I dont know if that makes sence, but it just doesn't work for me. I like the photo a lot though, just w/o the border
08/17/2005 04:00:39 PM
i take it this is opera, maybe? not sure.. its not obvious in the photo to me
08/17/2005 01:44:19 PM
great capture of face and expression, nice blurring of individual behind her....
08/17/2005 01:18:35 PM
Wow, I'd love to photograph an opera. Shame the performer in the background is so tight against the performer in the foreground, I'd have stepped to the left to seperate them. Not a fan of distracting borders. Lovely catchlights.

This is a very "pretty" shot. Nice lighting, nice DOF.
08/17/2005 02:54:53 AM
Beautiful capture!

Nice lighting - great clarity and her eyes are so sparkly.
