| Thanks paulbtlw. Good comments. I did paly with the background a bit, but this way it had the least amount of grain. |

OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy):
Positives: One of those I have chosen to comment on in this commentary series which probably has wider mainstream appeal. I really like this image, it has a simplicity to it and this simplicity is manifested in many ways - the subject matter, the composition, the edit - all uncomplicated, unfussy and elegant. I like that there is some grain in the background and how the motion unsharpness challenges the clarity of the image. I believe it to be all the better for the imperfections.
Critical stuff: I think the grey of the background might have been manipulated in one direction or the other - I think either lighter or darker may have offered something more compelling.
Overall: This is a fine image which deserves to do well. |
