the photography thread
Re: the photography thread
I am not really a fan of computer enhancement of the image but I have been playing around with this image this evening and tried to keep things relatively simple....

Thank you Fran. I invested a considerable amount of time and efforet in my photography in days gone by. This thread, I must admit, is slowly reigniting my interest; and I know that I am not the only one in this position. It is good to be able to display one's work without the inane comments of so called expert "judges" which were a constant irritation to me in my club photography days.

Re: the photography thread
What I liked about this one was the way that the imposing pillars dominate the person and also haw the person is, in a way, echoed in the top left hand corner. The composition was deliberate but I was constantly looking for the appropriate angle and was afraid that my presence would make the guy uneasy and that he would get up and leave before I took the shot. I only got one frame before I left him be.

Re: the photography thread
Great work Fergus. I particularly like #3 with the columns and the fella reading - very classic look and holds interest excellently. I agree on #1 to an extent - but you have lovely light there. I wonder if taking the processing further and giving it a holga look with extreme (dark) vignetting would be another way to present it.
I've been having much better than expected results with a pano pinhole camera. So although the negs are too big for my enlarger, I decided to contact print them. It took a session or two to get to grips with it, particularly dodging and burning blind! Anyway, I finished them up and dry mounted them yesterday. I'm fairly happy with the results - these are bound for various print exchanges I'm involved in.

Thank you for the suggestion Fran; I may indeed give that a try.Fran wrote: I agree on #1 to an extent - but you have lovely light there. I wonder if taking the processing further and giving it a holga look with extreme (dark) vignetting would be another way to present it.
