39 Feb 24 Comment I especially like simplistic/minimal images and this one is very strong. Don't know if that makes sense, simplistic and strong, anyway, great image. Wall hanger as far as I am concerned. It works very well in B&W and I prefer the fence being less in the b&W than it is in the color. Would not change a thing. Feb 13th
39 Feb 24 Comment Great catch, the light on its shoulder and face is great, did you add it or was it natural? I too think there could be more room on the right, but maybe a crop from the top and a bit from the bottom to change the format from square would take care of it. I tried that and for me it works well. The posture, movement and non-attention to you makes it look very natural. I think the conversion to B&W makes the image stronger than the color version.

39 Feb 24 Comment I think the conversion works very well and makes the subject stronger. The lines created by the machinery leading to the head frame creates a good composition. I think the two trees on either side of the head frame help to frame the head frame. Woo, is that too many frames? I am going to disagree a little with the others, I think the right side tree keeps the viewer in the image and I also think the head frame is an important part of the story. The clouds are a bonus.

To put more emphasis on the main subject I might bring out more of the shadows. A thin boarder might help bring out more overall tones.		 Feb 13th
39 Feb 24 Comment A very interesting story, two older people on the same bench, ignoring each other while other people walk by and ignore them both. There is very good detail and tones in the subjects. Other than the legs upper right the people in the background add to the story of the street.

I agree with removing the legs in the upper right. I might also add a little light to his face and blur or darken the background some to bring out the main subjects. I might also cut the size of the boarder, I think it takes away from the subjects.		 Feb 13th
39 Feb 24 Comment I have been here, but my shots were from the same side but a different angle, more to the left. I like the great clouds behind the lighthouse as they tend to pull the eye to the lighthouse. I agree with the others on the noise, but that is easy to correct if you want. For me the rocks in the foreground are bright and more than needed, they tend to command most of the attention. I might add more light to the lighthouse as it is a but flat. I think you have everything needed to make this a strong image. Feb 13th
39 Feb 24 Comment At this point there is not a lot I can say that has not been covered by everyone else. I agree, it is a very good composition and there is much to work with. The conversion to B&W does tend to flatten the image but there is plenty to work with as shown by Kathryn. You have the image, all you need to do is work on the tones in selective areas, mostly in the trees. Feb 13th
