Thanks Stephen - where the suggestions HAVE been useful is when entering mono images for the salons/competitions. I have just looked back up at the version you posted and looks like a good-for-salon use. One thing I have learned a few years back is that competition photography and exhibition photography are two very different ball games. For the salons, the less is the better. Judges don't like what they see as 'clutter' as (point by Tom) it does distract. |

Perhaps I should have said at the beginning - this image is one of a series of life at Waterloo Station and not a 'stand-alone' image. Therefore all the 'crop, crop, crop' suggestions do not really answer my question. Since joining this group, I get the feeling that members see monochrome as a study of a particular subject totally out of its' context. I may be wrong here, but when I go for monochrome, I still believe the image should tell a story rather than just be a study of a person or object. Is this a cultural difference between the USA and the UK? |

I totally agree Diana - and Stephen is to be thanked for his input. I had not thought of using it as a stand-alone shot, but definitely both of you are correct. |

I was at the scene and she was looking up and down at her phone at regular intervals. However...............nice crop, but the group to the right was part of a story. As a stand alone image, what you have done looks good and could be considered for future use out of the context of the whole part of my Waterloo Station series as well as the fully peopled version the series for which I intended the image. Thanks for the input |
