This realy looks like a scene from some movieor something......I´ll just sit here and wait for the next frame........Great shoot , fits perfectly into the challenge
A pity you didn't have critical focus on this. Use of sharpening filter is too obvious and not especially effective anyway in this case. A very evocative moment.
I love the expressions. Wish I could see them a little bit more. I also wish the curved thing on the lower left wasn't there. Nice capture though. I like the highlight on the back of his head.
This capture seems to be screaming for monochrome. Sadness=black and white doesn't it? Something about the shot does not feel candid or right and I cannot put my finger on it. Perhaps it is the positioning of the couple's hands. I cannot call this staged, there is a level of emotion here that is conveyed, but there are also some high quality distractions that keep me from focusing on them. The background is too in focus or too colorful, the highlights of the railings in the center destructive, the silvery curved item in the left corner is questionable and something hovers above the hood. Holding some CD cases up to the screen, I see that there would be a solid two point gain from this viewer if the crop were much tighter, eliminating that silver thing and the right-side distractions. 5
