Nice atmosphere -- it would spark different feelings for me if I knew if it were early morning or late afternoon. I don't know if that element of ambiguity was intentional or not...
I like the left to right moving feel this picture has -- good use of diagonal lines. If it had been possible to get him more in the left side of the picture, or been closer to him, that may have made a neat shot as well.
Nicely caught, I like the framing a lot even though it's a wide angle. The colors work great too (brown/purple). I think maybe if you zoomed in or cropped off the blue doors at the end it'd look even better -- just the 3 purple doors.
its funny... one of the things I read was that the subject should fill the frame, but I kind of enjoy him actually being small. .with no one around himit gives you the impression that he's alone.
Pretty repetition of those purple doors. Interesting subject, too. If it were my photo, I think I might have been tempted to try cropping way down to eliminate the non-purple doors on the right, which would make the subject a little more off-center, I think. Also, the fact that the door isn't parallel with the edge of the frame bothers me a bit.
This is really nice. I like how his rear end is hovering above the ground to keep his pants clean.... This is a posture I know well. He looks good against the pale wall with the pastel shutters.
Good photo. Could you have filled the frame with the subject more? (What is in his right hand? espresso?) I like the three purple doors, but could have lived w/o the slatted doors and brick. Photo 9 Creativity 7 People 8 total 8
This is gorgeous! Great composition, great camera angle, the lighting is lovely and soft bringing out all the texture of the surroundings, and you captured this guy in a great moment of concentration.
Great catch. I like how you got a little further down to his level. IMO, this photo would've had a lot more impact though if it had been cropped much tighter, to exclude the shutters in the back and have just teh walls and pinkish doors as the background. That would've also moved the scholar out of the center of the shot and made it follow the ROT.
Nice capture! I like this shot.. I would like it even better if the crop was a little tighter around the subjet.. but not TOO much tigher.. just enough to get rid of the doors at the end of the walk way.. :)
Took a shot very simular to this when I was in New Orleans recently. Good clarity, I would have liked it cropped so that the subject was not so centered.
