Just rediscovered this one. I'm really surprised this didn't do better. It was one of my high picks. Simply excellent sense of composition here, magnificent depth, terrifically moody shot.
Indeed deserved higher, I think this shot is excellent! There's a lot to be read from the person in the back like he doesn't like the rain! (maybe even boredom due to a rainy day?). Keep up the good work!
Ah, I wish I had just a fraction of the talent that is in this shot - composition, focus, color, mood, ... it's very, very nice. Thanks for entering this.
for some reason this image really hits me, and I really hope you do well. I like the slight green tint to the whole thing, and I also like the grain in the shadows. I don't really care for the crop, but thats just my opinion. Bumped up.
Interesting, dirty image - love the feel of it, very expressive. The areas you appear to have darkened seems a brutal effect - perhaps a touch heavy--handed? Not enough feathering? Nothing else in frame seems to go quite a black as those areas ... and the overlap with the umbrella makes it plainly editing. Outside of that reservation though, a much more intriguing image than most
Good composition and use of duotone, but blending of the dark umbrella panels and the dark background bothers me (and no, it's not my monitor, it's calibrated)
this looks verry good but that black part of it is weird and I don't understand it's purpose other than to hide something. I think a 3x2 crop at the top even if you only keep half the umbrella would be much better.
Beautiful image and nicely toned. The figure in the back is a nice touch and well composed. I do think the halo effect, especially around the bottom, is a bit overdone.
I'm gonna say this is Jason's... if i'm wrong... well then that's just humiliating. Great shot nonetheless (even if you aren't jason) --- great tones and great dodging and burning.
Very cool. Love the rich darkness. The contrast on the umbrella and the guy's hat and clothes is nice. Interesting perspective makes you take a second look.
