Challenge:All Alone (Classic Editing) Camera:Sony DSC-P72 Location: A High School somewhere in Canada Date: Oct 16, 2003 Aperture: F2.8 ISO: 160 Shutter: 1/40 Galleries:Humorous, Interior Date Uploaded: Oct 17, 2003
Don't understand the title, since I only speak & read english so I'm not sure of its significance. Fits the challenge generally, not really getting a feeling of solitude or loneliness from the image, lighting is pretty good (the flash is a bit distracting), good focus and I like that the subject isn't completely centered in the photo. A nice snapshot. 5
The glare next to the boys head is very distracting...also I just really don't understand the message of this photo...English being my only language I do not know what the title or the sign on the door say...would love an explanation if you could email me I am curious. Overall to me this shot looks like a snapshot and really nothing more. sorry.
Hopefully, I'm not too off base on what this photo is portraying... He doesn't know what the sign says?? If I got that right, I have only 2 suggestions. 1) Add a prop to make the language barrier more obvious (a translation book, a shirt depicting his nationality or with print in his native language) so others can understand it without having to think too hard. 2) The flash reflection is really detracting from the shot. My eye was drawn right to it. Perhaps another source of light or standing off to the side? Otherwise, I like it. Keep up the good work!
