Great Great Great job on the blur. You have used it just enough to give the shot an air of dreaminess (like a childhood memory) but not overcooked it so that you lose the detail of your daughters face
I've clicked this open several times since May 1. Each time I forget what the subject is, & every time I look at the thumb I see a waterfall. So, when I click it open, it's a surprise. I like it because it's unusual, because of the mysterious beauty, & for the way it looks like the very definition of a moment in time. That particular moment was going by so fast, you alsmot missed it.
Blur is wonderful. Not totally sold on the comp. Unsure of what is actually bothering me, possibly not seeing enough of the girl's head, or too much white background? At the end of the day, I guess that's neither here nor there since the image commands attention anyway. Nice.
I really like the soft focus and composition on this. The only think I might have suggested would be to cut another couple of milimeters off the top to lose that tiny hint of any eye. I was scrolling down to get to the comments box and noticed it. Just a thought. I also REALLY like the tendril of hair. A very nice detail!
I love that expression. When you look at this picture you recognize it instantly because its the expression we all get when we are deep in creativity. Great moment captured!
This has "young boy school room fantasy" written all over it! I can image him sitting there staring as she writes on her test paper, focus slowing leaving his vision as he sees only the lips he dreams of kissing. Of course I was never a young boy, lol. Fantastic!
Well, I like it but think I would like it more if her head was not so cropped off. I guess you're going for a more abstract theme? I'm wanting to see more of a portrait out of this - it really bugs me that I can't see her eyes. Seems to have made others very happy though and yourself as well I hope. :)
Ohmygoodness. I love. . .I mean LOVE this photo. This to me is an example of using blur to turn a very nice photo into something exquisite and something you remember long after you have clicked onto something else.
What is your theme by the way. If this is the "norm". Woo Hoo! Can't wait to see more!!!
