Astrid,

I find it interesting how the background can be busy, and at the same time not at all distracting from the main subject. Could it be the intensity of the expression which holds the viewer's attention.

Very nice.

Great catched, this candid is really good.

Cheers.

Great use of DoF, an intriguing photo/subject. Don't you just want to try and look over his shoulder and find out what he is reading?

Great!!

Astrid -

Your reading photos are remarkable, but I like the one posted here best. Wonderful focus, tones, framing, capture and bokeh. Perhaps you should spend a few months collecting a book's worth of "reading" photos and see if you can get them published.

Stuart,

that's a really good idea - we'll see. ;-) I have to collect lots of photos for that; maybe this will be a long-termed project. But why not?

Regards,
Astrid
