It was high noon, sunny day in Opatija ( most famos Croatian seacoast and touristic place, jet set loaction etc...) , when I visualise the scene there where several layers I want to catch 1. Person that walks into the scene, 2. Mark for a Grand Hotel, and 3. worker in a distance. I need DOF ( small aperture) , and I need speed ( worker is moving, and person with the coat is moving also), I had slow speed ( ISO 100 film), and I decide to expose for highlits ( sunny 16 - ( f11/250) to get DOF, freeze scene, and not loose details in a distance...and I want that HCB (Henry Cartier Bresson) contrast and mark (...what do you think is this photo succesfull or is there improvments that could be reached...

 

thank you all in advence...

Hello, I think you have achieved a nice contrast in your image. However, for me it's a little too busy and should be simplified . There is just too much going on and with the hard contrast it's difficult to read the image properly.

Hi Darko,

 

For me too the picture looks too busy. One or two instead of three main motives might

have been enough. Also, in my opinion, a limited depth of focus might have emphasised

one of the motives and limited the impact of the busy background.

 

Wishing you a nice X-mas time with lots of photo opportunities,
