Bateleur Posted November 29, 2018 Share #2 Posted November 29, 2018 Delightful portrait especially as it is full of context and horse in the background provides the perfect background. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

topoxforddoc Posted December 5, 2018 Share #7 Posted December 5, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) Charming environmental portrait documenting an old fashioned way of life. Looks like myself and my siblings when we were small. I hope you don't mind me commenting, but I prefer my mono images with a bit more contrast and bite, rather than the graduated tones in your image. I have tweaked it a bit in SFX Pro and LR6. Doubtless I will be shot down in flames Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

Bo-Sixten Posted December 6, 2018 Author Share #8 Posted December 6, 2018 (edited) Thanks for your comment Charlie. I'm glad you liked my photo. Your approach to BW certainly works well for you when I looked at your very engaging, excellent photos from your web site. Your edit of this photo communicates differently. For my taste that fits well with a lot of reportage style or harsh environment pictures, which I also like a lot. But I also like the smooth rendering and soft grey scale in BW conversion coming from the pre asph lenses, especially for portraits. Cheers.

mhanke Posted December 11, 2018 Share #9 Posted December 11, 2018 A stunning portrait with perfect context! The edited version does not fit, especially the kid's face is rendered almost featureless and stands out too much. However, I agree that the original might be improved a little bit with careful treatment, especially of the mother's face. Marcus 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
