robert_parker Posted August 14, 2006 Share #21 Posted August 14, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) The unusual angle, combined with the geometric background, works for me, too - it's very different from your usual compositions but still seems to show the subject in his own context / environment, as your other portraits often do. The eyes make it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotografr Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share #23 Posted August 14, 2006 Thanks again to everyone for commenting. Steve--I don't know what the cause could be but I'm inclined to agree with Leicamann. I don't see any of the noise when I open the full size image in Photoshop. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted August 14, 2006 Share #24 Posted August 14, 2006 Brent, could it be the resizing? The image is over 200k, so I wouldn't normally expect this kind of effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrewer Posted August 15, 2006 Share #29 Posted August 15, 2006 Jeez! Why didn't somebody tell me about this one? Wow! Superbly done for the circumstance and purpose, Brent. It's like the man vs the monolith--very powerful metaphor here. Thanks for sharing this incredibly apt photograph with all of us. Allan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
