stunsworth Posted October 13, 2006 Share #1 Posted October 13, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm not sure this really works. This was on the left bank and I was trying to take a photograph that contrasted the guy in the restaurant with the kebab place next door. I was really hoping that the kebab shop owner would pop his head into the frame but it didn't happen. One that got away I suppose <grin> Canon 5D, 50mm Summicron Welcome, dear visitor!

azzo Posted October 13, 2006 Share #2 Posted October 13, 2006 Steve...A timeless photo i call this. If this image were mine, i'd crop out the right part without hesitation. FANTASTIC SHOT. Regards Azzo ps Just noticed that the crepe image was yours also.... then 2 Fantastic images. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted October 13, 2006 Share #3 Posted October 13, 2006 Agree. Crop to the bistro sign. Kebabs just make you ill anyway... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted October 13, 2006 Share #4 Posted October 13, 2006 Yup, do the crop. Never eaten a Donor Kebab, was not sure which animal donated it. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmr Posted October 13, 2006 Share #5 Posted October 13, 2006 Steve, rich and clear, a good shot. The suggested crop works too, in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted October 13, 2006 Share #6 Posted October 13, 2006 Yup, do the crop. Never eaten a Donor Kebab, was not sure which animal donated it. Pete. You have missed out on one of life's great experiences. Like 15% mortgage rates. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elansprint72 Posted October 13, 2006 Share #7 Posted October 13, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Nah, Did the 15% mortgage thang, just used herbs for a while instand of flesh; home-grown in the loft Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cboudier Posted October 14, 2006 Share #8 Posted October 14, 2006 One more vote for the crop ! Very nice capture Steve Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerhardt Isringhaus Posted October 14, 2006 Share #9 Posted October 14, 2006 I wouldn't crop a thing. Statement of the times and the nose in the air only makes it more so. Up there with HCB, in my book. GI Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilfredo Posted October 14, 2006 Share #10 Posted October 14, 2006 Great use of Canon and Leica gear! The man's expression is priceless. Everything to the right of the bistro sign is distracting. Would you consider burning that area or softening the focus, or both? Cropping that section would also eliminate the distraction. Excellent capture.

harmsr Posted October 14, 2006 Share #11 Posted October 14, 2006 Steve, I really like the look on the guys face and the two people walking which are reflected just before the sign. Go for the crop. Best, Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calshot Posted October 14, 2006 Share #12 Posted October 14, 2006 No leave it as it is. There is a contrast between the list of foods available and the expression on the chap at the table. I don't think he is waiting for a kebab? Am I making sense here? Rob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
semrich Posted October 14, 2006 Share #13 Posted October 14, 2006 After all the weighing in, to crop or not to crop, that is the question? Steve I would be interested in your view, it is your picture. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted October 14, 2006 Author Share #14 Posted October 14, 2006 Richard, as I mentioned originally my intention was to try to contrast the two eating places, and that I didn't think it was very successfull. After careful consideration I think it would look better cropped :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
