azzo Posted October 22, 2006 Share #2 Posted October 22, 2006 Ted...i like this shot. The bottom left bed sheet, i'm not so sure about. Best Azzo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted W Posted October 22, 2006 Author Share #3 Posted October 22, 2006 No? Making a crop there might not work, I'm afraid, because you'd lose her arm... it might be one of those things I'll have to live with. Thanks for looking. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzo Posted October 22, 2006 Share #4 Posted October 22, 2006 No Ted, acrop won't work. If anything i'd try another image from this one also. A horizontal crop from the top till the dark window skirting on the left.But anyway, it is still a nice image. Azzo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pleeson Posted October 24, 2006 Share #6 Posted October 24, 2006 Bed sheet, what sheet? I didn't notice ;-) I think the picture is fine as is, not meant to be a studio portrait. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil.....Mine are only constructive critisism and, in no way try to make fun with other member's images. I liked Ted's image in the first place,and also pointed out that he could have another image from his picture, if he wanted. Best Azzo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_dykstra Posted October 25, 2006 Share #8 Posted October 25, 2006 The bed sheet says the shot is made in a bedroom. Part of the scene. Don't crop. Never crop! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_x2004 Posted October 25, 2006 Share #9 Posted October 25, 2006 I just dont think it works shooting into the flat shadow of the models face. I would have sacrificed the correct exposure for the hotel walls window and tried to get something out of the model/subject. Or tried a different composition which shed a different light on the models features. Even try the bedside lamp and shine it in her face, colour balace isnt an issue.

azzo Posted October 26, 2006 Share #10 Posted October 26, 2006 rick-dykstra, took a peep on your site and you've some lovely images there. But 2 particular images caught my attention. Let's take the Crimson Rosella...It is cropped, right !? It is this particular image that i would like to see in full frame.Why didn't you manage to get a full frame ? You obviously anticipate a picture, so you position yourself where and what you want in the frame and you wait for the right moment.Wouldn't you now have prefered positioning yourself a bit further back, and would have shot a full frame with the Crimson Rosella, the Grey Currawong and also another frame with the latter on top of the Rosella? Then, if need be you crop, and you would have ended up with 3 full framed images rather than 2 cropped birds, knowing that it's difficult to get them.So your ' Don't Crop. Never Crop ! ' sometimes does work, in other cases it doesn't ! But on the other hand, i don't think i would be able to get a good picture of a bird not even if it were in a cage:). And for that, i take my hat for you, 'cos as i said, you have caught beautiful images there. Azzo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's take the Crimson Rosella...It is cropped, right !? .... Azzo Hi Azzo. I'm a bit late replying. Sorry about that. The two images you've mentioned, of the crimson rosella and the grey currawong, are indeed full frame. Why are the birds so big in the frame? Well, I was set up on top of one rock, aiming at a natural puddle on another rock, at a focusing distance of about 2.3m. At that distance the small birds that normally visit the puddle are a good size in the full frame of an R8 fitted with an APO-Telyt-R 560mm F5.6. On this particular day a parade of birds took their turn in the puddle, then a pair of rosellas slowly and cautiously moved in, followed quite briskly by the currawong. I couldn't move back and I couldn't change the lens. I was sitting as still as I possibly could, in full camos, for so long it was starting to hurt. The currawong looked positively frightening in the viewfinder. Impressive, but scary. Hope this helps. Regards, Rick. 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotografr Posted July 13, 2022 Share #12 Posted July 13, 2022 I don't see any image. Just a box with the words " sorry, this image is currently unavailable." What happened? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
