I dunno, but I think you are shooting a little tight for my taste. In six of the shots you lop off some heads, and in number two, the shot would have been far more dramatic with the inclusion of the matador's feet. Number four is out of focus, and doesn't add to the series imo. Be ruthless in your editing. The best is number two, and seven, though he really needs a little head room in the shot. In number six the white rear end blocking our view of what I presume to be the removal of an ear. The mysterious hand in left frame pulls your eye away from the action. I think I would have shot everything a little looser giving me the option to crop a little. One other thing that would improve the shots would be to get lower in the stadium so everything is not shot from above. Lots more drama from a straight-on view. Hope this helps. -- Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com Natchitoches, Louisiana USA On Mon, Jul 14, 2008 at 11:18 PM, Neil Schneider <neilschneider2@yahoo.es> wrote: > > Hi All... > I have been off the list for a bit and am now returning and working on a > new series of photos.. > I hope you have the time to take a look and comment on what you see.. > It is a series on bullfighting and i am trying to create a certain type of > look with the photos.. > This is an on going project and just the beginning of the series... > > http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/People-And-Places_0/La+Corrida+de+Toros/ > > Regards > Neil > > Neil Schneider > neilschneider2@yahoo.es > http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/People-And-Places_0/ > > > > ______________________________________________ > Enviado desde Correo Yahoo!
