It's ok, fills the frame, interesting angle. Would it be better if the woman was looking at me through the mirror or would eye contact make any difference, better or worse? Stuff: M6, 28/2, Portra 400B&W, 1/60 @ f/4ish... Now this is one shot that you can TELL has that Leica 'look' <rolleyes> *For the record. No candy coated replies wanted. Even though I may cry I gain nothing w/o creative criticism! Let me have it! Okay John you asked for it! Um, um, it's er, a bloody good shot. Full of interest, full tonal range, out of focus woman on right holds that side, darker figure on the left holds the other. Womans downward glance takes the eye back in from top right, which might be lost if she looked up for eye contact.. Multi images pack it with interest. Here comes the candy coat, rock solid sweet shot. Graham - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
