Restless is the word I'm looking for. Perhaps crop very tight to the guy with the digital thing plud the girl behind. Between them they are more directional. I know you probably wanted to get a 'gallery' effect so included more. Maybe you should have waited till more people were looking in the same direction??? Alternate 1 http://www.steveunsworth.co.uk/PAW/week_04alt1.htm A 'nice' pic. Trouble is I feel it is a bit common. ie. done before by many. I think the blacks/shadows are a bit mucky, is this just the scan? Nevertheless, if I had been there I would have shot it anyway, but maybe tried something a bir different for PAW. Alt 2 http://www.steveunsworth.co.uk/PAW/week_04alt2.htm I like this one the best. Maybe I would go for a lower camera angle to dramatize the converging aspect between the man and the girl, to reflect more strongly the line of the ceiling. However, I do notice that the girl is actually walking and maybe there was not time for such consideration. Alt. 3 http://www.steveunsworth.co.uk/PAW/week_04alt3.htm This pic is too dimembered for me. It may be suffering from 'small screen syndrone (at least on my computer). It may work better viewed without scrolling. Actually I just shrank the image after writing the last comment and it does look better when you can see all the image at once! I also feel the OOF area could be a bit more OOF to reduce distraction. Try f0.5 :-) Thems my thoughts.
