Re: [Leica] Photo essay: Faces in the Crowd

Adam,

there are some very good portraits in this set. However, neither the
location, angles or poses change very much between shots so they tend to
become a bit 'samey' (Horrible word if it exists at all, but I'm writing
this at 06:30am...;-)  ).
It would have been interesting to explore different angles, for example,
using the perspective of the rows of seats as a means of leading the eye to
the subject.  The best one IMHO is
http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/Faces/Images/Faces18.jpg I like the pose,
the subject is obviously relaxed and I just think it stands out from the
rest.
