The high key has more to do with a quick scan at a local lab than any intrinsic contrast in the image.

Colen Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2005 11:05 AM To: 'Leica Users Group' Subject: RE: [Leica] Don's PAW They are both Keepers, Don - Great shooting. I definitely prefer the first, however, and would make two suggestions: Crop it, starting on the left, just to the outside of the young woman in the foreground's hand, across the top the same amount, and come down on the right just outside of the prominent young man's raised hand - I think that will put even more emphasis on the center action, and use those two strong figures to frame the scene. Also, I'd do whatever I could to reduce the high-key look. But I'm nit picking - it's a terrific image. The second photo is nice, but as nice as it is, it doesn't approach the first, which has just about every element I'd look for in a "keeper." Best B.

A very strong picture for sure. Adam _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
