Bergger BRF-200 as interpreted by TrueGrain.  C&C always appreciated.<

Hi Ken,
Interesting strong potential of backlight light and shadows.
However? The light flare screws it up. Or on the way to doing so if you
can't get rid of it? Or crop more?  Also something possibly unavoidable to
get rid of?

Image on screen. Hold up hand or card and eliminate that flare area. Well as
much as possible without screwing-up the complete photo! Almost impossible
because you cut into the nice curvature of the walk left side! And you need
that to keep the composition pleasant!      

Maybe a bit of body shifting around on your part if possible and eliminate
the sun flare. If so then you will have a very neat high contrast back-lit
with shadows photo! At the moment the flare spoils higher impact of the
whole image. And it becomes the eye-catching aspect of the photo instead of
the high contrast light and shadow forms.

Sorry mate as there's a nice shot there if you could get rid of the flare?

cheers,
ted
