I like the first and second ones.  The bright cluttered background in the third 
is distracting.  If cropping it out is not possible, one might darken it a stop 
or so.

Hi Boris:  Of the three, I like Motion Phase #2 best. I like the
composition--very nice there. My monitor is showing 1 & 3 a little dark.
Also, I really like Shabazi 67. A minor nit might be the framing feels a
little tight on the right hand side, but I really like the shot and the
rendering too. Cheers, Christine


Odd, Christine, because as far as I can tell (and I just checked my LR 
(3.0, by the way)) both #1 and #2 got exactly the same post processing 
treatment re light and curves, etc.


Your comment about Shabazi 67 is really appreciated.

Thanks!

Boris,
I like the light in the first two portraits and the focus on the eyes
and his concentration.
The glass sphere is echoed in the spherical shape of his eyes.
I don't think the left side of the photo adds anything to the
composition.  Crop it out?
The third photo is weaker because of the light not modeling the
subject, no 3D to it.
Regards,  Bob S.


Thanks, Bob. You did look deeper into these photos that I could possibly 
have. I should also admit that both #1 and #2 are already rather well 
cropped, so that further cropping will probably render them unprintable.


I totally agree about your light related remark.

Thanks!

Boris

Hello.

Offering you a short series of three pictures starting a series of PESOs 
related to Mime Artists that paid our town a visit this week. What a 
fascinating sight it was for me.
