And all this time I thought you were becoming a better photographer because you 
were working hard at it, and it turns out that you're just goofing off and 
having fun.  I hate you.

There's a lot to comment on in your post, but I don't think I'll
answer each and every point.  Much of what you say I agree with, but I
guess my answer is that I really don't "think" much when I'm shooting.
 Wherever I am, that's what I shoot.  Whatever the results are, that's
what they are.

I don't "try" for content to the exclusion of other things.  Certain
genres of photography (to me at least) require some things more than
others;  for instance, nature photography really needs sharpness and
colour (there are exceptions of course), so when I'm down by the Lake,
I'm aware of colour and doing my best to keep things sharp (although I
have a long way to go as compared to "real" nature photogs).

I guess the bottom line is that however my photography may be
evolving, it's not so much a conscious thing as just the way things
go.  Yes, I'm in control and making decisions, but really, I'm just
doing my best to record things around me in a way that conveys where I
am and what I'm feeling.

cheers,
frank

Frank, It seems that you go through periods concentrating on one aspect of 
photography to the exclusion of all else, and not moving on until you've gotten 
very good at what you're working on.  At one point it seemed as if you were 
only interested in subject matter, almost to the exclusion of exposure, focus, 
motion blur. Lately, I've noticed that your work, while retaining the "art" 
seems to have improved a lot more in the "craft". Almost all of your photos 
lately have been sharp, clear, well exposed, and I don't know whether that's 
because you're trying harder for sharpness, or if you're just shooting in 
better light.

I think that a lot of people benefit from shooting in black and white because 
it's one less thing to work on. Rather than worrying about color balance, and 
whether the colors in the shot actually go well together, it's just the light, 
and the composition.  Lately, however, it seems that your work is being held 
back by doing it exclusively in black and white. It seems that a significant 
percentage of your recent shots would be a lot better in color.

I know that you have a "knarf does kolor" page, but I'd like to see more of 
your work in color.

I like them both. As I suspected they are two, almost entirely different, 
photos. In black and white the photo is all about body language and facial 
expression.  It's about the moment.  In colo(u)r, it's a great image, and would 
be even if I took off my glasses and only saw colo(u)red blurs.

My habit is to use color as the default, but will often decide that a picture 
is stronger in black and white.  I appreciate the fact that with you, a photo 
has to stand on its own in black and white, and color only makes it better.

I find it interesting that in color it's easier to notice that the picture 
isn't tack sharp which I find amusing because I was just reflecting on how 
generally sharp all of your photos have been lately.  They've all had the 
theraultian subject matter, but not the theraultian blur or noise.

PESO - The Long and the Short of It (colour version)

2010-08-20 Thread frank theriault

Here's the b&w for comparison:

Excellent!  The expression on the woman's face is great, as is the girl's pose, 
and the background provides the context.
