Re: PESO Danny blowing the bone
I agree with Frank. You've captured a peak moment and composed it well. The tight crop is what really makes the shot by excluding anything that would have been a distraction to the moment of a musician deeply involved in producing his note. A fortuitous bonus is the repeating colors of bluish-grey, seen in the curve of the hat and the curve of the trombone and then also repeated in his sideburns and Van Dyke. This is perhaps the most impressive I have seen from you, Larry (although I have to admit that I don't get to check out everything). While the color thing is really working for it, I would be curious to ALSO see what sort of quality this image might produce in Black and White, if it were mine. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
Re: PESO Danny blowing the bone
Larry, It's a very nice shot, both technically (DOF, focus, exposure, light, ..) and emotionally (you've caught a great moment). The instrument being out of focus is nice, and its lines lead the eyes to face. One thing that bothers me is that the chin is cut off. For the second shot, it's a good snapshot, but it does not work for me as a big photo. I think that comes from both the composition and too many highlights on the face. IMHO, the other shot of hers (20120913-LRC71808.jpg) is much better, even though I'd try to crop it to a square... or, maybe not..

Re: PESO Danny blowing the bone
Oh yeah! The bw ~really~ works well here. I think I prefer it to colour. Then again I think jazz is a black and white sort of thing, evocative of small smokie bars in the forties and fifties. This is a great shot. Also I didn't notice the second shot this morning. Like that one a lot. Very Billy Holiday...
