Hi Dario.

Lovely shot.

The concentration on the artists face and the subtle detail in the shadows make 
the shott
for me.

Good job

I like this one quite a bit.  The shadow on the carved face makes it a
better than average shot. Good work!

I was tempted to add a bright eye on the sand eyeball, just to give some 
extra life to it. but at the end I left it as it is.

Hello Dario,

Kinda cool.  I like what you have done.  What attracts me most is how
her face and the sculpture are looking at each other.  It would be
nice to bring up the shadowed sculpture face just a bit.

To my eye, it seems that her hand is a bit sharper than her face.  I
might prefer if her face were sharper, but maybe that's just me.  Or,
maybe a slightly wider dof, so they're both just as sharp.  No big
deal, though.

It's a wonderful photo, and it doesn't hurt that she's a gorgeous woman!  

cheers,
frank

Hi!


After almost one year, here is a PESO of mine:
http://www.dariobonazza.com/misc/misc13e.htm

Comments welcome,


Dario, I really like the scene. And the way you treated it is excellent. 
But I have two points to make.


1. The round OOF object on the top right is, well, peculiar.
2. I suppose you cannot really help it, neither can I, but something 
very subtle is wrong about the way this Sigma lens reproduced colors. Or 
it is my monitor. It is just a scosh (like Shel would say) washed out 
colors and just a tad low contrast... May be it was the light and 
nothing could be done. But strangely enough my Sigma 18/3.5 sometimes 
produces the same kind of flatty output.

1. I've removed the OOF object.
2. Washed out and low contrast are mainly caused by my intention to balance 
the girl and the sand (main subject) at the expense of the much more bright 
background. Reflector panels would have been in order if this was a posed 
setup (which wasn't).


Thanks for your appreciation and suggestions.

Dario, these are excellent.  I would have liked a bit better angle of 
light (and less shadow) on "Carved in sand" but they are both 
wonderful as they are, captured at just the right moment.  Well done!
