True love - matching silly outfits

Comment by DrAchoo:
The Technicals: Focus, DOF and contrast are all nicely done. The obvious downside is the overexposure of the dog and the white portion of the man's coat and hat. It may be possible to handle some of this with Shadow/Highlights in Photoshop, otherwise you would have had to compensate when you shot it.

The Feel: Makes me smile. I do like the square crop which emphasizes the symmetry between their outfits. The DOF does isolate them a bit, which is good. If possible I may have given just a slightly more generous crop on both sides, but maybe you were forced to do this because of objects or people just out of the frame.

The game: Ya, pretty subtle for DPC. Screw them. You probably would have gained a few tenths if you could have controlled that highlight.

Nice light on the woman in the window. I'd try cropping a little closer -- right above the railing on the roof. I don't much go for the long skinny look in the format.

Wow! This is so pretty! So European. Your editing is awesome! And I love the scale that the people at the end of the path give this.

The scene is so pastoral! I hope your free study entry does better, but this one. . .I think it sure would have done well!

I didn't even get a free study in this month, but I will have fun voting and looking to see if I can tell which one might be yours :)

Gorgeous! Love the greens in the vineyard and yellow on the one house. Plus the people in the road gives a great sense of depth. Well done.

this is a really nice, neat, well composed image. Its sharp in all the right places and soft in all other. the only critique would be less light to make it more low key. I would say its "lightly lit", still very nice image. 8
