Reflectively Staring at Her Man

Comment by Kelli:
I see what you were going for...and I do see a man's reflection at the bottom corner, yet, it seems to be out of focus a bit. I didn't vote on this but probably would have been a 4. I'm sorry, but I really can't think of anything to improve the shot other than more focus.

hello again.

the major problem i had with this one was the title. it said staring at her man and i did not see her man. i was thinking ifn you could have put the reflection of a man (even you taking the photo) it would have been gallons better. your title gave me the idea. without someone reflecting it just like a manequin behind glass. i know that was the challenge.

having said that, your photography is good and i understood what you were doing by keeping the glass in the pic, and showing the reflections above her and still keeping her (fairly) sharp in the image. it was good like that, but i did not think that was enough.

I'm gonna take you on your word that it was just recently discovered. The shot is a bit dark to work well in print and the lighting sort of tells me that it's not a fresh discovery.

By reading your comment, I know you regret this shot :) It is always disappointing when we want so badly to submit and it just doesn't work out well, isn't it?

The reflection alone isn't bad, but it just doesn't make a lot of sense. I honestly don't have a lot of tips to offer for the shot; but I think the stripe down the right hand side of the picture is very distracting. Just my thoughts :)

Yes. It is definitely out of focus. I left my tripod home and should have left this shot in the camera. : )

Thanks for the comments.

this one seems a little bit out of focus, and the reflections arn't helping that much either
