My Life storyby riksnakeComment by snaffles: Greetings from the Critique Club! I love having a subject like this gentleman here. The colours, textures and tones are great, the composition simple and manages to avoid dead-centredness by the slight angulation of his head away from you.
Now for the nitpicky part. Shallow dof works great for macros and some subjects, and can work well portraits...but I'm afraid the fact that his eyebrows and the tip of his nose is so out of focus that is detracts greatly from the overall image. Ditto the more slightly oof right eye. Most lenses aren't at their best wide-open and I think that a few more stops down would give us all that lovely detail only hinted at here. Your settings confuse me a bit...why such a high ISO and fast shutter speed? Surely you could have got away with an ISO of 320-400 and a shutter speed of 1/100. That would have allowed you to shoot at f.4 or more.
Otherwise, a lovely image with tons of potential. Please keep shooting and entering and feel free to PM me with any questions.
ETA: Might I suggest that, as this is a Free Study entry, that you take a good look at the 12th place image in this challenge and in particular a good look at the settings used!

An appealing image that contributes well to the challenge
Welcome to DPC Roger and what a great start! Good focus and DOF to bring out the important detail together with good colour and lighting makes this work very well. You already have a great set of images in your submissions, we look forward to more great entries from you. |
