info on where's wally
Very natural looking overlay. Complex but holds together with the strong perspective lines. Almost like you're taking a self portrait ;-) Waldo Wally is isolated nicely and easy to spot.
Wonderful image, so full and expressive. The overlays are evocative, along with the reflections, lines and distribution of tones in this stellar b&w. All the people are perfectly positioned, as if choreographed. The young boy next to you is charming. Looking at this is an immersive experience. I also like the fringing around the periphery and the overall speckling.
You got so much story in here: the longing look of the woman in the poster towards the little boy who is sort of doing a Greek dance and you, oblivious to the scene I just depicted!
Or perhaps the poster woman looks at you, having it all, a boy, a camera, a nice figure...
Very, very nice. And I like your use of textures
I can see the wally.
It’s a very interesting shot, lots to see and the b&w works wonders here, I love taking this kind of shot, I stand there like a geek for ages trying different angles etc, wally be wally.
Nice composition -- a natural diptych with the model on one side and you and the camera on the other. Is the little fellow behind you a relative? There's a lot to look at here. Nice work.
