Not a darts player then - at least, not any good - not with that grip :-)
I like the intensity of that stare, like the high-key work, like the light on the hand and face. Overall, the image doesn't do a lot for me - and i think that's a compositional issue - the closeness of the hand and the dart to the face, without being directly in front, seems awkward, unreal; and yet doesn't have a natural balance of attention through the frame tthat makes it comfortable despite that. technically, in terms of light and focus and all that stuff, it wonderfully done. But I think the actual set-up itself lacks drama, lacks immediacy. It feels like a posed photograph, in other words, rather than communicating the imminent launch of the dart. |
