the "harsh light" actually adds drama to this. reminds me of a spaghetti western. these would be the Mexicans, led by Eli Wallach. |

Well, as you say the lighting is a bit harsh, but what can you do? There's a lot to this photo that makes up for it.
Pros:
The strongest point is the expressions on the goats faces as they recognize you; the centered one is reminicent of jj's "eye contact"; and while the other goats have started to notice you this one is clearly the leader. The variety in the sizes and colors is also nice. Border is subtle and not distracting; might not be necessary but that's your judgement call. To some degree the harsh sun gives a "National Geographic" look to it, which is actually kind of nice.
Cons:
As you say, the lighting. Also it ends up a little busy; I might try studying jj's shot to think about how you could lead the eye to that "ringleader" without losing the rest of the shot.
Overall, I think it's great! Thanks. |
