You'll hurt yourself if you carry on like that....
I see you're getting to grips with your new toy. Good that you got the head silhouetted against the dark background. Like the old portrait tip to mix light/dark and dark/light edges.
Some purely personal observations. I could do without a lot of the left side and bottom - it doesn't really add to the shot - and cropping it more closely will also bring the "gang" at the right into the picture
Chuck, thought I'd come in here to reply to your post on Guelph. I have been wanting a new template for so long and just couldn't figure it out. I was so disappointed in the size of the photos showing when they looked so much better seen larger. I'm happy you agree. It makes a difference to have comments like yours from fellow bloggers. I'm not the "tecchiest" of folks and needed to keep on asking "HOW?" and finally a couple of the Daily Photo bloggers helped me. I'm happy with the new look.

PS I love your country. My late husband and I hikes so many hundreds of miles over there over the years both when we lived in N.Ireland and also after coming back to Canada. In fact, I'm showing one of the BBC Mountain movies (Griff Rhys Jones) to our Hiking Club tomorrow night and also a BBC Wainright documentary!!!
Bonjour Chuckeroon, je présume que tu comprends le français,non ?
N'écoute pas Richard, cette photo est juste cadrée comme il faut. J'aime bien la partie de gauche qui est très claire en opposition avec celle du fond sombre, cela donne de la perspective et de la dynamique (de la dynamite) à l'image Et puis ton personnage ne doit pas être en avant / l'image, il doit avoir un espace devant pour pouvoir avancer, voyons !
Le personnage est idéalement placé, avec la tête et les épaules dans le triangle noir, la roue avant est tout à fait également IMPECCABLE par rapport à l'élément grillagé. Bien sûr, tu n'y es pour rien, tu as eu de la chance, mais ton oeil et ton doigt sur le déclencheur au bon moment ont tout de même fait le travail ! Bravo !

What fun!! Yes, I guess! Have you tried? Or did you do the tagging?
ReplyDeleteThat looks like fun! But I think I will stick to taking photos from the bike!
