I was just reviewing some old photos - and ive decided to convert some of the better ones into proper b/ws.
It works really well here due to the simplicity of the scene, plenty of contrast to work with too.
Ou yang: Mostly described as a 3 year A old kid turning 24 in september. Only slightly eccentric, he dreams of becoming a Power Rangers toy doll. (only the luminous pink collectors edition model will do!) When he has tired of his toy doll persona, the idealist in him takes over - revealing the vocal humanist with a certain predilection for social *biology*. His interests include photography, academia and philosophy.
Ambition? To be the best damn doctor he can be.
I don't know about you, but I've seen your other photos, think you're pretty decent, but I do not like this photo at all. If anything there is no particular focus, and the composition and makeup's pretty much messy if there's a word to describe it. =/
ReplyDeletedo leave your name btw. im assuming you're a fellow photographer. :)
ReplyDeletethe focus is on the hands messing with the glucose meter in contrast to the patient's look of horror...
ReplyDeleteit IS a messy photo - thats how its supposed to be in real life. The patient was being restrained because he was hyperactive. this is a scene from one of the special schools in singapore.
i think the photo fully conveys what its meant to. guess the lack of the other anchor really spoils the photo - what to do? patient privacy comes first.
but its a good crit. and i appreciate it. :)
