About the subject with bike was intended to be in his full inside the frame, but due to the low shutter respond by digital cameras I had to guess when he will cross the frame and press the button slightly earlier... didn't calculated to perfection, obviously

El señor ciclista no es el centro de la foto, es un elemento de circunstancia, no molesta demasiado que no esé completo. Muy buena idea, quizá podrías haber jugado un poquito con el foco, no sé, es una idea! El desnivel de la calle da movimineto a la imagen!

I like this angle and great DOF, but would remove the bike ;-)
Regards, Biliana

Derek, great shot. I agree with Biliana. In fact, it might be interesting to try a vertical crop to eliminate the car and the bike on the right, and experiment with the possibility of removing the first pole on the left. Lou

You're right, Derek; it might've made sense to crop the biker out of the photo entirely. I think it would clean up the composition. On the other hand, since he was your desired subject, what's a fella to do? Does your Fuji have a burst mode? That might work next time.


Derek Dixon   {K:4948} 2/23/2004
thanks for your comments, the fact I wanted the biker on frame is to give some proportion to the photo (always find easier to relate to sizes if a person is in the picture, as they have proportions we are used to see), plus it gives some movement to it. I tried the empty version and I didn't particularly like the result.
John, the camera has a multishot option, but I didn't have time to set it up in that moment! was the only person to pass in the street for more than 5 min, and was freezing to wait for another one...

The biker may ben out of position as you say, but the picure is still very good. I agree that should experiment with some croping at the right. Good work!!!

just a crop of this one

Great perspective, I like the downwardness (a new word) of the posts.


Emma James   {K:272} 2/25/2004
Derek, I like the original shot better than the cropped one. I think your original aim of him being fully inside the shot would have improved it as you said. However the cropped version lacks something.

I like the cropped version ...
ciao !
Tommy.

Hey, I took this quick snapshot on my bike from the Guild Hall end of the lane - that's not you lurking on the right is it..? lol :)



Jiri Gregor   {K:759} 3/14/2004
Nice photo. Reading these messages, I dont thing the bike makes this picture worse, only gets another sense of the view.
