Wonderful~ Rich in tone and texture, and that expression is terrific. Great job!

This excellent portrait reminds me of old 1960's B-movies. I was tempted to buy one of those goggles for my own use.


Ivan Jimenez   {K:9098} 5/31/2004
Not sure if the lagoon is green or black ... what I am certain of is that that it is a very cold and horrible place... ;-)


Renato Haber   {K:7228} 5/31/2004

Great emotive photograph! The expression is classic with the goggles. Nicely done.


James Lee   {K:4049} 6/27/2004
This image is just brilliant. Not 'pretty' and captures the imagination of this child. The lack of sentimentality gives us an insite which would be otherwise be compromised. Wonderful.

great capture, Bea


Eric Nolan   {K:777} 8/5/2005
The Rule Of Thirds: Visualize two vertical lines dividing your viewfinder into thirds. Now visualize the same thing with two horizontal lines. Your viewfinder would now look like a tic-tac-toe grid. (Some digital cameras have a setting that will pop up a grid in the view finder. My S7000 has this option.)

If you have trouble visualizing this, get a magazine and draw the lines on one of the pictures that you like. Then look for the different applications of the Rule Of Thirds.

For the simplest practice of the Rule Of Thirds, just position your subject at one of the intersections of the lines, or partway between one of the intersections and the center. This will usually give a more pleasing compostion than having the subject exactly in the center of the photo.

(I'm still learning about this photography stuff, so I hope this definition helps.)


Bea Friedli   {K:9816} 8/5/2005
hi Eric..thank you so much for your detailed explanation ! I appreciate it. but I have to be honest.. I don't like to follow rules and don't want to necessarily learn them with photography. well.. I do follow certain rules but don't you think that would impede your own creative vision ? either it looks great or it doesn't. rules are made to be broken and especially with an artistic medium such as photography. It's great to learn them when first "learning"...but..sometimes its so much better and fun to break them. makes your work unique and original. I think the most important rule is to follow your heart..and have fun !! experiment. relax.. your images will reflect that mood and be so much better than any "standard" photography rules.
anyways.. you got me rambling..lol..happy shooting and looking forward to your growth !
