Shop Front - Carl Radford




This lady was just willing for me to take her photo but the male appeared to be a little more shy.

Thanks Dino...

just a shame about her hands and feet but this was in a busy market with people swarming around me!!

DOF

Carl her openness and his reticence create a visual spatial tension--not achieved by your chosen depth of field. His turning a cooler shoulder to you--it did not detract from this image. We have a chance to view him, too, wile enjoying her eminence in the foreground. Her feet and hand, yes, would have helped.

great expression on the mans face...

his body language says so much, more than hers i feel. yes the feet would have been good, but you have still captured the relationships between them, and with you too. shame there wasnt a little more contrast in their clothing to the sacks and bits on the left, as it seems a little 'busy'. having said that its a market place so what am i expecting??? :s
