I think the type of photography you make definitely reflects who you are and how you're feeling at the time and I guess that will change throughout your life. Instruction #4 is slightly different - without people. <br /><br />Thanks Eileen. I was pleased with the first one and Nils himself left a comment to say 'like it'. Definitely an improvement. With regards the second image it does need more space at the edges, you're <br />right. The offline version does and it has somehow cropped the edges a little when I upload.marmaladehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16391253482055150718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985951537612478621.post-78848415778032482202010-10-22T06:53:44.332+01:002010-10-22T06:53:44.332+01:00Love the first picture - it works really well.

It has immediate impact - good structure, strong colour, her expression - and then lots of little details that come out as you look further. I also like the second image though as you say it doesn't quite have the impact of the first. I wonder if it would work better with a little more space on either side of the groups of figures? Not sure about that, just a thought...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16204385349190602874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7985951537612478621.post-75774684766651372592010-10-21T14:16:40.564+01:002010-10-21T14:16:40.564+01:00I told you Workington Bus Station could be inspira...I told you Workington Bus Station could be inspirational, even the pigeon is staring at you :-) Love the other photo too, there's even a (mini)bus in the background! I thought I'd be good at this and find my feet right away but I'm finding this "street" project tougher than I thought and I'm obviously not as brave as I was once. Years ago I'd have had no problem shoving a camera in somebodys face but that's when I was confrontational and wanted to be like Robert Frank or Bob Magill or George Rodger. Now I'm a much more private and relaxed person and feel far more comfortable taking my pictures from a distance. Funny how photography can become a gauge of your own state of mind! I obviously need to teach myself all over again.BlackCountryBikerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16320733678648014465noreply@blogger.com
