Interesting the varied things that attract each of us about our subjects. For me the interest here is the codger on the right and the pipes across his lap. I agree that the smaller image is much "busier". Somehow these two chaps dont come across in a photo; not like the three Italian ladies the other day who were pleased to be in each other's company. Maybe this is just a bloke type friendship!
Pssst ... the big three zero!
Where to from here: technically and compositionally?
They probably aren't even friends, just band members. I did want the bagpipes which was what attracted me to them but I didn't like the way their faces had come out in that one.
Where to - don't really know. Not sure when I'll get around to taking some more - I've got a lot queued. Definitely in Adelaide with the SLR but that's not for a few weeks. I really want to get back to the SLR. Trouble is I don't want to leave it so long that I lose confidence. At the moment for some reason I'm just not in the mood for photography (too busy planning and booking an o/s trip). I find I'm looking at people now and thinking, no, you don't hve an interesting face.
I think I'll keep doing a mixture of head, head and shoulders and context, depending on what I think suits the person. If I can I take all 3 anyway and use the one I prefer.
Ooh ... o/s trip ... where to where to ... you seem to like what I regard as exotic ... 'fess up ... where yer heading?
You have a few queued ... I am totally dry even for this morning ... I am flat chat and dont get out at lunchtimes anymore ... and on the way home yesterday it was raining and blowing a gale ... I'll see what I can do on my way to work ... although it is dashed cold right now at 6am .. think it is meant to rain ... hard ... today ... have a feng shui talk on this evening .., might be fruitful.
I know what you think about "interesting face" ... that has been happening to me for a while now ... choosey ...
I'm glad you're both "looking for faces", I don't feel alone now..... I'm glad I had a break as well, I think.
I'm looking forward to those new trip photos later in the year though...
