p.1 #1 · Dancers in and around water

Just a couple of fun shots as the summer is just starting to kick in here in Chicagoland.

Comments always welcome.

1. I just kinda joked that maybe we should go get in the river, and she said okay.

2. This is our first shot, and then I talked her into getting soaked. It wasn't very hard to talk her into it.

3. This is a 70-200 lens being handheld at 1/20 sec.

(4) is *so* much better than the other 3, that I feel it belongs to a different world... really spectacular

(1) Interesting idea, but the background, POV, lack of DOF, and exposure kill this image

(2) Not a fan at all of the angle you chose to shoot from. Move to the left and try again.

(3) Too much DOF, and forced pose ruin this one for me.

Overall, the other 3 seem very "snapshotty" to me if that makes sense.

(4) is amazing in it's simplicity and artistic vision.

4 is just spectacular. I'd clone out the bird and see if it worked better, it seems to draw my eye but that might just be me.

I like the concept in 1 a lot but the background is both too bright and too busy(car lot).

2 and 3 are Cantigny I think, this is right near where I live.

Nice set, Ron.
I'm finding #1 rather busy, but other than that, well done. Poses in #2 & #3 are good ones too.

Comparing the first 3 to #4 just isn't fair. #4 is a different type of photo (silhouette) with a clean background. You got everything positioned perfectly in that one. Even the fingers are perfect. Take a bow.
