I cropped the previous Katie Waiting once more to this portrait type image. I liked the shadow play and natural soft light even better this way. I seemed very dramatic to me and added almost an adult character quality to this 4 yr old child
thanks Ricardo, in regards to soft, its a problem I have converting poster sized hi res images down to the limitations of this site for submission. so much data in such a tiny space. usually it appears ok down to 98x10 but in this small format they appear soft, especially landscapes. you can tell the compression effect by looking at my logo and seeing how much it blurs when reduced. I usually shoot in tiff format and to even get the logs to show clearly after reduction have to add many at the end of the process. I have found that the same photos also look wonderful as oil or water color conversions and do a lot of that for friends and for my personal taste, but those would appear even softer here and lost way too much detail. If you know how to make them appear sharper in here let me know. its kinda like getting 10 lbs of crud in a 1 lb sack if you know what I mean lol kenny
Kenny, Very, very lovely... I can see that your images look a little soft, is that something you are doing on purpose? because goes just perfect with the mood. PD. indeed my exhibition has been doing ok... nothing big, but means a lot to me. regards, Thanks! Ricardo
