a red haired girl in the shopping centre today

[marie]

I saw her today
sitting just like thathttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_cool.gif

this is for anyone and everyone who likes red headshttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif
...

I had to be very quick taking the shothttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif
as 'those who don't know I have a camera (all the time)' were coming back
and I hid it even quicker
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

so am sorry if the shot is a little lop sided

I got two of her (and I shook the other slightly)
but she turned around and smiled the most beautiful smile in it

I don't know how you do it, but you make it look easy.

Good job

[Mills]

Another nice on Marie. Beautiful Red Hair. If there is supposed to be two images, I get a ? for the second.

thanks Mills
there is another
I'll show it tomorrow
it's a little blurred
it's a shame ,as she smiled beautifully
but I was jerking the camera at that stage

when I saw her turn around and look at me I near died
seeing the beautiful smile and having to run (me)

WOW! Marie that's beautiful. you are the 'MASTER' we bow at your lens. :) :) :) I'll say one thing there is a lot of red in that photo, just about every hue, from her red hair and jacket to red hues in the woodwork, Nice job. :) :) :) :)

loved the reds myself Sandy

kindof rich looking colours on her and the bench
thanks heaps

http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

[berto]

shooting and running, eh? hmmm

[jgbeam]

That's a great composition. You have an eye for seeing a memorable picture where the rest of us just walk on by. :cool:

Jim

Ah yes, the sign of an ARTIST with a camera.

Very nice.

[Maureen Souza]

I'm partial to redheads myself.......LOL

[tim]

I don't mean to give offense, but I don't see anything special in that photo. I wouldn't usually post negative feedback outside the critique corner, but given the rest of the extremely positive feedback I thought my post might give a little ballance.

[marie]

shooting and running, eh? hmmm

:lol::lol::lol:
she was a lovely girl. no one would like running from her.
the colours she wore were warm looking together with the bench
they made a nice pair.
the background couldn't be avoided

thanks Berto

[marie]

I'm partial to redheads myself.......LOL


I know there has to be an Irish background somewhere therehttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif
your name being Maureen also

http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

[marie]

That's a great composition. You have an eye for seeing a memorable picture where the rest of us just walk on by. :cool:

Jim

it can be nice when we see things which look ok in shots
helps us practice for the special things eventually

thanks Jim

or a nuisance

thanks Titus

[marie]

no way are you giving offence Tim
there is nothing special in the photo except the girl is lovely
also the colours on and around her seem to go together well
the 'feedback' is just friends who know me and know I don't take it all literally .

I am just 'sharing' pictures.
I see most of all any mistakes (or whatever) myself
and I think they know that
it's how I improve. when I post the pictures I see them for what they are in a better 'light'
the replies are just 'sharing' with friends and for laughs.. sometimes

I am not swayed by others opinions too much.
in any part of my life
especially if I don't agree, but still like to share opinions
as that is what it's all about

at the end of the day I am me and you are you
and we go our separate ways with our separate idea's.
this picture was shared for the 'sharing' more or less.
I never yet had such a great picture as to shout 'look what I actually have done'
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif
the 'extremely' positive feedback ' as you call it, to me is just friends sharing a friendly remark.

any which way I still have to improve an awful lot.

no one knows that better then me
I'm no fool.
I never said I was good but I won't insult those who like my pictures
I have seen beautiful shots on the share section
but they would not be great or perfect
they are really nice to view and we can see that person is doing really well
(better)
we say positive things because we like the shots . as they are. not perfect not great
but really good in some way

each shot brings about a different kind of thinking to capture it in the best way possible.

this shot actually was much better with more space behind the girl
but I had to crop it off because of the flash showing on the arm of the bench http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_evil.gif
I didn't like it at all (flash) and even more... hated cropping off the piece
as the shot needed it badly

there were a few more distractions in that section of the picture also
but the cropping spoilt it (for me)

we all know it's not a great shot but some friends wouldn't dream of saying anything.
also some don't see it as anything other then nice
it is nice
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

I think it's a case of 'wink wink thanks for sharing, we loved it' because they just loved some things showing in the picture
that's all .
they know I enjoy their remarks
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

I can see all what's wrong myself
it's the sharing is in the caring.
and I just had to share that girl
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif
we all know who takes great shots around here http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif
but it does not mean the rest of us crawl into holes and not share what we can as we try to improve.
using our own criticism.
that's most important as only we ourselves know what we want from a picture
and how to improve is in our own hands
no one elses

also just to say we share places and scenes to show others parts of the world which some may not usually see , except in our pictures

thanks for saying Tim.
I do appreciate that you said what you did
http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif

You're damn right there is!!!

[tim]

The colors are very nice Marie :)

The only suggestions I could make would be about how to make the picture appeal to me, not how to make it better. Personally i'm getting better at taking pictures I enjoy looking at, hopefully most people would say i'm getting better, that's all we can ask really - to improve :)

a lot of the 'troubles' years ago put many people off
and the actions of a rebel few (who were not supported by many)gave us all a bad name
the 'troubles' in the North never came down south
hope you make it someday soon

[tim]

Belfast's a lovely city, I was a bit nervous each time I was there, but I enjoyed it and had fun each time. Dublin's more relaxing, I lived there for a couple of years.

[Maureen Souza]

and you know how everyone ,but everyone, loved her Maureen

I'd like to think I resemble that remark:rolleyes: :wink: :wink:

[stoneylonesome]

I don't mean to give offense, but I don't see anything special in that photo. I wouldn't usually post negative feedback outside the critique corner, but given the rest of the extremely positive feedback I thought my post might give a little ballance.

Having, amongest other things, a small background in illustration, art, and photography. I think the photo is really good, In an artistic sense it has good composition and depth, in the photo sense, it does what I feel a great candid should do, make the viewer ask many questions, like Why is the girl there all alone, is she waiting for someone, why is she so deep in thought, and what is she thinking about, and so many more questions, that makes a good photo. This could be used to advertise so many products. However the bottom line is and always will be "art is in the eye of the beholder" what some people find fantastic others won't even give a second look to. That is also what is so great about it.
so once again Marie great shot. :) :) :)

[thomascanty]

I got two of her (and I shook the other slightly)
but she turned around and smiled the most beautiful smile in it

This is a great shot, Marie. I'd like to see the other one you got, too.

[D4VE]

So would I ;)

[cmM]

her date is late :)

Nice candid Marie

just got seeing this post now
thank you very much Sandy
it's very true what you say. the girl like that really does beg those questions

sorry if I seemed flippant about the replys ,which I really really appreciate
but I never know how to really explain some things properly
and go on a bit the wrong way

thanks again

[marie]

This is a great shot, Marie. I'd like to see the other one you got, too.


thank's Lonnie

it's not so good (my picture of her)
but have to show it again for whoever asked
I think she is beautiful. wish I had been there a tiny bit longer
nice of her to smile at all
as she was surprised when she got the first flash
being in a world of her own.
I hated disturbing her, hoping she would not notice
and then when she did :shock:
what a smile
shame I 'blew' it

glad you liked it
