lady at the bus stop

osh_sekta · 1st of June 2012 (Fri)

late evening. tried to get the noise down as much as I could. note, that there's a lot of small rain drops as well.

p.s. un unreleated note - why, when I save the pic as 147kb, photo manager of this forum always adds up 3-5 kb to the size of the file?

Tonality, framing & comp. are fabulous. I wish it were a little closer, wider.

Overall I like it. I think the texture with the rain on the glass along with the suited looking guy behind the glass....along with her poncho... and other shapes to the right...make it a very nice image. Good eye!

I also like the loneliness implied in this shot, especially with the people indoors apparently oblivious to the person out in the rain.

Fantastic.

NeutronBoy · 2nd of June 2012 (Sat)

totally awesome shot (no I'm not 16 years old). I like the composition and the real clincher is the contrast between the woman on the bench and the counter customer inside.

Museum quality if you ask me.

Crop in,.outside corners are distracting and not needed

osh_sekta · 6th of June 2012 (Wed)

sorry, but I will completely disagree with you on that one.

If you cropped out the sign on the left it would draw more attention to the woman and the inside people; plus if you cropped out the rain-shield over her it would accentuate the rain, and it would eliminate the large white portion of a letter in the upper right corner. I think this would improve the drama of the scene.

...and also I would loose all the reason she is sitting there. now - she's waiting for the bus. after cropping - she's sitting somewhere near some mystic glass under the rain. why would she be sitting somewhere in the rain [if she's not a bitcrazy or smthn] for no apparent reason? by cropping I would just lose the story.

Very unusual I normally don't like busy photos but this appeals to me. Good snap

Maybe a difference between reporting size as 147*1000 or 147*1024 bytes.

147*(1024-1000) is a difference of 3528 bytes.
