Hi, I am new to the forum, this is my first post so please be gentle with me. I took this shot on a market in Spain. C&C welcome. I realise that the background is distracting just haven't got round to blurring it yet.

This really is not a bad photo at all.. I like the colors and the clarity is very nice. The background is really not bugging me all that much. The only thing that is slightly bugging me is the shadow on his eyes.. I really wish I could have seen the eyes... Other then that is is nice work..

Welcome to the forums.. this is a wonderful place for support and info. Thanks for sharing. :)

I really like the shot. I don't think the background is too distracting.

I would like to play around with this photo if you don't mind but you don't have your photo editing OK turned on.. I don't want to do to much but would love to see what I can do.. I am not saying that you can't in any way though. I just like to play with other people's photo's when I don't feel like I have anything worth playing with.. Thanks. :)

Thanks for letting me play around with this photo.. This was just a quick edit..

I burned out the bg, bumped up the sat on the costume, and tried to work on the shadow on his eyes.. For a quick edit I think it turned out pretty good. But it doesn't hurt to have a nice photo to begin with. You did very nice.

great shot...i agree with heather about the shadow on the eyes. some fill flash would have taken care of that.

heather...great job on the edit. looks great! i could see that image hanging in an old west museum!!

Nice editing job by Heather. :) Can just imagine what a little fill flash would have done including adding catchlights to make those eyes just come alive. I've got a few good shots like these where I could kick myself for not using a flash. :evil:
The shot itself is really good though.

Hi Barry, I love Malaga for photos, the buildings and also the people. Lots of images. I'm actually going to Benalmadena on Friday for a week.
