Thank you Lynn; and I did nothing to it except apply auto contrast. My angels were with me on this one. :D

Great shot Angelo!! I love the colors and clarity. I used to be afraid of anything that resembled a clown...but he looks like he'd be a pretty nice fellow, he he.

Very nice photo Angelo.. vivid colors and an amusing look on his face! By chance did you ask him if you could take a picture? Or did you shoot first and ask questions later? :D

I definitely asked for this. I was using my D70 kit lens (18-70mm) I'm on strict orders from Andy to stay away from my telephoto. :rofl

Nice example of use of daylight flash. :nod

Interesting, colorful and very crisp :thumb :thumb

My only criticism is that the background appears a bit tilted a bit to the left. No biggie and easily fixed.


I agree with 4labs. I'm liking your pics more and more :clap :clap

Dang you Steve!!! :wxwax

Thanks for the compliment and I'm now stymied by the "tilt" I hadn't paid attention to before. I'm certain the camera was level... as I look at the 2nd floor windows vs. the car the angle differs... I wonder if there's a slope to the street I never noticed before? and beyond that is the tilt a real issue or could it be seen as enhancing the tilt of his head? (when life hands you lemons...)

Very nice shot Angelo. The colors, the comp, everything, good job.

[dragon300zx]

Angelo I love the colors in that shot. Makes me jealous.

I looked at it again, and compared to the windows, you can tell the street is in fact slanted.

Love this shot Angelo! :thumb Like all the others said, crisp and the colours are so vibrant!

Thanks everyone. I'm overwhelmed by your compliments.

[Thiago Sigrist]

It's pure coolness, the guy's expression, and your getting close to him, exposure, use of fill flash, the COLORS...! Lovely, just lovely!

I'll also point out that you used an excellent lens for the job! The 18-70 DX is great, I've taken some of my favourite shots with it, like this one:
