The closer you get to the picture the better it gets...

Or is it the other way around?

    Nice detail and exposure here, but it doesn't quite work for me. I think the problem is that too much of the frame contains kitschy art. It took me several viewings to realize that the background behind the guy wasn't yet another painting. Perhaps a tighter crop would help.

    There is a great shot in here. Agree with Richard, crop right in on them and the expression on his face and the closeness of customer to painting will be the clear focal point.

    Hmm...I just noticed that the picture he is holding up is the same as the one in the upper right. So maybe just lose the rooster. ne_nau.gif

    What's great about this forum is the outstanding critique. Here's to the two posters who say "crop out the junk". Square is good.

    Better?

    I liked the cropped version. I also didn't realize that the building behind him wasn't a picture without studying it.

    I like the cropped version much better, twinsmom!
