Syncopation

The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking. - Brook Atkinson- 1951

    #2 has such a classy feel to it. Sorry that's such an intangible thing to comment on, but it puts me in some other year in some other place. Well shot.

    All three are very good, Synco, but #3 is strongest. The byplay between the girls is very good. You almost can hear their voices. Reminds me of one I made with a point-and-shoot back in 2000 with a similar byplay.

    I felt the same way about the conversation being almost audible, but I get distracted by the girl on the left staring directly into the camera. Again, I am so very new to this.

    Great control of light in these. In 1 and 2 it looks like you were taking advantage of a street lamp or some other external source. Well done.

    Nice set, #2 looks like a Young Christopher Lloyd.
