Lost in thought over a tall drink

Just a candid with the Coolpix SQ in the Copy mode.

I really like the effect that the layer of grain gives on this shot. The b/w works nicely too.

I find her hand in there a little distracting though.

Hmmm, may have to chop it off, then. Nice shot, amc.

Gee, I have no idea what hand you people are talking about.

Hey amc, humor me - try cutting off even more of her (like just behind her ear), so that's she's truly on a third. Seems radical, but I bet it works - she has a cool expression.

wxwax...this Bud's for you

You're absolutly right Sid...makes a bit difference. I must have been blind. (Oh wait...I am blind!). Many thanks!

wxwax

Cool! You could probably get away with cropping off some of the bottom too (like slightly above where her sleeve meets the glass.) That puts her face not only on a vertical third, but also a horizontal third.

I think.

I think we have the making of a step-by-step tutorial here. Many thanks Sid. Hope I got it now...I'll be running out of pixels soon.

wxwax

That's it! I really like that one!

amc

Whew! Hey I learned another lesson too....when you delete the bad photos in the album they no longer show up on the thread! Duh...

So much for the tutorial

wxwax

If you still have the original on your computer, you can just upload it to smugmug again, and put the link back in yer first message, if you want.
