Me and Rose - Self-portrait...

Ritratto B/N

View gallery (6 photos)

Me and Rose - Self-portrait sent on September 04, 2013 (22:24) by Meghisti. 22 comments, 1260 views. [retina]

at 70mm, 1/320 f/11.0, ISO 100, tripod.

Autoscatto al termine di una (per me) impegnativa salita in quota a circa 3000 m. Arrivato in cima sono rimasto impressionato dallo spettacolo del Massiccio del Rosa ed ho voluto celebrare la riuscita della mia impresa ritraendomi mentre osservo il panorama, leggermente sfocato per indirizzare lo sguardo dell'osservatore allo spettacolo di cui stavo godendo e non su di me che ero parte del momento ma non ero IL soggetto della foto. Il viraggio in BN l'ho deciso per togliere quello che secondo me era un elemento di disturbo (il colore, appunto), per evidenziare ancora meglio l'imponenza della montagna, il contrasto tra la roccia ed i ghiacciai. #biancoenero #blackandwhite #selfportrait

Congratulations indeed Frederick. The turning black and white I think it is an appropriate choice.

For your words last night thank you both. You can not please everyone and I accept that, I'm just a little shocked because I do not think that the EP the other day is the result of my servitors ingranni or strategies from war games:-D

a salute to both ;-)

Thanks Raphael, I wanted to give a vintage touch to shoot, I also added a bit of grain (which I never do) just to recreate the atmosphere of those photos that recall the first excursions in the mountains, I hope I have succeeded:-P
As an EP considers the difference between the positive comments and encouragement that you have received in respect of those who have criticized and sums up ;-)
Have a nice day and enjoy the EP without regret:-D

gather # 2230712] invitation : a skin (I have not much else to hold on ...: - |) I would not be limited to blur your figure, but I would also decentralized ... more decidedly to the left, I also find that the effect will seize too little vintage ...

meghisti your photo do not like .. I do not like the subject at the center, I put on the left third of .. the choice of optics does not convince me, in shots like this, where the view takes precedence would have preferred to use the wide-angle to open the horizon! also the idea of ??you do not like out of focus, very disturbing! on toning black and white I can not express myself because I have yet to understand myself and the relationship I have with him MrGreenMrGreen
these are my personal opinions, even very personal!

Oh well, here we go:-D
Masssimo Alebergamini first and I am pleased to make your acquaintance.
I agree with you that I should decentrarmi on the left, I was wrong target and I could not take the picture again because it was likely people and I had "polluted" the scene.
The choice of optics is dictated by the same reason, I made time to try 17-40 but came with too much stuff (people, the cable car station) between Rosa drowning the other peaks, while the subject of the photo and 'him.
The color change I agree with Maximus, the vintage effect is not noticeable, but I think it's my technical limit in the PP, in the sense that I'm not capable.
I have tried using the default LR but I did not like the result, it was artifact.
It strikes me a little bit Alebergamini that the blurring ofshe my person bother you because the effect I was looking for is exactly the opposite, in fact maybe an object is not in focus at the center of the scene captures the attention more than what I imagined.
Thanks to antrambi for your opinions. :-)

I think if you really wanted to blur (and there is) you should not have put you right in the middle of the photo, too intrusive.
much better to the left

Erre Hello, you're right, I have also pointed out Massimo and Alebergamini but unfortunately I was wrong target and I could not repeat the shot and because 'people came: fconfuso:
Thanks for the advice, I'll keep 'present to win the future :-)

3EThe composition: what is the subject? You or Pink? From the title I assume that's you, but then I see you out of focus in the shot, then I would have done the opposite, or I would have used another angle of view to have everything in focus.

Last but not least important, indeed, the light: in this kind of shots of the light must be as grazing, to emphasize the texture of the rock and ice / snow, a light so direct and harsh flattens the scene. Avoid like the plague mountain in the middle hours if not for purely documentary.

I'd like to eventually see the shot in color.

Hello and thank you for put into play.

I also pick up # 2230712] invitation and I think the biggest problem is that you have the wrong focus.
All your intentions would have been more evident showing the proportions between the two parties (you and the mountain).
So it seems the picture of a passer-by who you crashed the scene :-)

Unable to take a picture like that alternative, in my opinion, would have been to
to put part of your profile as a backdrop on a margin of the photo with his eyes turned toward
the mountains, in order to have the subject clearly evident (top) and a frame blurred to give depth.

Pisolomau thanks to you for assistance, I am learning more in these hours in a year on the forum ;-)
First consideration, the black and white will not believe it but the photo was designed in black and white. But, now that you mention it, I see myself through different eyes, there is little contrast and the sky is washed out. This is a major criticism of which I have to think (and learn) well.
Angle: the same thing have made me notice the previous speakers and I fully agree, even in this case honestly I noticed right away, just that I could not take the picture again because people came.
The composition: interesting note, I did not really thought about the contradiction between the title and the fact that I have blurred, this causes confusion. Unfortunately often underestimate the'Importance of a photo holder correctly, another thing to think well.
The light: in this case you're right, I arrived at the top too late and the sun was too high but I lost time photographing mountain goats:-D
Sabba, thanks to you for the intervention. With focal wrong mean that I should have used a wide angle? In this case I answered earlier in Alebergamini, 17-40 came with too much stuff in the frame. As for decentrarmi you're absolutely right.
Thanks again to you both for the advice and availability:-P

Comment as a result of your request game from here [URL =] www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=583305
I saw your gallery, and if as you say, photographers 1 year, I congratulate you for several shots of a good standard (one for all "ghosts in the tunnel"). Of this photo, the thing I like most is the idea that inspired you to achieve it. And 'significant that, among many objectively best shots from the technical point of view, you have chosen to propose in-depth commentary propio this. This indicates an emotional bond, an emotion, a picture that you feel for the way you designed and built. It means to be moved to the stage where you are overcome the problems of focus, exposure, and you begin to try to translate the images in our thoughts, our taste. If the results are not up to our expectations, credimi, which, at this stage, it is only the lesser of two evils. It 's the case of this photo, in my humble opinion, does not have the strength to express and convey what was your intentions. Do not forget that the observer has not experienced the fatigue of climbing has not been cold, has not breathed that clear air. Probably, your climbing partner will appreciate and will share with you the emotions that you described, but for a foreign audience is much more difficult and mediated. And 'here that the language of photography has to come out with such force that "nail" the audience and bring them into the thinking of the photographer. In this case, I guessed the title (it is often important to understand the photo). For the rest I think it's a picture that might find its place within a series. By itself, excuse me, do not tell me much. On the contrarI of others who have commented, I would not have decentralized the observer (I find it a trivial solution) but, on the contrary I would have centered, and shot perfectly (remember the tilolo: I and the Rose) . This would also give a justification for the choice to keep the subject out of focus. I find that the proportions of the subjects are incorrect: does not come out sufficiently the grandeur of the mountain. The choice of B & N could have her because, given your lead-in, but the realization is lackluster, perhaps lacks contrast, is too "gray" and flat. These notes are, in my opinion, valid also trying to look at the picture below viewpoint vintage because the effect, if you had not said, perhaps no one would have noticed. I conclude with a few words in general about the effects "special" that many here use to edit photos, to increasethe visual impact: We do a lot of attention, let's use them only when there is a reason that objectively justify them. Falling into kitsch, in bad taste, it is a risk always present!
A warm greeting.
Franco

With the wrong focal mean that I should have used a wide angle lens? In this case I answered earlier in Alebergamini, 17-40 came with too much stuff in the frame. As for decentrarmi you're absolutely right.


That kind of "decentralization" I've proposed only as an alternative and I agree with Jeronim about it being a bit 'trivial.
I realize that probably at the point where you were you would have included too much "noise" in the frame ... why not try
a different point then?
If your goal was to describe a certain feeling and a bond that at that time felt the mountain with the best
was trying to say, in terms of photography, in the best way possible.
When you wrote your introduction you have not tried to look up wordsright? The same applies in seeking the right image ;-)

I then pick up the intervention and also try to comment on the photos, I do it as honestly as possible.

The photos do not like, for the same number of reasons that you have mentioned and would add that it seems a bit 'no content.

That said, if it is true that photographers from only a year, I would say that you have all the time up front to improve yourself, give in!

;-)

Dear Franco thank you not only for having opened this space that he really felt the need, but also for taking the trouble to go browse through my galleries and I can confirm, I challenged a reflex for the first time just last summer, so I'm really happy that you have enjoyed some of my shots! I for now I only had time to visit your gallery and 2 landscape that mean? I'm really impressed by the beauty and the strength of your work.
I am also struck by the simplicity with which to explain the reason why I chose this photo, you've just hit the mark and have explained better than I could do myself, as if I were an open book. In a world where superficiality reigns demonstrates a capacity 'of analysis is not common.
Shall also be 'impressed by how you have structured your comments, the ability to read and photosgrasp the weak points in relation to the will of representation of the author. I can not do treasure your opinions and to reflect well on your points of view which I fully shared.
I began to see the shot proposed with different eyes and wonder "how did I not realizing it?" I think this is a great added value that can give you a forum like this, I know the development of critical thinking.
One question: both you and Sabba I have pointed out that the proportion between me and the mountain is not correct, but since I could not get away from pdr worth a decent flight and that the tripod was at the limit, there is another way to change the aspect ratio?
Paco68, thank you for your frankness, I appreciated :-). How to crank it up, you can count on! ;-)
Thanks again to everybodythe analysis and for the valuable advice and thanks for the encouragement you have given me.
Greetings

I'm doing a ride on the photographs proposals in the post www.juzaphoto.com/topic2.php?l=it&t=583305&show=1
Me too I note the defects that others have already pointed out in the comments that precede mine: your central unit to focus disturbs the composition, the conversion b / w is not very strong and does not bring out the vintage character that you wanted to finally get the fact that you are fully turned towards the mountain instead of having a glimpse of at least one profile.
Are not able to offer you a more articulated, like you are a novice and unaccustomed to read a photograph as it should.
Hello
Barbara

Hello Barbara, nice to meet you :-)
Do not worry, I have difficulties to comment on a photo in an articulate and especially after reading the comments of other users, I realized how superficial it was my way to "read" a photograph.
Ben is then the opportunity offered by Franco within this space to read comments well-structured and strive to better analyze the photographs, I believe that the development of critical skills and as a result of self-criticism are essential to learn how to shoot better. ;-)
Thank you for visiting
All the best, Federico :-)
