About Subject background: After a suggestion of Hugo, I made a rework of this picture (http://www.usefilm.com/image/573234.html) to upload it in the best picture project. hope you like my PS attack =)

PS concept: different re/un-cropping, different work on lighting.

As always: Honest feedback highly appreciated.

Way to go Thilo! This one is on a whole different level. Surreal, alien, and possibly metaphysical. Congrats on the BIP!!

A man arriving into town looking for his long lost lady friend. But who knows what the situation with the lady is - Will she welcome him or Will she reject him......For the answer - READ ON.

Wonderful image for a novel title.

For some reason this image reminds me of ET (yes, the Spielberg movie...), and this, bearing in mind I cried on that movie, it is a very very good thing...

Hi Thilo,
I like the atmosphere that you made. Beyond the dark there is the light. He waits with the hope to be illuminated...this is the essence of our life!
Bravo.

Hi Hugo,

I was sure that you won't like the centering. =)
My reason for doing so is the shadow casting. It's straight downward, so that the off-centering in the first image produces a disharmony in my opinion that won't fit with the subject. If the shadow would be different and not so straightforward, the off-centering would definitely be THE choice. just my 2 cents though =)

anyway, thanks for the encouragement, my friend. your different and valuable opinions helped me a lot the past months. I won't miss them =)

take care and my best wishes for 2005,

thilo

Hi Thilo, This one is definately eledgible for a third BIP in a row...;o) I do believe this is the most dramatic and strong shot, and thus YOUR best shot of 2004, althoug here are quite a few close "runners-up"...

In comparison to the one you posted initially, I do think the work on the toning is much more subtle and stronger, but centering the compsoition is not quite an improvement (from my point of view...;) Nonetheless I still think it's awesome!

Cheers,

Hugo

Hi Pinar,

thanks for your feedback.

as for the PS intervention: To be honest, the PS part is relatively small here. It's huge if you compare the original version with the new one. that's the reason for the "PS attack" in the about =).

take care

Dear Maja,

if I could answer this question ;-)

To be honest: I don't know it. My first entry was a completely new picture. my second and my third an old one...

thx for the feedback!

hope to see some pictures of you soon.

This one has more impact, the figure is in greater prominence, and the dark line from it comes straight at the viewer.

Horror movie! :) Nice PS work!

I'll use this space to ask about this project.
What is the point of this project?
Should we upload new photo, or photo which we think is our best from portfolio?

Regards

I remember this shot Thilo... It was the first time I view your pictures... It was incredibly beautiful, and still is incredibly beautiful... Love the E.T. form in the background... Excellent lighting... I like very much the cropping amd the lighting... and if you would make me decide for either one, it will be a very hard choice for me... :)

Keep the good work my friend...

Cheers,

MaLuisa
