It's Bad For Ya...which crop is better?

C&C Welcome...

#1

#2...With this one, I'm trying to show that it's on a ledge, not the ground...

 

[spiffybeth]

is that on gum?

and i dont think knowing its on a ledge rather than the ground matters one way other other. id go with the first.

 

[Sideburns]

my eye wanders in both...I dono why.
I personally don't think it makes much impact as art...but if you have a purpose for it...that's great. If you like it, that's also great. I just don't like it. Hope to see more from you, though!

They both look really gray to me. Maybe up the contrast a bit? Agree with spiffybeth - doesn't make much difference to me knowing its on a ledge.

 

[Trenton Romulox]

Yeah, I agree, too many middle grays. You gotta get that high contrast 'pop'!

 

[Papajon]

I don't agree, show more of the edge of the ledge...lol
Lower the camera angle, get just a little more depth of field.
Just my 2 cents.

 

[Mathias13]

thanks everybody....
a bit more contrast and a wee bit difference in colour temp..

Try that same contrast change on everything except the butt. And it possible, re-shoot getting more of the ledge in the shot to provide some reference and perspective.
