Hey guys I shot these over this past weekend.

3.

Do you use a P&S? I would like tosee more of a blurred background on one and two... maybe even three too, but 3 is my fav. I don't like the pp onthem but that's just MHO

(Excuse my keyboard/typos. My son spilled OJ onmy keyboard)

I think they would be more powerful if the subject where placed off to one side of the tracks. also tell him to pull his pants up sag is out. The 3rd is the best.

Sorry, but I have to be honest--the first pose looks like he could be taking a pee. :???: Otherwise, I like what you've done in your post-processing--looks very warm, very nice tones.

i thought the same thing, i think its do to how baggy his pants are, makes it looked like he had it pulled down to go pee lol.

i think two would look nice if he was beside the track like he was waiting for the train versus being on the tracks.

i like 3

He definitely looks like he is taking a pee in the first one. But I also agree with him being beside the tracks.

 

[8ball]

Thanks guys! That was also my first thougth when I saw one it looked like he was peeing

Also this is my first real shoot on a person. Haven't really tried the whole portrait side beofre so I figured why not give it a shot

 

[8ball]

Now I can't tell exactly what but I fee like maybe the pose on this one is akward.
what would you have dont Pose wise as well as edit wise?

This is actually better than the others except for the tilt and I would have place him in the lower third instead of the upper third.

 

[filmshooter]

I like the last one best. He can use my belt if he needs too. I agree on the tilt and him being in the upper third being a bit odd.

Maybe a little wider shot, camera level with the tracks, down at a kneeling position to shoot with his feet closer to the bottom of the frame an a bit more negative space above him?

I say a bit wider of a shot so you have a little more option on cropping in PP if it's not exactly as you want it to be. I have a habit of shooting a bit wide now a days so I can crop if I don't exactly like the framing. Then again I shoot film not digital, so it costs me more to go re-shoot something aha

Other than the tilt and him being a little to high up in the frame it's an excellent shot though!


Edit: Also maybe try a few (be safe playing on tracks!) with you laying in a prone position between the rails shooting him standing, walking down the tracks both away from and toward you, crossing the tracks. I just like those low to the ground kind of candid but planned motion shots. Eh, I'm weird I know.

What lenses do you have from your camera and do you have any EXIF info to go with the shots?
