Brooklyn B-boy

It's been cold as hell lately, so I haven't been feeling inspired to take many photos at all. This weekend was pretty nice out though and I had a couple days off, so I filled them with photo shoots. It's nice to feel like my creative energy is spinning again. As well as taking the photo, I also did the fashion styling for this shoot, and particularly liked this shot:

Nice to see you back Dan; I like the shot, but I'm not sure I like the background. The OOF buildings or whatever they are sort of grab my eye.

Looks a tiny bit tilted but other than that, it looks good to me. Love the pop of color and the faint hint of graffiti on the wall behind him that mirrors his cap.

How goes the internship?? And have you started walking a lot faster?

I love the color and the stance.
I do agree it looks a bit tilted and there seems to be a lot of not-him.
Have you considered this at 4x5 and removing much of the top?

The internship goes well! I've been on a break for a while because very little happens in the fashion industry in January, but things will be picking up again in the beginning of February.

I ride my skateboard everywhere, so even the people who walk fast aren't getting out of my way quick enough!

Thanks for the feedback and the welcome!

His missing arm is bothering me the most out of the image

 

[mmaria]

glad to see you back

as for the photo, I want to see that arm. nice colors

Decent shot. I like the effect of the frost and over cast sky. It really makes the saturation pop.

However I would suggest leveling this out and trying to center him just a bit better.

Personally the tilt doesn't bother me, especially with the styling. I appreciate the opinions though.
