I have a good friend called Tom who is a great photographer and just recently he did a couple of photos for me. They'll end up on a promotional flyer, well one or two will but I really think he's done a top job.
Tell us whatcha think!

And finally...I was demonstrating "Double dealing" but the camera didn't pick it up very well...which I guess is a good thing on my part!

I like the third one and but I'm not too keen on the composition of the others.

The portrait would have looked better if you had been looking into the lens while the remaining card photo's make your handling look a little untidy if I may say.

Great black and whites with spot on exposure though.

Fair point Dat, to be fair, their are several dozen more to sift through and find the best of each shot, but these seemed well exposed so I quickly uploaded them!

I think the third one would work well with some text in the dead space at the bottom.

I do agree with you on that one and I think that your friend has got the exposure spot on.

The first one looks as if you're about to drop the cards :lol:

Get a few books from the library on portrait photography and try to copy the composition.

I see I'm helping you out in the third one

by **Lenoir** » Jun 8th, '09, 19:46

Oh yes.

I concur that hte second onw would look better with you looking into the lense as that it wil lfeel like you are giving the viewer your attnetion even though it is just a picture.
