Not sure if I am in any position to C & C... I agree that the BG is quite messy... BTW, bro... number your pics, it helps everyone when it comes to comments... The first 2 looks like snap shots... model does not connect with the viewer... Edited by way2see, Sep 14 2009, 09:40 AM.

@ Excel-Glsi: Btw, it was taken on the sunny afternoon around 4pm. Guess I should turn down my exposure level. |

Very good first attempts. ![]() The Barrage is a difficult place to shoot - especially if it's during weekends - it would be a very crowded place, and no amount of Bokeh would be able to isolate your subject. It's best if you can do your shoots there during weekdays, either during daybreak or sunset timings, those timings would provide very nice, horizontal rays that bring out your subject as well as the surrounding architecture. ![]() I should go down to recce a bit sometime... |

![]() Like this one, you managed to isolate the subject. The shot can be better if the subject is moved to the left instead of in the centre of the frame. Also watch out for the horizon, make sure that it is level and does not cut the subject on the head or neck. Do number your pictures so that others can refer to them easily.
