I sneaked behind this nice tableau to record a man photographing a family.After posting this, I looked at it this morning and decided to re-crop it tighter, in the second photo.
What would you do? Show the context, as in the first photo, or crop to focus on the area of interest?
Cropping tight is usually best, but in this instance I think you got it right in the first shot. I'm confused, though. It looks like someone else (grandfather?) is photographing a mother and child with father looking on...
ReplyDeleteAnd the more I reflect about your worrying about reflections I think you should just post whatever you want when you want and let the pixels fall where they may! :-)
I also like the first photo better. The street and the onlooking father add something to the scene.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. First shot. The tree-lined street, the shops, the flowers, the parking meters, but especially the smiling dad approving of the scene. All those other details add a lot of interest without being cluttered or distracting.
ReplyDeleteGreat catch, too!!
I really like to take photos like that! You took a wonderful photo, Jack!
ReplyDeleteFirst one. The onlooker with the pushchair completes the shot.
ReplyDeleteI like the larger photo because you see the location and the other person lost in the smaller photo. Final answer.
