[Leica] More Barcelona pics

[luisripoll at telefonica.net (Luis Ripoll)]

Dear Ted,

I really appreciate your comments and experimented advice, believe me that
your observations are very important for me and I try to keep on my mind
when shootting.

You are abosultely right on your comments and I valorize them as real very
useful help!. Sometimes I'm timid in front of the people or I wan't to be an
agressive papparazzo, I'm not sure, I think that I've shot this picture
without raising the camera to my eyes, as you know better than me, sometimes
you should decide to take the shot even the risk of the imperfection, on the
other hand the difference in great picture and a good one is a very subbtle
line, as you have very well defined!.

I'll post again this one correcting a little the perspective.

For the other things, I say you again tahnk you very much for your kind
words, comments, and "again & again", useful advice!

Gracias
Saludos cordiales
Luis

Hi Luis,

Interesting big city life moments. It seems you have the knack or feeling
for shooting street people without annoying them while you take their
pictures. A bonus for people pictures anytime, any place.

 

A small point about your Italian tourists. You didn't hold the camera
straight! We, that includes me, who work with the M cameras have a tendency
to let the camera tilt slightly from the top right corner forward and this
shows up as in this picture down the right hand edge of the frame and the
wall.

 

This is a nit picking comment, but holding the camera straight by making a
quick check at the viewfinder edges makes the difference between a picture
with no nit picking negatives and one about the photographers perfect
ability to hold the camera straight.

 

Yep it's a tiny observation on this one, but it makes the difference between
a photographer who does it perfect with a quick check in the viewfinder and
a photographer who just snaps away with no concern for his talents. 

 

I know this is something else to think about when shooting, but trust me it
matters.

 

Just think of me as a tough assed photo editor! ;-)
