Shopping at Tesco's Photo

Photographer’s Note

Taken at Brooklands Tesco, near the site of the old Brooklands racing track. I'm not sure about this photo, what do people think? What could I have done to improve it?

I hope you like the photo and I look forward to your comments :-)

Hi Andrew. This is a nice 'daily life' picture. I like the tunnel vision. The shot would be stronger if you made the shot symmetric and enhanced the definiton. I did a workshop.

andrew, this is an interesting idea but I guess it does not come out very well..
I am not the most authorized critic here but I can tell you my points..
- it is very crowded here
- contrast does not help the crowded part
- it is aimed to be graphical so please try to improve the framing and horizon level..(betrolucci did a ws while I am writing :)

Hey Andrew | I LOVE this shot. It just makes me laugh - I feel like a shopping trolley that has been deserted in Tesco, waiting for a nice person to take me shopping so I can people watch.... please don't delete it! -Lynn

No, please dont delete this photo. I think your idea of this composition is good, and shows us on TE about your part of the world. England has many cloudy days, which is hard for lighting conditions. Perhaps if you used a flash, the colours would be brighter. This shot has a nice perspective view. Well seen.

As i sad, yo have a nice idea here. Thre are only a few things you may want to think of. Bert mentioned symmetry and enhanced defenition and i'd like to add a bit of sharpness as well. But remember, these are our personal opinions. The most important is that you like the picture. We can only give you ideas and suggestion. Did a simular WS to bring out the potentioal.

Ps. If you feel you want to delete the photo, why not do a re-post instead? I'm out of points for the day. I'll have to come back tomorrow or after the week end.
