Finding the balance Photo

Photographer’s Note

It is important to start early if you going to be good on something.

The original of this photo is very nice but I had some problems to find the right contrast and sharpnes. I wanted his expression to be clear and in the same time not get too high contrast on his clothes.

Elisabet, I am afraid your scanner lets light passing through... A pity, because your shot is really nice and well caught. I tried a little workshop to improve it a bit.

Putting aside issues with low contrast, excellent, very dynamic shot.

Do something with your scanner :)

This is so sweet. I like his little tongue out of his mouth showing the concentration and how difficult this is foro him. You really caught the action here.
Now I think something could be done about the contrast and colors, I'll try to do a WS.

What a wonderful image! Your pp works well. But the main thing is the capturing of a moment in time, the split second pose and the expression on his face. Well done!!!
