Looking to Both the Past and the Future Photo

Photographer’s Note

I took this while on a train from the black sea city of Constanta to the city of Iasi. This man had a very nice look to him and seemed quite an interesting subject, especially the way he would stick his hand at his side and look out the window.

Hi Sheri, the POV of your picture is nice. The picture looks little fuzzy. Increasing the contrast should help to make picture more clear.

Hello Sheri,

Good idea and emotional image, but it´s out of focus and so unsharp. Your picture also includes a lot of noise, maybe becourse of high ISO. Was it a bit dark overthere?
So i suggest smaller ISO and better focus.
Keep posting
Regards Jorbe

Low light? High iso? Bit of motion blur? I guess I shoot plenty of those. I like the image and the sort of texture that it has. It looks relatively sharp on the straight lines, but does not do a good job for the person. Maybe converting to black and white and adding contrast? I usually like a bit of fuzz and bite in my images, but I only shoot b&w film, so maybe that saves me...
