FACE TO FACE Photo

Photographer’s Note

this is a detail work from museum of Cairo;the position resembles me social relations.
we know human is a social creature and it's a social life ,we all live in.everyday we happen to share different moments with different people in our daily life and we should always try to keep our head straight,never do anything that would make us ashamed against the others.we should always be able to look straight into the eye of the other people.
In this pic,the figures stand face to face and look straight into the eye of each other and well symbolizes the stuation I've mentioned above.

Composition is nice. But i think there is some sharpness problem. Maybe you could get rid of it by cropping more from the bottom.
Anyhow nice picture with a good note.

Hi Nejat.
I don't have a problem with the sharpness . . . the smoothness of the statues is very strongly evident, such that I can comfortably ignore the less-than-perfect-focus of the lower half of the pic.
But what strikes me is the emotion and life-like interaction I see generated by two inanimate objects! The close-up gazing into another's eyes is an extremely powerful social interaction, and the positioning of these statues generates great power accordingly. Truly amazing, and well captured.
regards,
Sheldon (shel)

Good idea and nice close in. Nice reflections of light on the heads of the sculptures. Interesting note too. Well done

In your face. This is a most unusual and very intersting capture you have made it good by your POV and especially your note. Well done & thanks.

Well,Nejat.
What I see is confrontation rather than communication with each other. Women,eh? (giggling).
But the picture,Nejat. The picture! Once you spot it, you have to answer it. The seductivness of this softie yellows can't be passed by.
