Which one would you print and put on your wall if you had to choose?<br /><br />@ Marion : I guess, number 2 is indeed too obvious. Thanks for the compliments!<br /><br />@ Saranna : I agree with you too - it's interesting how the framing/cropping can change the way we perceive/understand a picture (set up v. spontaneous). I should also try the crop that you suggest.davidikushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122152277968126355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100396007710899380.post-83009975355577105192010-09-18T14:26:50.704+02:002010-09-18T14:26:50.704+02:00I think in #1 there's more of an accidental mo...I think in #1 there's more of an accidental moment luckily caught on camera, whereas the 2nd looks more like a set-up. The first one is maybe more playful and it appeals to me more. If I'd crop the photo, I'd have cut off the top of the first image to make a square picture so that it lines just above the blonde head and flag on the right-side. That way it wouldn't have lost that magical moment, but would have been "tighter".<br /><br />In short: I'm going with #1.<br /><br />ps. I really enjoy these questions and especially reading everyone else's responces. Keep them coming!Sarannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01324603585428673033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100396007710899380.post-31251938511714945602010-09-18T11:00:15.849+02:002010-09-18T11:00:15.849+02:00Definitely number one.

If you want to...As always it depends on your goal.<br /><br />If you want to show the whole scene the first. E.g. for a newspaper article of the CSD - Parade, I'd take this.<br /><br />But if you think of it as a kind of portrait, than it is the second. For example for a CD-Cover of "this singer" I'd prefer the second.Sanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07921601042228589996noreply@blogger.com
