In between this activity we have been to Sydney a couple of times to visit family, I took these shots of the wife's nephew last month, he is wearing number 9.
Waiting for a run.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

A portrait
It has been a long time science I have posted anything. I quit work late last year and have never been busier, I had a shoulder reconstruction, then restarted the restoration of our old Queenslander, went on cruise with the wife in February, shot a wedding in March, continued with the house and we are going on a 72 day trip to Canada and some of the US at the end of the week. I have also been doing a bit of motorcycle rider training to keep a few dollars coming in and sold a few photos to people who have been doing the courses.

Re: A portrait
I prefer the second photo here. Now, my advice is to make it square leaving the left eye of your subject bang in the middle of the two thirds. Then you can even convert it to B&W and it will work beautifully. I believe a square format either colour or B&W will improve this portrait.
Re: A portrait
I like the technical quality of the second shot. Just beautiful.

Re: A portrait
I agree on #2 but I am amused by #1 where #9 appears to have only one leg

Thanks for the comments guys. I have now done a square crop B&w of number 2 but cannot upload as telstra has disconneted my internet for the last 30 hours to do maintainence. Not happy as I have work to get done and download gst stuff before I go away on Sunday. Did not pay much attention to the one leg in the first shot until it was pointed out.
Thanks again. Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Craig

Re: A portrait
Internet came back up this afternoon after being out for about 60 hours, just in time to do some last minute business stuff before holidays.
Anyway here is the b&w version for Zafra, not cropped exactly as suggested but close.  Craig

Re: A portrait
I prefer this version to the one above because I found the colours were taking away interest from
the subject. With the B&W you just can't help but looking at the boy's eyes and his expression. Well done!
Re: A portrait
