Counting your votes, it's quite clear that the 'twos' have it !<BR/><BR/>Isabella, the expression must be 'trop fauchée pour aller chez Fauchon'<BR/><BR/>Maxime delivered the most thorough analysis of the reasons why the second photo was the best. If you want a translation, just ask me !<BR/><BR/>The thing is, this shot was not a well-thought balanced composition, it was an emergency photo: The guy started from the top of the building and whizzed down the facade at incredible speed. I scrambled out of my car and ran towards him while grabbing my camera... and just caught him before his disappeared behind the tree below. This was actually an action shot ! <BR/><BR/>I will make no further comment on my running for Aussie men in shorts LOLNathalie H.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16806509041466785588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33308540.post-35219333146825335512007-03-22T06:49:00.000+11:002007-03-22T06:49:00.000+11:00Merci à tous de vos avis, il est clair que dans le...Merci à tous de vos avis, il est clair que dans le vote c'est la deuxième qui l'emporte !<BR/><BR/>Cergie, tu m'as fait rire !

Merci !<BR/><BR/>Maxime, ton commentaire est le plus pro de tous, j'ai pris une leçon aujourd'hui. <BR/><BR/>Le plus marrant c'est qu'en fait c'est une composition non choisie : ce type est descendu à fond depuis le haut de l'immeuble, je me suis précipitée pour sortir mon appareil et j'ai réussi à le chopper juste avant qu'il ne soit caché par l'arbre en dessous. Ca ne se voit pas, mais c'est une photo d'action !<BR/><BR/>La première (en fait prise plus tard, le temps que j'approche) aussi d'ailleurs, car il n'arrêtait pas de se ballader de droite à gauche...<BR/><BR/>Sur la première, j'aimais les jambes nues et le contraste entre zones de reflets et zones floues de mousse.<BR/>Sur la deuxième bien sur, ce rappel orange, celui qui m'a fait sortir de ma voiture en courant et me précipiter...Nathalie H.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16806509041466785588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33308540.post-82444813677293151042007-03-22T05:16:00.000+11:002007-03-22T05:16:00.000+11:00Un peu de sérieux, pour changer.Je préfère la seco...Un peu de sérieux, pour changer.<BR/>Je préfère la seconde :<BR/>- pour l'équilibre des couleurs : plus de bleu et surtout plus d'orange, deux couleurs parfaitement complémentaires<BR/>- pour la composition : la photo se lit parfaitement en diagonale.<BR/>- pour le cadrage : la légère contre-plongée donne mieux l'impression de hauteur et élimine les reflets parasites des voitures.<BR/>- enfin parce que le sujet principal est positionné - presque- à l'endroit où l'oeil va naturellement le chercher soit dans un tiers d'angle de l'image: si tu divise une photos en 3 tiers en hauteur et en largeur, tu obtiens quatre points d'intersection, qui sont les endroits où l'oeil se pose instinctivement.<BR/>Ugh !
