New Joiners - People #371

I like the black and white tones to this image and the beautiful empty coast. It would be great to see a little more profile of your subject, turning in towards camera so we get a bit more profile and see his contemplation!

I love this shot and your interaction with the farmer has paid off. It looks like you've allowed yourself time to compose him and the scene in the lovely soft light you waited for. We can rush so often when we take a portrait but this has that quality of thought. The black and white works well as does the cat creeping towards camera inquisitively! Well done.

A very thoughtful shot both in sentiment and composition. Your son sits perfectly between the post and tree. It has a timeless quality to it which I really like and think it represents being outside during these lockdown times rather well.

Wonderful colours in this shot! Both people have interesting expressions, a wonderful smile and the setting looks intriguing. If you photograph them again it may be good to try some separation between the subjects and giving some more space around them to reveal the background.

Striking portrait, the light on his face is really stunning. Its clearly quite harsh sunlight but you've controlled the highlights and shadows very well keeping that great tone in his face. The black and white treatment preset is a winner for this shot and I love the subtle grain in the sky.

Amazing detail in this shot and I like the composition. I'm interested in the 3 separate scenes being played out by the locals and tourists. A little lift in contrast/levels in post production would benefit the shot and a slight rotate otherwise great travel shot.

This is a striking photo and I admire the reason for creating it which adds to its strength. The light on the subject against the dark sky is fantastic. I think I would crop the right side to remove the back half of the cow, otherwise great shot. Let us hope she'll be playing her violin to a packed auditorium soon.

Love this musical scene, you have really got inside the soul of it. The centre player catching your lens is great as are both the expressions of the players either side. Joyful shot and works well in black and white.

Shooting on film/polaroid is a challenge, a good one in this digital age when everything is so accessible and easy to produce. I hope you carry on shooting these, although expensive, a good tight edit of 10 shots will make a great series. I hope your boyfriend isn't still too fed up.

What a fantastic landscape and cloud formation. With the cowboy in silhouette it gives us that iconic look of the West. I think a few tweaks in photoshop or lightroom or on a phone app could really enhance this. A slight turn anti clockwise to straighten and some contrast to help lift the details in the landscapes.

Its good to see a busy street again! Ive looked at this for a while now, so many mini scenes being played out within the shot. I like what you've done with the technique and the hyper real colours that its produced. It would make a fantastic large scale print.

I love everything about this photo, it immediately made me smile. The boys eyes and smile draw you in as does the clever depth of field to obscure the background which I can't quite make out... The relationship to nature with the flowers and leaf give a very fresh and contemporary feel, great composition and black and white tones.
