I got a proposal from "infernalord" (on Deviant Art) about one of my photograph.
I post here both original and modified side-by-side. I have my clear preference but I will be pleased to know your... Thanks.
Left or Right?
PS: The modified version suffers from JPEG edition.
I like the right version better on the sky and water, but there is a little too much contrast on the models body. I would make the contrast on the model's body closer to the one on the left.
the contrast in the right one makes the clouds and reflection pop a lot more. i want to say that the contrast on the body should come down a little, but it might contradict the reflection.
in my opinion it depends on the mood you want to express! the left is natural, beautiful a "normal" photo - the right is powerful and exciting. cheers ;)
I agree with kai. The left is more natural and invokes a softer, tender mood. The right is unnaturally crisp and creates a more intense mood. I like the left, but I am a natural light snob.
@all: thanks for the interesting point-of-view. For me, a photograph should first "access" the mind giving the (false) feeling of reality because only then imagination and so can start. The left one has this power on me.

RépondreSupprimerFor me, the left one, without any hesitation... but I am more into analog / film photographs so I prefer the more natural look ...
