A bit of a contrived entry for this weeks theme.....but an important lesson on getting people to see what you want them to see.......if you see what I mean......

Ron,
The composition is nice. The only things that I'm not 100% confortable is the male model looking at something else while trying to convince the woman. It takes the credibility of the scene. Technically, the shot is very good.
Cheers,
Have a nice weekend.

For the clothing they are wearing, what I see is that she wants to go out, and he wants to stay home. While she is looking at him. What is he looking at?
I like the lighting and sharpness, but not my dried brain that can not see the important lesson you mention on your note. Can you explain it?

Hello Ron
An intense scene of a man trying to prove his point, yet both look like they are enjoying themselves.
Good composition with lots of clarity. The B & W works well with this.
Good shot for the theme

YOu are quite right -- the fingers are perfectly positioned on the rule of thirds and despite the expressions on the two faces, my eyes keep wandering back to those fingers
Very clever illustration

Good range of black and white tones, I think I see what is distracting him!

Hello Ron

What a superb sharp and well detailed capture here, good use of the rule of thirds and very well suited to greyscale. I agree on other comments that his eyes are not focused on the woman but the clarity and shine in the eye is just superb.


TFS and for joining in the theme

kind regards Helen
