Hi Bryan,
Eye-catching photo indeed, very colourful and vibrant capture. Simple composition, but very nice. Focus and sharpness on the clown is perfect, well done! TFS.
Greetings,

Excellent photo Bryan, great vibrant colours and clear details, well photographed

Hello Bryan,

A bright, light-hearted shot bringing the humour of the clown into our homes.
You have cropped this sensitively and placed the figure perfectly in the frame for maximum impact.
Excellent dof.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

This is classic Bryan. The framing is topnotch, the colors are what I expect from a clown image, and I do like his downward gaze. Well done. And yes I saw the WS you did on 'Rachel' - looks great IMO. Best regards...

Hi Bryan,

This is alright but stop clowning about thought you were gonna take decent photaes lol.

Seriously this is a great shot the colours that he is wearing are very vibrant and the details are nice and sharp.I like the angle of shot the narrow dof is very pleasing and the details very sharp well done.

Regards
Jon

Hi Bryan,
Give me big hairy spiders any day - Clowns and ventriloquist dummies freak me out! Great colours tho, fantastic DoF and focus, I particularly like the way you have caught him looking down. TFS

Now is this Jon posing again?? Great job on this one Bryan. Your somewhat low perspective is great, and of course, the colors are fantastic .. really stand out against the somewhat muted colors of the BG. Comp is great too .. good job.

Despite a rainbow of colours theres always something a little sad about clowns. Reminiscent of the song "Send in the clowns" Good capture.
warm regards

Clowns scare me! You never know who, or what, is behind all that makeup. As you've said before, "Not my cup o' tea". Still a very colorful and well framed photo!!!
