[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 12269, member: 1573"] Denis, I love the original version. It tells a story and captures a mood. I think the curves of the saxaphone are important --flow of the curve seems to tie the whole image together. I also like the light and shadows on the pant leg. I think empty space and shadows always add drama to an image and your caption certainly matches the image --it's ethereal and mysterious. The catchlights are perfect. Joseph's crop is excellent if you wanted the entire focus to be your son's face and it does change the image completely. The only thing I would change in your image is to crop a little from the left and the top possibly to take out some of the black area, and also smooth out the rectangular square of light on his chin. (isn't it funny how everybody finds something different to distract them ) My 2 cents worth. it's a great photo. Best Regards [/QUOTE]
