That is one of the biggest problems I'v found with scanning slides. Micro bits of dust that you just can't get rid of without scratching the slide itself. Some PP applications have an option to ...

I've gone on record as not being a fan of film because of the cost, and how that directly restricts my ability to shoot as it restricted my ability to learn. But I full believe that someone should ...

Discreetly

I like the composition and color... I just wish it was sharp enough to allow closer examination of sign lettering and other details.

The customer isn't 'acting lordly', he is sitting in the place provided BY the shoe shine so the shine can easily access his shoes. I don't see it as any issue of inequality, myself.

A shame that the woman on the left is in such an awkward position and can't be cropped out. I'd consider cropping out the woman in the distance off to the right.

I like the sentiment expressed in the image. Very nice.

So many shots here lately with the subjects' feet cut off.

Not one person in those photos looks the least bit happy. Glad to not be one of them. All that concrete and asphalt and dull buildings just seem depressing.

I like the shadows, but the motion blur is not good. Not needed as some would suggest 'to convey a sense of motion', we can see what he's doing.

Warm up your treadmills.

Unfortunately, often that is the only thing IN the shot, someone using a cell phone, and that's not very interesting.

I am a big fan of Canon SOOC colors but there's darn little color in this shot, and the subject is so dark you can scarcely make out any detail. I was able to raise the shadows in PP enough to see ...

Once again, photos of peoples' backsides. Just not interesting to me.

To be honest, backsides of people - at a distance - simply don't hold much interest for me.

Hmm, the only thing(s) in the photo that might have shown some interesting detail are blurred. Something amazing, those "L" structures have been standing for over a century just as they are today, ...
