Excellent.

Less the sentences, just 1 word will do.

AND... did u study this book for ur lit class or wat? how come u are so familiar with it and know when to use the quotes so aptly?!

I get the idea, but the picture doesn't work for me. The vignet effect should be lessened. For the picture itself, my focus is entirely on the elderly man's shoulder because it has the brightest and sharpest point of all.

OT: a rarer sight, a furrypaws posting!!

Sometimes, it's not the technical details, but the moment captured.
The man holding the umbrella, the lady helping him take a photo.
Look closely and u can see the camera's strap is actually hung around the man's left shoulder.

Hey! I just read the book, Tuesdays with Morrie. Great stuff! But there's one minor spelling mistake. "Your values must be alike", not "You values...". Then when giving credit, just say " -Tuesdays with Morrie, Mitch Alborn" everything else is redundant.

I also agree with foxtwo that the man's shoulder distracts the eye too much and vignetting is too much.

IMHO, I think that the faces should be brightened, and the rest of the photos darkened.

Hope this helps.

hmm.. noticed both the strap & camera, but didn't connect the two 'cos didn't expect the strap to be so long.

Anyway, since Eyesthruthelens did do some photoshop, I'm just commenting on that.

Cheers, tomorrow's a day away from the weekend.
