Heyyyy we both did the Farmer's Market! There's a mix of focuses here. One kind of focuses on the vendors, and the other focuses on the event-goers. The way they're posted feels kind of split (event-goers make up the top 5, vendors make up the bottom 5), I would have tried to mix them up. Other than that, good photos. I like the ones that focus on the actual people. They feel less like still-lifes and have a lot more emotion to them.
Some of these have a really nice contrast between areas that are in focus and areas that are blurred, which I think are stronger than the ones that don't have that contrast. All the images are well done but the ones that grab my attention most are the ones that feel more like a captured moment in time than a still-life or posed photo. The fourth is a good example of that. Also it's a dog so...win-win imo.
You captured movement and energy really well in the photos with people. I also like abstract quality of the vendor images, cropping them even closer could make them stronger, especially the herbs and mushrooms. The third photo is spectacular, you captured a really interesting moment in time. It has both movement as well as the stillness of the little girl and the combination is really successful.
Many of the pictures feel very lively and the fourth picture was definitely the most eye-catching to me. The different circular objects and shapes in the third picture makes it a very playful image when presented with that arrangement of children and motion.
Cannot disagree with the previous comments about the feeling of vibrant energy and movement throughout your photos. It also connects the subjects and focuses of your photos as they certainly differ from each another.
My favorite shot is of all the hula hoops! It creates a very interesting repeating shape and I appreciate how you experimented with shutter speed to capture the looping movement. The photo of the man interacting with his dog is precious and is a great example of getting close to capture a moment that tells a story
These are so great, there is a lot of movement in the photo with the kids and hula hoops. The white bouncy balls in this shot make for an interesting composition. Be careful to not get too blurry of shots; I had this problem. Your image of the girl and hula hoops is great though because she came out clear and her hoops blurred with movement.
You have some very nice compositions here! I think the 3rd and 4th photos are working the most. The 3rd has really nice balance and pops of highlights, making it very interesting to view. The 4th tells us so much about this man and his lifestyle. I like how you captured little moments like this because I think it really shows us what the crowd is like at the farmer's market.

ReplyDeleteThe second and third photos are the most successful. The movement and motion is captured well and gives an energetic and playful mood to the location.
