Sunset Portrait

[Mad Aussie]

I snapped this shot of my daughter this afternoon

I can't critique, I'm not at that level, but I have a question for you, just to learn from it.
Why did you chose this angle? I mean, it wasn't better to see also the shape of the nose, leaps, chin?

Thank you

[Marko]

I really like this one. It has a very pleasant and calm feel and i love the colour. Your signature though, for me, is too large and is distracting.

[tirediron]

Agree with Marko on both counts, however I wouldn't find just a little more detail on the face a bad thing either.

The face thing ... I was squashed right up against the fence and that colour in the sky was a small section just visible past the house roof line.

I chose that angle because I wanted to catch her looking at the colour, not posing or looking another way.

The signature isn't part of the photo and if I make it too small I might well just people steal the photo as is.

I read somewhere that a signature is no good unless it's right across the whole photo so as one could not crop it out..blah blah blah. Don't know if it's true.

Just trying to get one made for myself

Loove the colors!

For me, theft, like privacy is something people just need to get over if they want to enjoy their time on the Internet.
Although I do not in anyway condone theft, it will simply continue to happen.

For me the best protection (from people printing your quality photos) is a smaller sized photo and personally, I rarely upload any photo greater than 150K. A signature too large on an image can easily wreck it imo.
