Hi Stefan, my bother's name, too. Great to see your take on Magic Hour. I like the randomness of the people - one clearly resting in the shadow and one emerging and looking at the sun. A real sense of "being there." Thanks, Leora Too bad I cannot rate this, but I can put it in my favorites and visit Joshua Tree, CA.
Hugo - thanks for taking time to comment. It is completely unposed and it is that randomness that I liked, but I understand how you could arrive at your view of it.
First of all thanks for your comment on "communication III". I've been toying with fill flashes ever since. I do think it didn't work out in this picture, but I do like the effect on other (more dynamic) occasions, such as parties (see attached image)
Interesting photo; I like the perspective, but the people on top seem to be a bit out of focus; could be the scan as well. The persons do add a sence of size; which works very well. Still, the people seem to wander around aimlessly. Have you tried to make them pose a bit more?
