Just trying some different lighting and cropping. Have at it.

Hey Preston,

I generally like this shot. I think I would crop it tighter and have less negative space in the background. I realize that this would have an impact on the format of the image, but I am assuming this is a crop of a larger file anyway. Having said that, I am a sucker for black on black and respect how hard it is to do properly. Did MoJoe have a reddish tinge to his coat?

Preston,
I really do like this image. It says so much. Style, depth, & intensity... yet understated.

If I had to pick it apart, the only thing I would suggest is to drop the "Preston" off the first line of the watermark. I think it would make the vertical and horizontal lines flow better. It would also add to the "low key" feel. Visually, it pops a bit too much for me.


FOR THE LOVE OF DOG!!!

Thank you, Fretless. I agree, I should have toned down my signature for online posting. On large format prints the signature is much smaller and simply there to establish my brand and copyright.
