Aline Member	# Posted: 8 Jul 12 12:19 Reply Martin, Spontaneously, I would have chosen a vertical format. But I think the subject is too close for this option, so ... I don't know. (I changed a bit the levels.)
trudy tuinstra Member	# Posted: 8 Jul 12 12:31 Reply If you want to tell a story I think the second is better, if you want to put the man in the spotlights you have to go for the first. I would go for the second picture.
Aline Member	# Posted: 8 Jul 12 16:10 Reply Trudy is right. After a second look, I prefer the second picture, more dynamic.
A.Miguel Oliveira Member	# Posted: 8 Jul 12 17:59 Reply I'd go for the second with some cropping, as Aline did, though in hasselblad's way (1:1) I think here the rule of the thirds helps in the dynamic Trudy speaks about. And only the 1:1 format is possible with the original pic taking in consideration what is said above. Hugs to you 3
zoidberg Moderator	# Posted: 8 Jul 12 21:41 Reply agree with Miguel's crop!! I never use 1:1 aspect ratio but I think here is the best choice!
