Description

Sigma 105mm EX DG Macro. Post in Photoshop. So this is the last one i have for you all. This guy was dressed in lettle more than a loincloth and the feathers in his hair - at the start of the event he had warpaint on - but as you can see that soons came off in favour of shaving foam. There were about 3 of us looking like the press taking photos - he saw me pointing the camera at him and turned to pose, trying to look like a native indian warrior, i think he did a good job of it too. I also think he wanted to see if he would get in the newspapers - this was the photo i was going to sell to the local press because i dont think anyone else got it, and it sums up the spirit of the occasion :) Anyway - thanks for stoping by to take a look and thankyou for your kind and encouraging comments on the whole of the series. For this one i would love your honest opinion in a critical manner - i like this shot but there are some things which bug me about it, i want to know if i am not alone. Enjoy!

This is pretty hilarious, and by all means a great shot -- it doesn't look like a pose at all, just someone calling out his arch-enemey for one final battle to the death with fireballs. The only thing I see that could possibly be "wrong" with this shot is that his hand is kinda in the way of his face, but although noticable, I don't think anyone will care. Keep up the good work!
