Below are the contacts of the final 15 images shot for this assignment. As this is the last stage before the final submission, I guess they could be called semi-finalists. All these images have been processed using Lightroom and Silver FX to replicate pushed Tri-X film.
I like this set of images, and I was hard to pick a starting team from the squad to use another sporting metaphor
Of the discounted images here are a few reasons:
No1 while I like the image I only got one shot off on my iPhone – not there on composition and focus
No5 & 7 these had the same issue a little too busy
No nine the man on the phone is with one of the shoppers which s why I took the shot however o reflection nothing is tying him to her, therefore, looks too random
No ten the subject is too lost in the surrounding crowd
No 11 no engagement with subject
No 13 I can’t quite but a word to this other than too generic
No 14 again no engagement with subjects,
