I think this was executed very nicely! Any more blur would be too much.

Your description, however, seems like it doesnt really fit. In the photo it looks like he is looking at the gates to a cemetary...why would he want to focus his path toward death? I think it should be reworded a bit, but I really like the idea. The composition and the color tone are great!

No, no! Those gates lead to the oldest University in Portugal! Though sometimes being at the University can be painful

But thanks a lot for your comment!

Haha! My mistake. That makes much more sense! I only thought that because it looks very similar to a cemetary gateway I live near.

The glasses are great!
Nice concept and well done.
Maybe crop a bit of the left side?

I wanted to keep an 1.50 - 1 ratio, to give this wide feeling of many distractions to both sides, making it harder to focus any goal. Thank you for your feedback!

O pormenor de se ver a paisagem meia desfocada através dos óculos faz toda a diferença!

sofree In reply to wicked-moon [2006-05-19 11:39:20 +0000 UTC]

Sim, o objectivo era exactemente esse, que a única coisa focada na foto fosse o que se vê através da lente

haha ! nice love the style you used here.. the sepia seems to work very well with this.

The structure in the focus is also something that contemplates the picture and i think thats why the sepia style seems so great with it. Such a great idea this one, would be great to see more of things like this

Nice work and Cheers ..

Heheh, I'll keep an eye on my friends' glasses, maybe I'll find more nice perspectives on them
I'm really glad you liked this work, it's a concept that I had in my mind for a long time,
but this was the place where I really saw something great to put my focus on.

Thank you!
