Ryan+Picado+Portraits



The first image starting from the left has great craftsmanship.The lighting is available because it appears despite being focused solely on him he is outside because behind him it looks like there is a building. The photographer used great compositional technique like filling in the frame and being well focused depth of field and instead of taking a head view of the man the photographer decided to go with like a semi side look.Also pretty straight horizontal line. The photographer is a user from flickr named www.chezsam.net and rather it’s really a collection of photos instead of a single photo. The second image thats in the middle used artificial light because the photographer even said so and the man looks like he is in the middle of a wedding.Compositional techniques that are used is fill in the frame also could be framed cause the background is entirely black. The photographer was not really mentioned but what i like is that it kind of reminds me of Don Corleone from the Godfather and it seems really dark like the man has a dark history or past. The last image which you can’t really be able to seem to tell but we can safely assume artificial cause behind her is a wall, and her face is pretty lit up so a flash must have been used. A lot of compositional techniques are used the fingers and the harmonica can be thought as leading lines because they lead to the woman. Filling in the frame cause her hands and face cover the whole photo.Possibly even depth of field for her hands and the harmonica are more in depth then her face.also this picture had no photographer to it but really well done
