Excellent lighting on the face Sara.
Sara Lamond replied

Thanks Andrew – lighting by mother nature – I just use what she gives me :)

I won’t give you photographic terminology as to why I like this image so much, rather I’ll give you personal opinion. The light on his face is sublime; the background colour works perfectly with the black and white theme of the central character. I like how there are aspects that stand out, his tie and suit and of face and his hat blends into the background…in the shadow. A superb pensive capture of Charlie Chaplin….
Sam Frysteen

Very cool pic.

Get the lights out again and make a “the Crow” now (not a demand of course – just the tones reminded me of Brandon Lee in the Crow)
Sara Lamond

Fabulous done, looks like a painting with marvellous colors and great lighting!
Jason Moses

Sara, I like it a lot, and I think I’d love it without colour. The grain suits it well and the “mother nature” lighting is perfect.

Nicely done Sara!!
Mark German

Nice mood in this one, Sara.
The background colour is great.
Sara Lamond

Thanks guys

@Jason – I did try this without the background color – lacked some “pop” – so decided to leave “Charlie” b&w as he would have been in his movies, but keep the color in the background .

Sara Lamond replied

Thanks! If you were in Australia I’d direct you to Brisbane to catch this street performer in person – he did an excellent job representing the little tramp :)

I’m always fascinated by street performers in general anyways because it is such a foreign concept to Canada … don’t really have those here. Buskers and street musicians a little but not these kinds of performers. I was in Madrid in August and saw one guy dressed as a tree and he was standing in a park … scared the crap out of me when he started moving but it was just the most elaborate costume.
