    three on the wall

    One I like, one I don't.
    Even in their raw, unedited state.
    But which one do you prefer, and why?

    Re: three on the wall

    I definitely prefer the 2nd one here. I think the middle guy looking in the same direction as everyone else makes it stronger.

    On my monitor both shots lack pure white areas. So in that end, i think u need to brighten up a bit.

    The first one is good because the car is in the middle of the two. hmm,maybe i have to rethink which one i like now. haha. sorry , I don't know i'm torn. The 2nd one has a car but it's hiding behind the guy on the left. i'd clone that out.

    ok, I change my mind, i definitely like the first one more now.

    First shot for me. I like the idea that the truck in the background is interesting enough to break the middle guy's concentration, and make him turn around to look.

    I like the first one. The truck is a nice element, and you caught it at the perfect moment. The middle guy looking away doesn't bother me, since he is obviously looking at the truck.

    First one gets my vote too!
    The guy looking away provides a subject, a dynamic.

    In the second one I keep wondering what they're looking at.
    Look through a glass eye.
    Give it a few tries.

    I like the overall shot of the first one with the truck and the middle guy looking at it but think you lost the detail in the blacks of their pants and shirts which is better in the second one, Jeff
