The Sun and the Moon
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

I like the blur, but I would like to see a different pose.
Nice, I would just remove a bit more of the space above.
Does look nice. Love the red and greens, but too much head space.For portraits....get close! Nice job!
I can see that now, thanks for bringing it to my attention
The head is great and the rear shoulder is ok. The front shoulder is a problem - it looks much too big like she was curving it forwards instead of back. I'd crop.
ah now that you mentioned it, it totally bothers me! thank you.
If you're new to this, it's great that you tried a diagonal - you should. You did great with the light and the pose too. Perspective is something you have to learn to use for you and not against you if you're ambitious and don't take those godawful subject at centre of camera, body square, background blurred portraits that this place is full. Spend some time looking at the work of great photographers like, oh, Jane Bown, and absorb what you can.
Appreciate the feedback very much!
love the color but not the composition
What lens did you use here?
50mm
