Description ... just thought I might throw a bit of street photography into the mix.

I got careless here... and shot at f/2.8. I had the 24-70mm on and saw this shot and whipped out the 135mm, but forgot to change the aperture @_@

Cropped to accomodate rotation.

Penang, Malaysia.

I really like it and think the focus is great. My only problem is the composition, it seems to be off the horizon line. I love the concept and shot, but it just feels like it was taken on a slope due to the lines and person. My two cents...

thanks for your honesty! it's very interesting you mention that.

The original image was actually level, but I rotated it and cropped it hoping to create more tension. I shot it with the side of the circular portholes that the person was looking at tighter. I was hoping to add more 'gravity' to the shot in doing so. hmm... perhaps the focus is a little too centred? and therefore loses that tension?

really appreciate your feedback!

More than welcome.
I see what you are saying now by wanting to add gravity to the shot. It helps give you the idea that you are being drawn/ sucked into the wormhole. The focus is fine how it is, it would have been a wee bit better a step up, but that is then and this is now.
No problem, just trying to help out

aperture's perfect - really draws you into the figure at the end.
