| Eric from New York - June 21, 2011 | June 21, 2011 @ 12:01am | In part two of this week's two part Photo of the Week on the Daily Critique Craig looks at a powerful portrait and discusses the following:
- monochrome vs. color
- dimensional and dynamic qualities of light
- great use of depth of field
- rhythm for dynamic unity
- Metadata - Canon 5D, 70-200mm IS II @ 70mm, f/6.7, 1/250s, ISO 500

I must say, Craig, that I totally missed out on predicting what you were going to cover in this critique. I usually try to make up my own critique before I watch the video. Many of the areas of energy in the image I totally missed. Must be lack of experience on my part, but really interesting to see you point them out during the critique. Seems like my aging brain just can't hold onto all of the points you cover.

Craig, thank you for reviewing both the backstory and the image. A lot of what I have learned from you, your workshops, and this community came together in the shoot with Chris. Everything from what goes on behind the camera like getting to know your portrait subject, "clearing the deck", being present, following your intuition, and modulating the energy of the shoot to lighting to elements and principles of design all seemed to flow the afternoon of the portrait session. Thanks to Chris too. Beyond the images, I am grateful for our collaboration and the friendship that emerged. As Craig pointed out, the ripple effect from this type of work is amazing.
