The kind of interaction to avoid (although this was, thankfully, just a re-enactment). (5 years and 421 days ago)
We get it....a battle and death. Oh those naughty Vikings not only did they rape and pillage Britain they did the same to Canada and the Ukraine where many a blond Ukrainian lives to this day. Good one.
thanks still,rape and pillage sounds like a double act
Is the man on the ground supposed to be playing dead?
If we could give the actors some tips for improvement, I would suggest that he didn't hold his gun in the air while pretending to be dead.
Nice fire shot from the end of that rifle.
Yes not the best acting in the world,lol think it would have been better without the guy on the right as well
The guy on the right is part of the Union forces being fired at (by the Confederates). He (and his side) is much closer to the camera than the squad further away.
Fair enough still think it would be better without him,although if he was in focus,then the interaction would have been better and given this a better effect.
The DOF implies the distance. It would be more confusing if he were in the same focus as the guys firing further away.
I like everything about this staged photograph. The man in softness on the right gives us the feeling of them against us. It is a good thing you did not crop him out and the dead guy is fine with gun in hand , that is after all, how he fell!
Howdie stranger!
