Fast food

A happy accident - this was a series of grab shots waiting for our meals in a high quality pub restaurant.

 

Then there was the PP : this is actually a combination of the best 'motion blur' shot, with the sharpest foreground (very slow shutter speeds due to low light). Hope you think it was worth it!

Definitely worth it.

The motion blur is great and the natural framing works well but is sadly lacking from the right. Possibly lose the post from the left and about half the black area from the bottom?

Yeah, sadly the view on the right wasn't in keeping with the rest of the composition.   I wanted to convey how these guys - though on full view - were kind of 'trapped' inside their kitchen space, so the dark framing is intentional. Should I 'cheat' and clone from the left onto the right hand side to complete that impression?

I won't tell if you don't.

Liking this Chris.  I think the conversion works well to.

Thanks! What did you mean by 'conversion'?

[Creativesnaps]

Sorry B&W

[ChrisLumix]

Oh right - it wasn't. I have one of the 'Custom' settings on the Lumix set up for B&W shooting, so there never was a colour version of this.

Thats even better then
