Guardian Camera Club: richbunce on portraiture preserving anonymity
Boy:The viewpoint along with the subject's movement, hair colour and striped top create a bright and lively image even with very little context. This high key treatment makes a nice change from the usually dark and serious tone of alot of anonymous portraiture we'd usePhotograph: Rich Bunce/flickrAbstract people:A rather extreme way of showing anonymity, although the colours are greatPhotograph: Rich Bunce/flickrSouth Bank path, London: The outline of the subject's clothes and the moody light creates a nostalgic feeling but this isn't really portraiture, more like street photographyPhotograph: Rich Bunce/flickr
Couple by woods:Mmm interesting photograph but again, more like a paparazzi picture than portraiturePhotograph: Rich Bunce/flickrSilhouette:This photograph would have been improved by using a tighter crop therefore preserving the backlit water but making the figure more prominentPhotograph: Rich Bunce/flickr
