The simple life
by ggsupersport
This was not a clear shot...hoping adding an artistic photoshop filter makes it acceptable. Could use input.

The circumstances didn't allow....I had a 500mm lens, shooting from a distance through the windshield of the vehicle. And the Amish are not for having their photo taken. A few don't seem to mind, but others will hide their face in view of a camera. I have read that their thought on this is that to "pose" for a photo is a sin of pride....

Hi Georgia, unfortunately I don't think you can resurrect this one. It's also rather tilted to the right and needs a straighten, but probably best to put it down to experience and move onto the next one.

This has a strange painterly effect which I rather like. Compelling subject but not, as you suspect, a great photograph.
Best wishes,
Andrew
