Group Portrait Results


 
 
Would anyone be kind enough to offer constructive criticism on a group photo that I took? This is the first large group photo I've taken. This was a family reunion of a friend. Fuji NPS160 film. Mamiya 645 1000s. F-11 @ 1/30 sec. 50mm lens. Sunlight at approx. 45 degree angle to group front. Also, this was taken on a tiny piece of property. This was the best background.

I had the negative scanned to digital file and burned out the yellow parking lot lines (not very observant of me---though I noticed the lines, I chose not to move the group forward because of the elderly folk in the group.) Also, a building was 4 feet behind camera position.

All criticism, suggestions, observations are welcom. But don't be too hard on me because I'm punishing myself already for too much asphalt.

Thanks in advance for your help!!!!
