Perhaps the greatest photographic appeal is to be found in the human face—the right face at the right time. This study of a boxing judge was taken from the other side of the ring during a major professional bout: Leica Ml with f4 200mm Telyt lens, probably set at f5.6 and shot at l/30sec with the camera well braced, taken by the writer. A point to note in passing is that all right-handed people look first at the bottom left corner of any photograph, painting or drawing, and their eyes then travel round in a clockwise direction. Where possible, this should be borne in mind when composing a photograph.
