Hi, Bev! I hope everything is fine with you and yours.
This is really a great portrait! Great pose and great lighting! I like the vintage look it gets from the sepia color.
I can see why this is your all time favorite! #589724

The brilliant lighting on your subject is totally awesome, Beverly!!
His pose is simply terrific and well placed in the picture plane.
This is very well presented in sepia.
That's the technical stuff...I just love the mood here..it is so upbeat!! He really exudes joy and fun in the moment!!! #3834533

Hi Raymond! All is well here, I hope all
is well with you and yours also. Thank you so much for your much appreciated kind comments. This was so easy to shoot
and I did 3 rolls of him that day in my
film camera. Thank you again!! #3834974

Thank you so very much Cassie for your
much appreciated comments. I am not as
good as you in the studio, so I stick
mostly to natural light, and do my best!
Thanks again Cassie! #3834988

Why thank you so much Melissa for your
great comments. It was just good old
dim sunlight. I really love this pose also. He must have really been in a good mood that day, I took 3 rolls
altogether in about 20 minutes. That's
how I shoot people when they are there
with me mentally. I lose all track of time so I only allow myself so much
film to take along. Thanks again so much
for all of your kind words of encouragement. It was a fun day! #3835020

Thank you for the compliment Beverly it really was sweet and means alot to me =o) But I still have sooo much more to learn about studio lighting. Again I really think your use of natural lighting on this one and your others are fantastic!! #3835750

Great shot Bev! You must be persuasive to get him to pose. My husband won't! Love the light, the angle, the contrast! Sepia tone was perfect for this shot. #3852572

had more time, and never dreamed I'd

Thank you for all the nice comments on this! #3853973
