My First Submission

[Riano]

Hey there ! this is a shot from a rather spontaneous photoshoot.. during my first experience at the studio in college.. (with lights and everything ).. i got my friend to put her son on a chair and took a few pics.. i think i like this one the best!

Feedback would be super.. even Crits

Well I think it's maybe in the wrong section...more than just a snapshot IMO.

very nice lighting Riano and the compsition is not bad. I think I would have liked to see his other hand in the shot and I'm kind of curious as to what all that gear is strapped to his body....looks like he jus dropped in from a bit of skydiving
Beautiful tone to the image and nice exposure.
Film or digital? I'm gonna guess digital or larger format film camera.

anyway..those are my thoughts.
Welcome to TPF.

 

[Riano]

wow! thanks for your comments it is digital

He had just come in with his mother and there was no time to waste, like a lion hunting its pray! lol

i have a question though.. what is IMO !? im not used to these shortened terms, i figured out TPF though

 

[JonK]

IMO = in my opinion. you'll get the hang of it

Handsom little boy she's got there. Lighting is nice.

I agree with JonK, that think he has on him makes him look like he just got done parachuting. Is that one of those 'child leashes'? I think the picture would have been better without the leash thing. Other than that, it looks great!

TOTALLY off the subject, but, are you famous Riano? You look like this guy I saw on HBO doing photography of nudes in all 50 states. (Assuming that your avatar is a picture of you).

Awesome, the tone and lighting on his face is sooooo soft! he sorta stands out of the background.
You definately gotta put it in the portrait or general section!
Oh, and welcome in here, nice to see you!
... and just one shortened word that's been puzzling me for a long time: DOF!!! then i figured out it was "depth of field". Hope that'll help you

 

[Riano]

AHH ! wow thank you all for your nice comments i appreciate it alot!
