Well... not mine, but a gorilla's...
let me know what you think!

Haha, very nice catch.

shorty6049 · Jan 26, 2008

do you think this would look better in black and white? I tried it out be it started to feel a bit boring or something...

Trenton Romulox · Jan 26, 2008

Nah man, I think this shot works well in color. That's some nice bokeh, what were you using for a lens? Good capture.

shorty6049 · Jan 26, 2008

that was with my 50mm probably at around f/2.8 or so . thanks for the comments!

Now that's a poker face...I like in colour as well

Wow.. talk about sharp! I love it in colour. S/he looks so thoughtful.

Does this happen to be a crop? If so if you could include a bit more of the chin that might be night

ETA: Nice... as opposed to night.

sorry, not cropped. thats all there is but thanks!

Assuming he had a living room and a bit of money to spare ... he might happily buy this one from you to put it onto his wall! It is a very good portrait! (Agreed on the chin).

Sorry to say but remember this one thing, dont to shoot through glass! It ruins pictures. Someone had to say it.

shorty6049 · Jan 27, 2008

haha, thanks LaFoto! i'll have to look through my shots to see if i might have gotten more of the chin in any of them, but i think there wasnt a lot left to his/her face below where the shot stops because of the way it was sitting (sort of hunched) but i'll check
