B&W A few from tonight

[minnnt]

Passed half an hour on or so earlier on with the 'young un'

All 3 with old manual lenses, fun and infuriating at the same time.

Very nice David, not keen on #3 don't really get other than maybe for an abused person or someone being interviewed that doesnt want to be identity reviled. Can imagine some female deep voice dubbed on it.

You are doing good with Manual lenses I love the Venus... so I get the frustration sometimes.

Brilliant.

Thanks mate.

 

[Livin The Dream]

First one is very nice David. I can't say I get the last one either?

 

[doublemint76]

Love these.... except the last but hey you gotta try these things.

The faded mono pp works really well and considering you were shooting manual you done exceptionally well, focus is spot on. I really like the negative space in the first and also the caption. I'm a sucker for fonts, i dont suppose you care to share the name?

Good work

I like them all, thanks for the share

Thanks Kris. The last is not what i was aiming for. I was looking to brush the light across her face but never managed it 100% how i wanted it, but i kinda liked it.

Indeed. Was just a trial.

The font is called 'Honey I Stole Your Jumper' I think i downloaded it from a font site. Thanks for the comments, appreciate it!

I think you're right, i thought it was different so went with it. Not what i was aiming for, but some of my best shots were not what i was aiming for/

Thanks again everyone, much appreciated!

Lovely images fella. I don't tend to look deeply into images they just either work or they don't (thats just me an amateur) These work for me the last one moody and very mysterious maybe a touch too much mysterious. Love the camera height on the 2nd. Not keen on the text in the first but I get your sentiments.

[Pookeyhead]

That last one is sinister.

 

[sunnyside_up]

I love these... except I'm sorry, I don't get the last one. Lily is so beautiful, don't hide her face
Nailed the focusing... i'm crap at manual focus.

 

[minnnt]

Lol, maybe I'm weird then.

Don't be so hard on yourself, you have a crap dslr from the dark ages.

Thanks btw.

 

[Tintin124]

Is the last one Lily thought it was the wife... maybe that highlights similarities of them both

 

[minnnt]

Yes, it's the offspring.

 

[Tintin124]

Yes, it's the offspring.

Now you need to do this shot with the wife...

 

[minnnt]

Got lots planned for when the new bambino arrives. Mighttry then.

Not long now!!! Looking forward to seeing all the baby shots! If you need to borrow a poser/beanbag, let me know!

 

[minnnt]

I may need to borrow a photographer too...

 

[jakeblu]

First two are excellent David love the smile in the second. Like every one else I'm struggling with the last one and as a previous poster said it's a bit sinister, which is ok in its own right but doesn't really fit here.

 

[Sir SR]

First two are of your usual standard.

The third one is interesting. It is definitely sinister. I'd love to see the same shot with a the face barely lit in addition to the set up you had.

[minnnt]

Thanks Steve. Maybe i will do a sinister set so it fits as part of that... Once i've looked up what it means.

Shaheed, crap then, yeah?

Good idea with the extra lighting, i like it. Maybe just to pick out a few edges or features. Will give it a go once my second flash arrives.

Thanks.

[minnnt]

Haha, far from it. I tend not to take myself too seriously.

 

[sunnyside_up]

I tend not to take myself too seriously.

How could you possibly? You're a ginger

 

[minnnt]

Ithink that's the root cause...
