Re: Dan
This looks great - I love the B&W treatment and the contrast. Looks like you shot it through a red filter to get the bright skin tones (as far as I understand filters with B&W
 ) Top stuff.Regards, Patrick
Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935. Our mug is smug
Re: Dan
I agree with Patrick, but....
how much PP sharpening have u done to his eyes? I think the eye contact is great but it seems to me that it's somehow too sharp... Geoff

Re: Dan
thanks Patrick & Geoff
No filter - was just lucky to have him standing in full sun in the backyard The background has been given a midtone burn to increase the contrast, and the bw conversion was done via the channel mixer.Geoff - the eyes weren't selectively sharpened, but I did dodge the highlights  Too much ??  Thanks again - I'll still stick to bugs and snails LOLDodging and burning are steps to take care of mistakes God made in establishing tonal relationships! -Ansel Adams
