I'm just a young Country lad

My oldest son, partial high key which I'm experimenting with, but with a darker background for this one. I was pretty happy with the results as they depict all the best bits I love most about him.
A fabulous portrait and so great in monochrome.

@dibzgreasley @amyamoeba Thank you, I am pleased with the result, and so is he, which is always a bonus! I love it when my kids ask me to put a photo I've taken out on the net as it really makes me feel like it's a good photo if they approve (my boys definitely believe in honest feedback on mum's photos).

Beautifully done!

lovely portrait the b&w works - it's that very black and white processing that some b&w goes for

Beautiful portrait. Excellent in b&w

@flyrobin I agree. I have a 14 year old son and he won't let me post anything he doesn't like!

@macromover Thank you Jan. I was pleased with how it came out, especially as I was trying to overexpose bits of him for high key

What a great shot of your son Robyn. Your efforts with high key are most impressive. Anything I've tried so far has been awful.

@peter_1966 @tuya @srijit @mamadrum @debihas27 @yorkie @cooperperich @kwind @kiscsillag Thanks for the lovely comments on the shot and my handsome subject. I'll make sure to pass them on

@golftragic Thanks Marnie. I do like high key and have found it works best if I deliberately over expose the shot while taking it as well as messing with the processing. The boys prefer the darker background as they think a very light background is too angelic for them!

@flyrobin They'll get over it.
