Brian & Jay by jack4john

Brian & Jay

Brian Bourke & Jay Murphy are both artists , living and working in the West of Ireland . I was asked to take some pictures at the opening of an exhibition of work by a group of artists , Jay was one of them, they agreed to let me take their picture. Brian's brother Fergus was a famous photographer who took one of my favourite pictures . alas he is no longer with us but his art lives on. http://www.sofinearteditions.com/work/early-morning-the-gasworks/
A wonderful portrait shot and information.

When I first saw this I thought that they were musicians but perhaps all creative people give off a similar aura.

Interestingly I note that you have been using a greenish tone lately, something I have been trying too: I love it in your images, hate it in mine... go figure!

@vignouse I use Befunkey a bit like Picmonkey, they have a filter called tin type which may account for the greenish hue , or maybe it's the irishness breaking out.
