Intent

Another attempt at meeting my get pushed challenge from @3dogs4kids to do portraits in black and white. This is my dear husband, Jim, intent on expressing the subtleties of a thought he is having. I think the thing that first bonded us in 1961 was our delight in pondering and talking about everything under the sun

He does seem to be lost in thought... like the double shadow on the wall behind his head.

What a wonderful thing to have such a great partner to ponder lifes mysteries.. :-) nice shot. looks good in B & W

[Kerri]

Great portrait

[Alison Tomlin]

I like the thoughful expression. I might have gone for a little more contrast.

[Pat Knowles]

He is pondering well Jane & I like a good ponderer. Harry is not a ponderer, it's either black or white!!! Great portrait!

[Vic]

Very Nice Jane, I like the effect the border has. I think it helps to add a little more contrast.

[Judith Greenwood]

Pensive - I think it has a retro feel - reminds me of some sixties photos - obviously he should be surrounded by wreaths of smoke for that era.

[Carren]

I love the look you caught and the shadow too! Very nice comments too! Cheers for great hubbys and pictures!

@judithg We never got into the 60s drug thing but he did have a big huge dark beard!

[Ellen Young]

I like the B& W brings you back to the 60's ! He looks definitly in deep thought...congrats on many years together..communication is one of the keys to a successful relationship!! :)

[Pam Hawkes]

Good capture of his expression Nice framing too.

[Dawn Irwin]

I love it in b&w!

[Ross Walker]

I like the somewhat unruly hair and his attention away from the camera. It all comes together as an informal, candid portrait. Good choice for B&W.

[Helen]

So deep in though! A great photo - it works well in b&w.

[Shirley Banford]

Excellent portrait.

[Jen Hudson]

You certainly have captured his essence here. Great to be on the same wavelength and converse.

[Pam]

Great B&W portrait. It is so great to have a partner you talk about everything with:)

[Ann Jones]

Great portrait here!
