To me, my kids look like themselves, and not like mini versions of us... but it's funny how in a particular photo, you suddenly see it. Here, he has his dad's lips - what.
I must be mistaken in thinking I can stick to a theme for an entire month: I usually struggle with just a weekly theme! But I will try the whole month in black & white aside from the flash of red on the 14th. I'm not promising though. See, no tag. Very non-committal.
Really great portrait. Focus and DOF is perfect. I feel the same way about B&W (although I do love b&w normally), but I have a couple of albums going on.
@graemestevens thank you much :) @tracys thank you Tracy, I do love b&w so much too, but to commit to solely it for so long is a bit scary to me... not that it happens often but what if there is a sudden amazing colorful thing I must shoot? :) @aikiuser thank you Ms Jenn!
Superb portrait! Love the dof, and those gorgeous eyes. I think the same way you do! I rarely see myself in my kids but every now and then I do see my hubby.
@kategoring thank you Kate and oh gosh, I totally saw your eyes and perhaps nose in your son's beautiful portrait (Blue Eyes)! At least what I see from your profile pic :)
Beautiful shot Caroline, I never think I look like my mum or my sisters but then in some photos of them I could swear it's me. My mum at my age is spooky!
Those eyes! Yeah, it's been said before but I just had to comment on them too. Last year I played along with the splash of red, and it took quite a while before I could shoot in color again. As it is now, I shoot in monochrome, and when Lightroom imports the raw image, it brings in the color, and I must then edit it back into b&w.
@bill_fe that's super interesting actually Bill... I love to know the 'behind the scenes' in what others do. I bet you we all do things pretty differently from one another...
always so interesting to hear others struggling to shoot in black and white... and then i think - well, if i had to shoot colour for a month, i'd be in deep doodoo!
@northy ha but you excel at black & white... I love black & white so much, I think the struggle is more being confined, having limits. I don't like to think that there is something I can't do for a whole month :)
