waiting...  patiently...  sort of... by northy

waiting... patiently... sort of...

so... yesterday i did a shot for the weekly theme, and @Cheesebiscuit pointed out that i had taken a picture of a "moment", but the theme is "momentS"...

and i thought, well, a shot is A moment... you can't take a shot of more than one moment... and then i thought, well, yes you can...

a major shout out to my boy who was so durned patient and accommodating...

four shots combined in PSE, converted to black and white in nik silver efex with some copper toner added...

and CRAP - there's some weird lighting bits that have snuck in from the layers... haven't the time to redo so 'twill have to do for now :(
I thik it's a great image.

Good for him! Much easier to have someone to model than to do it yourself! There is not even a twinkle on his face!
June 19th, 2013  
What a good sport!! Great job!

He must love his Mom very much and have a great deal of patience. Maybe he is in training to be a professional model. Well, I can see you have started a portfolio for him. Great composition, I can see by your editing you have a great deal of patience as well. He must get it from you. FAV

Eek! Don't blame me!

Looks mighty fine to me (I really can't see any weird lighting going on!!) Poor boy looks desperate xx
June 19th, 2013  
What a great sport your son is! Love all the different POV's and the B&W. I must say, its a nice looking wood floor too and it adds interest.
June 20th, 2013  
@northy - uhm...oh, yeah. i didn't even think about that. i thought more about seeing your shots in their brochures, in their ads, in the news releases, etc. etc. there's lots of possibilities! :-)
June 20th, 2013  
Hehe, love it. Not sure I could lay on the floor on my tummy and still hold my bladder but well done to him, lol. Fantastic.
June 20th, 2013  
Such a willing subject! Excellent result!
June 20th, 2013  
I love the way this tells a story.
June 20th, 2013  
OK so I think moments meant the collective individual moments of all the entries? But then since you came up with a great shot it doesn't matter! Love all the different moods conveyed.
June 20th, 2013  
I need to do one of these someday
June 21st, 2013

@neatz Anita... I at work and can't explain properly right now... But search 365 for the sandbox multiplicity tutorial which should help... If you can't find the tutorial, go back to my project in jan of this year... I may have put the link to the tutorial in one of my multiplicity shots
