The question I refuse to answer is: which one is the best portrait of that young man? The value or your black and white lies elsewhere. It lies in pure, raw emotions, and has little to do with the young man himself.<br /><br />The black and white is much more powerful.<br /><br />Now technically, and this is one of the few rules that I SOMETIMES respect (ha ha), as far as the eyes are concerned, you did an A+ job in the black and white, but an ordinary one in the colour portrait. And this is in fact why the black and white carries so much power. The eye!<br /><br />So I maintain, as a portrait independent of the person, you did a first class job in the black and white, but not in the colour version.<br /><br />What do you say, now that I bring such praise to the black and white, my friend? :-)))<br /><br />RogerRoger Gauthierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690736289188945063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7958871883833531853.post-44876419758612233422010-11-23T22:15:05.123+01:002010-11-23T22:15:05.123+01:00Last one was overcontrasted kid.
