August 2011 Portraits

[sanchi heuser]

Feeling like being on the side... Nothing to contribute with... And there are great portraits being produced!

I am now on a boat in the Faroes, leaving next Friday for NE Greenland for some geology work. I will portrait the crew (mostly Greenlandic), one by one. AT least that is the plan.

We will be in the middle of icebergs and dense sea ice. Going north 76 degrees, trying to push to 81N. Luckily we have a icebreaker for emergency...

It has nothing to do with portraits, but it is just that I am frustrated I will have nothing to show this month and maybe next...

Did I say Faroes women are beautiful?

Hi Stephane,

WOW, such an amazing cool trip!
I'm very curious to see your next pictures.
Keep on trucking.

Cheers
Andi

That looks great. Pinpoint focus.

Another great photo, Scott; where do you find these beautifully sharp lenses?
He looks a little different now with his nose out of focus.

Scott -- Winner!

Thanks, everyone! I'm loving this Darlot!

I've been looking at the portrait threads weekly, but haven't been posting for a while,
finally had the time to take the agfa ansco 8*10 with a schneider isconar (crazy little cheap lens for the output it gives) out in the field. Foma 100

Portraits have always felt like something beyond me - way beyond what I was able to capture, what I was able to communicate… Only very slowly, hesitantly, humbly, I have started trying portraits. Friends at first.

Renedage, good work.

My first self portrait with an tilted toyo 4x5 and open aperture. It's hard.

Nice. That's a curious circular reflection in your pupil. Did you use a ring light? Did you plan for that reflection to echo your nose ring?
