Flag on the play. After 50+ years of candid and formal portraits, a portrait does not require the subject to be making eye contact with the photographer. Why do you think this is staged? Why do you think this piece does not truly record the essence of the subject? Get a book, visit a gallery. There is no reason why this cannot be described as a portrait.

Eye contact...
Busch Pressman Tri-x 400 4x5 (handheld).
Any comments appreciated. And of course these are "staged", hired models and controlled setting. There are few circumstances where candid nudes are appropriate.
Comments welcomed. 8x10 Ambrotype. 420mmf4.5 Acomar.

Nice pic. I like the atmosphere. It reminds me the nude pictures from the 20īs of last century.
I agree...excellent!
