A bit of fun and a homage to Bob Carlos Clark's photograph. If its not deemed appropriate for the portraits page, please move. I was not sure where it should go.

Don't worry Marvin, these old toys have a soul of their own made of the souvenirs they gave to the children we still are somewhere deep inside.
A portrait isn't only about the person beeing photographed it also deals with the photographer and his feelings towards his subject,and the emotions it creates for the viewers.
This photo carries a lot from you and mooves me too, therefore , to me, this photo really IS a portrait ! And a nice one by the way !
This summer by the mediterranean seaside, I couldn't leave my Sinar F2 at home so I took it (her) with me and started to make some portraits in the street.

I really like this capture!
I bet you could sell it to a gift card company.
It's perfect for lots of captions!

Paul,
I'm enjoying these recent portraits you've posted. Straightforward, simple, direct. Thumbs up!
Jonathan
Yeah Paul! Great stuff lately, looks like you got things working well ~ Same for you Ben ;-p
Thanks guys. Wish it were easier, sometimes feels like pulling teeth. But when I get a good one, I'm happy. Suffering artist and all that.
I have been experimenting with a more formal portraiture style. I have only just started playing around with lighting a bit more. Shot on a Horseman LE with 210mm lens. Film was fujifilm Acros developed in Rodinal. Scanned via a epson V700.

That's good light dude. Good northern european art light. My only thought would be it would be nice to have a small (very small) amount of kicker behind her to separate her hair from the black background.
Not really a critique but I'll apologize anyway. Very nice.

You could bounce light with a piece of foamcore behind her to get that little bit of seperation and still only use one light. If you don't mind me saying, in addition, I think the shot might have been a tiny bit better if you had short lit her-i.e. put the light on the left side of her face so that the closer side is in shadow.
Still I like the light a lot. What was it? Softbox? It's nice and soft but not wishy washy.
Between shooting wet plates, I got the chance to sneak in a few Type 55 exposures...

Well done.
Very nice smile, Jiri. I´m glad to see you posting again.
Thanks guys...
Eduard, my LF camera has seen very little use the past year, but it has recently started to grow on me again...

A shot of my youngest son before he moved to Maryland. My scanner is down so I had to use the digital camera to photograph the carbon print. Seneca 8x10 Kodak 305 Portrait Lens @ F 6.3 ish, Blue x-ray film developed in Pyrocat HD. Carbon Transfer Contact print. Lit with a Fresnel.
