How about a New Portrait thread?

Daniel Buck: Your self portrait is great, but it also seemed vaguely familiar. Then, LOL, I realized that (based upon the portrait) you bear a resemblence to pictures of Ansel Adams dating to the 1930's or so. If you have any inclination toward acting (and have the right hairline), you probably could devise a stand-up act as an AA impersonator. That might be fun to watch--and I might learn something too.

I'm new to posting, it's intimidating to post, but here goes.

Seven-year-old daughter of friends last weekend, in her pink and purple shag sweater and an old iron chair, through a 300mm f/5.8 Imagon, wide open on the 8x10 2D. No, that's not a black eye; she'd put on her own make-up, (as only a seven-year-old can!) and wanted her picture taken...

Mark, I absolutely love this portrait.
Everything comes together.
I can't take my eye off it.

I'm new to making portraits.
Working with collodion it's seems natural to give it a shot!
It's been great to check out some of the great portraits in this thread.

Great work everybody!

I have not been on this great site in ages...

Thought I would post this shot taken with a 4x5 Sinar a few years back: Washington Native American with really old family corn stones from his tribe...

Truly breathtaking, I could look at this for hours.
