    Off The Wall

    And on the printed page. Here are 280 tear-sheets of my large format photographs used in magazine illustration.
    They somehow look a lot better dressed up with headlines and body-copy that do the naked images I put in my portfolio hoping that someone will hang one on the wall.
    I'm posting the link to show off of course, but also to remind myself and my friends just what a simple, practical tool LF is for selling ideas and getting things done.
    My real portfolio is now at www.christopherbroadbent.pro

    To use the word impressive would be quite an understatement.
    There's so much work here to be admired and for the food still life perhaps even to be dribled on.
    Thanks for your contribution to this Forum Chris.

    Lovely work! I'm not much of a studio photographer myself, but still I appreciate this
    level of professionalism.

    Your work is inspirational, I especially love your slightly wide angle portraits and the way you make your backgrounds specific to your lighting.

    It's all very classical and elegant but never out-of-date or stale. Congrats on achieving that.

    The simple approach to your website is refreshing as well. I think you should add a few links so people could find your tearsheets and, most importantly, contact you.

    So... that's a lot of good pictures. How many thousands of bad pictures have you taken? ;-)

    Wow! I'm disappointed... I only said "Wow" 279 times. Oh yea, I gotta count that first one here, too. So, yeah, that's a 280 Wow count.

    It's really nice seeing the images in context. You are a master at what you do and you can show off here any time you'd like.

    I especially want to thank you for all the personal help I received from you in the still-life threads and all the following help for other folks here.

    Bravo!
