February 2011 Portraits

Thanks all. I appreciate encouragement. There were six in the series for Kiton. I have scans of these two.
Back to earth. Giovanni bellini was using this isolation technique in 1500 AD. Andrea Solari at about the same time did Christ on a background tied to the door jamb with string and tennis balls (yes we had tennis in 1500).
I had another go at it with some factory workers (not LF) for Artemide, using a smaller background for more factory. My clients need to show that they actually make the stuff in Italy.

I'll jump on the bandwagon too. Really well done Christopher!!

Wow! Amazing images Christopher, thanks for sharing.

Any room left on that bandwagon?

Great portrait of a beautiful young lady!

I spent maybe 15 minutes in Photoshop.

Houston has nice girls, so they can not only speak to the astronauts at the fly to the moon they can also speak to pretty woman;--)))
I have also more and more stale dated color film and will also use it for portaits, seems to work very well!

Cheers Armin
