.

The black & white works nicely, JBTaylor. :)

The second may have benefitted from a little cropping to keep our focus in on the portrait. I feel that the left hand in the air clutching fabric is distracting away from the face and the reflections on the sun shades. Just my humble impression.

Thanks for sharing,

Yildiz

The father of the bride. My wife suggested that he was The Godfather. Maybe she was right but his gentle nature leads me to believe that it's just the lighting that makes it work.

Nice set of portraits JB. The B&W and the second child portrait are my favorites.

Cool shot. Looks like they're all good buddies. The pigeon sitting on his shoulder is great!
