You made me blush Sury.

I don't think you should sell your gear:)) You take amazing photos.


By the way here is another quick photoshoot, done in 10 minutes, again during my lunch break.

Anne,
You are most welcome. I loved the last one most. I see it as someone lost in thought,
may be reminiscing a cherished moment, may be feeling forlorn due to missing a loved one or even
feeling ennui due to the present.

Hi Anne, : )

Welcome back with more nice portraits that are shot in the most minimal time niches. : ) I like how these short lived, hurried moments compell you to figure out lasting beauties.

I may be shifting out of balance with my next words, for including a great artist's name, Leonardo Da Vinci, as I feel and liken these shots to his Mona Lisa colour palette and emotion. : ) Everyone seeks the genious in his works....So I think that you are on the right track.

Second ones of each post are more to my personal liking.

Thanks for sharing,

Yildiz

Thank you very much Dr. Harout, Sury, Yildiz and Birma! You are always encouraging me. Sometimes I want to give up, and then I find strength to go on...

Doc, I really do not know what is PCA Is it good or bad to be a Portraitist of PCA?

Anne,
An excellent capture of gamut of emotions that child is going through, there is that disappointment, that frustration, that anger at
everyone because he was not told about the game, that sulking at his own to pay attention to events around him. Only a child can express
all those at once because of their innocence and that is what you captured. Another fine example from your talented hands. Please don't
tell me it was just a few minutes of work. It is going to kill me.

With best regards,
Sury

gio67,
Please accept my sincere apologies for the mistaken identity. My comments still hold though. Those were my thoughts when I saw the photo of
your grandson.

With best regards,

Et tu gio67? All kidding aside, I am simply amazed by the talent on the forum.
The eye for composition, the sense of timing, and the ability to visualize that image (may be sometimes)
is just awe inspiring. I am too self conscious to shoot people, er, let me rephrase that, to take photos of
people and hence my admiration for those who do. So much to learn....so few lenses.

Sury, I shot all these shots with Takumar 50mm f1.4 (manual focusing on my sony a55), so I can recommend you to have 50mm lens and shoot portraits.
