single light source used, my monitor. playing around with remote capture using my camera on a tripod. you can see an earlier photo in my eye. Titles from DBC, another one of my favorite bands
Nice. I think it says what it says very well. I like to consider the relationship between words (even just titles) and pictures ... how the photograph illuminates the photographer's thoughts. It seems that you do too.
The intensity of the stare is what grabs me - keep these up - I am really enjoying your work and how you are exploring lighting and how it interacts with your face.
Oh I like this one alot. Your focus is so crisp, yet seems soft at the same time. Great eye contact as well. The only thing I would suggest would be to burn the light part of your neck right above your title and maybe your right cheek a little.
Composition: Your placement in the frame is great!
Lighting/Exposure: I like the way the light falls off gradually in this one. Much less harsh and much more appealing low-key. Very nice sharpness and light in the eyes.
Pose: The hand on the chin is really good here. It lets me see that you are actually thinking about something and are not just a floating head :) I really like the tilt of the head too.
Suggestions for Improvements: Nada.
I prefer this type of processing. It looks much more natural and is much more appealing to my eye. Very nicely lit considering you only used a computer :)
