Some of you that know me, have seeing a couple of these pictures before.
I tend to incorporate the landscape in my portraits, to me it's only natural to tell a bit of this persons story with what surrounds them.

Portraits
This whole universe of photography is so new to me, I'm not a professional photographer at all. I like to think that I am at heart though.

What would anyone be without their surrounding?

Nice work, Raquele. Each of these is composed so nicely, but the thing that I most respond to is the natural quality of each.
ReplyDeleteThe way you've captured the top two, they seem like hard working sunburnt fishermen, the types of guys who can lift 100 lbs, but you wouldn't know it just by looking at them. Really powerful stuff.
This is one new years resolution worth keeping!

Thank you Kyle
ReplyDeleteLovely portraits that capture both the individual and their environment. Good composition but the thing that makes these for me is your choice of viewpoint and the way you use the light to create form in the features of your subjects.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mick, the one thing that bothers me in these photos, is the horizon line behind the subject.
ReplyDeleteDo you find it distracting?
The fact that horizon lines are out of focus means that they aren't a distraction. The slanted one in the third one is a little bit disconcerting.
