single photos Father and son mountaineers

Tap is speaking in Louisville tonight. Wish I had gone to hear him. I'm an Everest fan: "Into Thin Air."

 

Daniel,

 

My very sincere compliments.

 

Take Care

This shot escapes the cliche, "isn't this a cool shot of some reflection." Its very effective, especially due to the weathered face and parched lips of the subject. Great composition. I always find it hard to make extreme close-up portraits look relaxed and natural. You have succeeded. The image tells a story and is wonderfully beautiful all the same.

 

Great shot.

Nice idea, perfect execution, lips add a lot and carry the picture beyond a 'nice idea'.

Fantastic. Would be nice in a set of two, this and another one with the father reflected in the son's sunglasses. Apart from the great colour and originality, I like the father/son theme. Nice to know some fathers and sons are so close they climb dizzy heights together. I like the mountains behind the son, and the parched lips - it conveys some context of the terrain.

Wonderful, it's all there including the mountains' reflection: the finishing touch to an interesting and great photo. Thanks.

Excellent!

Simply a great photo and a wonderful story!

Daniel's work continues to amaze me. I love that he includes technical information for amatuers like me

 

thx dan !

Perfect. The subleties in this picture keep getting me.

I really like shots like this one. You've done a great job with the reflection and the entire image. pair of 8s.

Nicely done, sharply rendered. I'd be curious to know if the image was captured more or less "as is" or if there was some desktop darkroom assistance.

No funky work, just Dodge and burn. I only wished I could'a got the backround a bit darker, tis a bit hot but that's the speed of the news bizz.

Congratulations on another excellent image. Wish I could come up with an original comment, but thanks for sharing.

Killer shot.

Daniel, excellent shot.

Outstanding.

Wicked!

If 10% of family photos were like this, museums would have permanent exhibits of them.

YOU'RE DAMN GOOD.

I love the composition and uniqueness in this photography, however in this case I believe Velvia effecrively murdered the skin-tones of the subject (was he really sun-burned?). This is a wonderful photograph but I think it would have benefited from using a different film. Off topic, I am a huge fan of your work, you have provided me with new inspiration.

 

Best wishes,

Inspirational. Love it.

Daniel, where or how did you hide the camera in the reflection, since it should be there. Or is it just off the reflected part at the left?

Great shot! Knowing they are father and son gives this photo an extra warm-fuzzy feeling.
