Brother In Arm

A dramatic lighting portrait of my 2 sons. Applied a split tone to

initial B&W image. Please view larger. Comments are welcome.

This photo speaks to the relationship between the children and the photographer. It is filled with trust, affection and joy. They come together with ease. This is an excellent photo - well composed and well lit. But it is so much more.

 

 

Ade: Beautiful portrait!

Ian: I appreciate your comments and rating. No doubt, photographing children is a joy, but photographing one's own children is a blessing. Thanks again.

 

Andrew: Thanks for your comments and rating.

 

Best Regards,

Ian's words are so much more eloquent than what I could hope to offer...so, I'll just say..."what Ian said!". This is a wonderful photograph on so many levels. And...by the way, your children are gorgeous!

Ditto to the above comments....how I wish I had been interested in photography when my children were young! They will cherish your pictures when they get older. I hope you'll frame them at home!

AMAZING WORK

High quality portrait, Ade. The expressions, light, tones and DOF are great. Excellent photograph! Regards!

Excellent, truly excellent. Two handsome young men too. I love the treatment

Dear Ade:

 

This is a perfect composition. What I love the most is the superb blend of curiosity and innocence in both these kids!

For some reason, I thought I had commented on this one, but regretfully I didn't. What a great photo, Ade. The connection these little guys share is remarkable. I love their expressions, each a little different in personality, but my eye keeps going to that arm wrapped protectedly around his brother's shoulder. It reminds me of my daughter wrapping her arms around my son and proclaiming "MY brother." "You are mine" is such a wonderful statement of deep connection.

Excellent portrait with really good toning technique! Very good details Ade.BTW,why not try a square crop?

Wow...priceless, uplifting and instantly rewarding! Awesome exposure and tones.

Ade, this is what I call a "stop and stare" photo. All kinds of thoughts come flooding into my head when I look at this and it reminds me how lucky I am to have a beautiful, loving family of my own. Your love for these two boys is coming right back at you. A perfect case of the photograph revealing the photographer. Blessings, my friend..........

I'm grateful for all your wonderful comments. Thank you so much.

 

Best & warmest regards,
