The teacher of chemistry

Wonderful portrait, Pierre! I like this open face, look and moment. Probably you are talking with him. Magnificent capture. Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

I'm always talking to my models, preparing them for the shot, Tatiana! Thank you very much for your nice comment! PDE

Pierre, what I take away from this photograph, aside from its technical excellence, is that this person no doubt is successful in teaching chemistry. Yet, his face also displays his wisdom (and this is not because of his white whiskers and hair, as well as his somewhat furrowed brow). I get an emotional connection with this image, which I realize is totally subjective. Perhaps because, earlier in my life, I had a brief opportunity to teach as well. - - My best always, michael

Thank you for your thorough, as usual exploration of my colleague's portrait, Michael! PDE

Love it, especially since I am a chemist!

Thank you, Andrew! I thought you were a professional photographer! Cheers to that! PDE
