Your comments are welcome.

did your technique ever make it to press? I remember you saying it did - where can I find the directions?

Yeah, Howard. Would love to know more about your technique...if you've already told us, could you provide the link? Thanks!

 

It is very effective, and I'd love to try it myself....

Excellent capture of the joys of motherhood and wonders of a child,Howard. I like this image very much for its simplicity and eternal theme.

Howard Wonderful bond of mother and child,How you show the clear open expressions,pressed together.I like how the faces line up .outstanding.

Thanks Wilson, I beleive I fixed the problem near the hair. Good suggestion about the negative space.

He he ... gorgeous !

Beautifully strong face full of pride and confidence. Holding close the little space cowboy gazing off into the cosmos. Oh, for that age of innocence again. This looks so natural and yet so present, very non-contrived. Hope these are getting closer to print publication? I for one, would like to own an entire book of your portrait and candid images just like this.

I love her dark eyebrows with the fair hair! The placement in the frame is nice, Howard. They make a beautiful pair!

I like it dear Howard :) love the look and smile of the Mother and the sense of non-interest of the little baby :)

Great B&W dear Friend :)

 

Thank you :):):)

It would be wonderful if you placed a small original of the image so we could see how you started out. You need to start working in the studio :) However, you might not capture the same wonderful expressions that you do out in the field. But I think it would surely be a lot less PS work.

 

The baby reminds me of an antique baby expression. Really sweet, Mom looks very proud, I like that :)

Here is the original before I did the HKWO work.

Thinking to oneself, hmmmm.... if Jayme asks for the original image, will we see a Jayme version soon? Can't wait! :-D
