Father

This is from a nude series I did of this man, his wife, and their

infant son. I welcome your comments.

Very touching photograph. I love how baby butts look just like old man butts. :-)

Duane, I assume this is a scan of a print. I imagine this would be a difficult print to create. The tones you've achieved are enviable.

Not that it's relevant, but I do wonder how the man is positioned...on a stool that we can't see, perhaps?

Regards,

Robert

Beautifully done,great moment and you have captured it perfect.My critique is for the position not the tech merits.I would like to see his other arm wrap around the child.His left arm in particulair.I just think a arm over that area and a hand on the shoulder would make a better composition myself.

Your lighting is superb as well as your exposure...Im envious.

Wonderful, intimate portrait. Great.

Well, you've managed to melt my heart. A big, strong, pair of masculine arms enveloping a tiny, fraile human being is simply one of the most beautiful sights to me. I can't imagine how difficult it might be to light and expose the man's darker skin, but you've done a remarkable job of it.
