I'm not a portrait photographer myself so maybe my opinion isn't worth much but I think this is just fine and dandy.

I love the hazy glow. Very atmospheric.

Hi Chris

I'm always a sucker for a train snap and I like the angle you've chosen. For such an experienced photographer, why so few images in your portfolio?

Regards Bill

I take it that this was taken outside under available light. It just shows you don't need a studio to create wonderful portraits.

A difficult shot, well executed.

Nice concept, well executed but a bit confused about the hands.

It looks as if you had to struggle against rather dull light. The result however is pretty good. I admire the clarity.

Another skillful image. In passing could I say how much I like your digital art folio. Best Wishes

Thanks Jim

Wonderfully atmospheric.

A beautiful capture on a late afternoon in winter. Very atmospheric.

Beautifully captured and expertly exposed. Congratulations.

Splendid capture of a moment.

I love the effect you've created. It's what I attempt but never quite manage. Well done.

Very creative and really well composed shot.

I think one of the appeals of this portrait is the sense coming across that this is a really nice man. There is humour in the eyes and a smile on the mouth. Technically it is also superb. Congratulations.

Great perspective.

Great shot. Do I detect the very subtle use of the Orton Effect or do you have your own magic recipe?

Hi Michael

Yes I recognise that problem. I have over 150 boxes of slides from way back. Time has caused some alteration in colour balance on many of them. Slides will only last so long and digitising them was my way of preserving them. You may be right but I doubt that the purple glow was present originally. Good luck

Bill

Very nice image, beautifully constructed. You might like to consider a new wider lens to save you some of the hassle of stitching.

If you know Chester you'll know about The Rows, a second row of shops

above those at street level.

Nice calm image but I'm not sure the purple cast actually helps in this case.

As a first attempt its very good. I wish I could master HDR as well. Welcome to Photo.net. I would risk putting this in for a rating just don't take the result too seriously. I look forward to your future contributions.

I really like this simple image. The eye is drawn very strongly to the figure on the path. Can we have a colour version to see the plane trees in their full glory.
