Pixel Darkroom Photography

On camera 580 bounced. Shot manual with 50mm lens and tweaked in Lr.

I can’t explain this photograph. I just asked her to look at me. I guess that by now, posing takes a new meaning and we become more and more comfortable in front of the lens. I only took a couple of shots and after doing some hard post-production on one of them I decided to go with this one lightly “touched”. Here’s Day 242. Where we are in the project, I don’t know. I sort of dropped posting links on Facebook and Twitter. I’m kinda tired of shooting something every day. Thanks for looking. Sorry for the RSS images missing. I actually never got the images to work with Buzz anyway and I don’t know how to make it work on RSS like this. I’ve had images being downloaded from my site and picked them up in different places so I decided to switch from Flickr to Photoshelter. We’ll see how this works.

You may think this is another posed portrait of my son where we were looking for a deep look, dramatic lighting and a great expression. I was actually playing with getting a dramatic lighting but had a different image in mind while he was just finishing his chocolate chip cookies and milk. I snapped a few frames and he got bored. This is just as he was getting bored and you don’t want to see the other ones. I then gave up as I didn’t want to upset him too much, yet again, and focused on something else. You might have ended up with something totally different tonight but when I uploaded the images, I found this, I loved it and here it goes. My son getting bored because of the somewhat repetitive task that Daddy has been doing for 108 Days, now.
