 I just wanted to test out some bristol board (the background) and foamboard (reflector) that I bought. Total price, $2.50.

This is my brother Peter, he had just sneezed and this is his head on the way back up. Turned out cool I thought. Although I was aiming to catch that sneeze lol

Ahhh looks like people recognize him, he will be forever banned from having his face appear in pictures. Maybe.

Hi from Critique Club.

Here are my comments about Fleeting Youth:

1 - Little contrast. More will help the image.

2 - Focus only in the face region. I believe that the focus in the body could transform this in a more didatic photo.

Hope you like the ideas.

Oscar

Ha! Nah, don't ban the guy - he makes a good model! Just disguise him... :-)

Spot on portrait. Good detail, natural color, no crazy "smoothing" or oversharpening. Nice!

Fleeting indeed. Like the idea. The guy does look oblivious of this and fits the title. Most youths live for the moment.

really like how you have got the eyes looking. The direction he is looking though does not quite mesh very well with the rest of the shot for me.

I'm guessing this is Senay, as I recognise the model. This is a really nice candid with great DOF and perfect focus. Everything seems really natural, from his expression to the lighting to the skin tones.
