Bro Kes-
Your printing is excellent. Did you burn the bottom two corners? I might have used a lighter touch there, But it's all a matter of the effect you want. It is beautiful the way it is.
I'll keep an eye out for e-mail. I have an aggressive spam filter. Try to send something from your old addy if possible, give me your new addy so I can put it on "allow" list.
Strong winds caused power lines to short and start little fires, but we were never in any danger of getting singed by the big fires. It was, however, very dark, smoky, ashy, gritty here for days.

Roby-
You placed the attention-getting visual element nearly, but not quite, dead center in the composition, ... artistic genius.
Awesome image!

My my, so very elegant are your portraits!
You may be an amateur, but you have the control over the medium, and the eye for graphics of the best professionals.

Hi Roby-
Masterfully arranged tones, textures, and lines, each element interacting with the others, in a sublimely complex composition.
Beautiful!

Bro Kes-
Here's what I would try as an experiment:
Make BW print of your daughter, frame it, maybe with a white mat, in wood. Make a color print of your son, frame it, matless, in aluminum.
Hang 'em next to each other on the wall. See what happens.
I just spent a day with my sister, at my parents home. We are so very different, yet, in ways the same.

Love it Kes!
If it were me, I would have cropped it closer on the top and left. But your version gives it that in-ANOTHER-space feel.
BTW You have e-mail

Claude-
FABULOUS
You nailed the contrast. Beautiful detail/form in the highlights and shadows.
At first the hat being connected to the chair leg bothered me a bit, but now I like it that way.

Salut Claude-
Your recent portraits are sizzling hot! Although I haven't perused the female nude section in a long time, I doubt that there is anything sexier over there.
Don't bother to look at my portfolio, there is nothing new there. I have been overwhelmed with business matters.

Gorgeous little girl. Great capture. Beautifully presented.
Everything works to capture and keep a viewer's attention.
Lovely subtle tonal gradation.
Symmetrical but dynamic, compostion with swirling lines that keep sweeping my eye back to the deep gaze of her almond eyes.
My only suggestion is to keep a wary eye out for dry lips. On a model this young, just use tiny bit of lip gloss, or have her lick her lips.
