About Bibo ?bless his heart- is just the sweetest most intelligent kid I?ve ever met!
Taken at the beach I had a brief photo section of both the mama and her baby
This is dedicated to you my friend!
Thank you for giving me the chance to be part of that awesome day! :)


Ok about the picture, he was a bit nervous at first but when I showed him the LCD and he saw himself on the camera he changed completely and the model in him emerged ;)

Dear Arwa, to me, there isn't even a single reason to keep it in colour!

your cropping on the b&w has improved the composition a lot.

keep it up :)

arwa abdullah   {K:34415} 6/13/2005
Thank you ned so much!!
im glad you liked the image its not so bad in color ;)
But your right it works well in B&W
Heres the colored original as you can see I cloned out the source of back light, it was a bit distracting :)

Ned Ali Ned Ali   {K:11928} 6/13/2005
i can't even imagine this shot in colour .. it's just great in b&w!

well done for the catchlights in his eyes.
i like the composition and the backlight very much.

splendid shot, Arwa.
keep it up.

great angle and strong impression. i like the light, the wall and red toning. kids are so clean and free... i think it is very important to remind us the part of our life beeing sometimes completely forgotten.

Hi Arwa,

very good portrait and perfect usage of the diagonal background. the textures and toning really shine here. perhaps a bit grainy in the face, but nonetheless a strong one. you should focus on street portraits!

best wishes,

Thilo

Hello Arwa, Here something is more than the expression of kid's eyes, it's "How dare you take my picture without my permission", hehe that expression is clear in his face. Good Job

Nicely composed shot Arwa, that high textured wall with the darkness towards the front transitioning to lightness behind this handsome young dude is very effective. Great tones.
(sorry for being slow on comments,it's been frustratingly slow,can't wait for site improvement)

Beautiful portrait, Arwa - the lighting is awesome! Very good composition, too, with the little boy leaning into the edge of the frame, which sort of emphasizes his shyness.

Carlos     {K:12969} 5/24/2005
and so Arwa, the crafty photographer, rearranges the immediate world in search of the perfect picture and completely manipulates the beautiful boy from a state of nervousness into one of absolute trust? ;-) and the result in a stunning composition with fine balance and technical detail. But it is the easy poise, intimacy, and yes the intelligence of which you speak and manage to capture so very well that make this a first rate portrait.
