Portrait #11—The Pilgrim
An elderly man I met in a local park. Kurdistan, Iraq
###
A year of 50 posed portraits with only one light; a project designed to improve my camera work while blessing the people I encounter. You can see older portraits here, read the rules of the project here, or leave a comment below with your feedback.
Love this one. He has a great face, there is plenty of great texture, and you’ve made beautiful light.
Thanks, Erin. All I see is stuff I’d like to improve, so your encouragement is definitely uplifting!
Matt – I don’t comment often, but you got some seriously good work in this blog,.. great portraits, great vids. Outstanding. Who knew you would catch the bug on my Nikon shooting candid proposal pics!! HAHA,.. gotta take some credit for getting you started. But seriously, you deliver the goods without words. Keep up the good work. Love following your world through the camera lens.
Thanks, Mike! I always tell people you and your Nikon gave me the bug. I’m excited to see you guys in a few months. No doubt there will be a lot of picture-taking then, too.
THIS is Awesome! :)
