I forgot this photo, it was in the "next" folder. Spent time working it up, too. His face was "in the shadows", backlit from what light there was. I do let my photos go dark where they want to. Fighting it, making a photo all one degree of lt/dark, it just doesn't do what I want. But I did bring out enough of the man's face that it worked for me. If someone doesn't think it works, let me know how much further I should have gone and how.

He wanted to pose with this Red Drum, the kind of fish. This might be termed a snapshot, lots of these photos floating around of people holding fish, but I like his expression and all, so serious about his fish. Extra friendly man.

I certainly had to work it up, I plan to have one of each person who posed printed so I can give each a copy. And I am sure he would have been wandering around looking for his photo if everyone else got one and he didn't.

Smile, thanks for looking,

ginger

    Thanks, Andy! I was busy with this stuff yesterday, but someone else mentioned that thread this AM. Subjects tend to ebb and flow there, it will come back, or I will bring it back, if I remember.

    Not only did I forget the fisherman, but I had not
    worked up the gator. The man and I know that another gator chewed the head off of this gator, so it just seemed like a "lesser gator". Hey, that is a good title.

    Remember the three Daryls on the Bob Newhart show? He has that kind of expression to me.
