I have been dying for an opportunity to show you this portrait of my lovely friend, actually he is the partner of one of my all-time-favourite people, so he has become a dear friend of mine as well. You may remember his silhouette from the Photo101 Solitude post.
Cardinal Guzman has challenged me to join in the 5-day B&W photo challenge, where I must post a black and white photo each day for 5 days and nominate someone else to join the challenge. I’d like to nominate dear Lucile de Godoy to join the challenge with me.
This photo (also as part of Photo101 Rehab) was taken with my Olympus OMD EM5 camera with a 60mm (120mm equivalent) macro lens at f/2.8 and at 1/4000s (wow so fast) and with an ISO of 2500. So, clearly, I could have dropped the ISO and slowed down the shutter a little. Regardless, I am so happy with the results. This boy is a great subject, very photogenic. He has many voices and also many accents – he is very talented when mimicking accents from all over the world!
To join this challenge, you must post B&W photography for the next five days, and each day nominate another photographer to enter the challenge. Good luck! I’m looking forward to seeing the results!
