Tonight, we had a playdate with our grandsons. Aidan is four, and Craig is 10 months. The effect--Black & White with a slight reduction in opacity--is simple, but I like how it softened the portrait.
...is to fill 52 themes, one a week for the year. Some weeks, maybe I'll try to find several photos to fit the themes. Others, I may spend more time trying to perfect one that seems best to represent the theme. Three years of a photo-a-day opened my eyes, now I want to hone my skills.
Somehow, a camera allows me to see more deeply and awakens the eye. For me, undertaking these year-long challenges is a way to become more aware of the world that swirls around me.
Hey you take away the colour and the healthy rosiness of the cheeks is gone. Great Portrait.
ReplyDeleteLove that hand tinted look - what cuties!
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! I like both the pictures.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful children. Great crop. I'm like Ron, I like those rosey little cheeks.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say - congrats on getting them to both look at you at the same time. No easy task.
