About the Image(s)
As I now live in Lymm I have joined Lymm Photographic Society,I am still a member off Hoylake and get to as many meetings as I can though it is a 2 hour round trip, the 2 clubs are very different Hoylake has monthly competitions and regular talks and is very PSA orientated whereas Lymm has only 2 competitions a year and both are judged by the pub landlord who lets us use his function room for our meetings I am only a new member and have already given a talk there.
At Lymms last meeting one of the members Emanuelle has some studio lighting and brought it down to the club for a portrait night members of the club acted as models we had a a one light set up with a reflector this gentleman modeled for me and I asked him could he pose for me as if he was in deep thought and this was the result.
How I did it
Canon EOS 5D Mk III lens Sigma 85mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 016 f3055,125s, ISO 800 focal length 85mm Raw file adjusted in photoshop cropped from the top ,converted to mono in the RAW converter and sharpened using a high pass filter and a 2 px stroke added.

Bear in mind that I do not take portraits - exclusively landscapes and I may be being over picky.
Seasons greetings to you and yours.   Posted: 12/08/2025 12:13:09
