This time one is cropped, the other not. This time the shirt is unbuttoned one button down, showing more of the orange shirt. This time I’m looking away from the camera, instead of right at the camera. Choices, well, when the shirt was buttoned to the top button the day before, I had just forgotten to unbutton the top button. But the look is kind of cool there too. In the end, some folks would say it doesn’t matter. But in this age of images, maybe it does in a subtle way.
It’s good to have friends like Alain who are generous in spirit and want to help. Alain is a great artist in his own right. For instance, he’s done album covers for B.B. King, among others.
And one more portrait, for good measure. I’m working here with my Canon 100mm macro lens, opened up to f/2.8. It works very well on butterflies, too.
