    Portraits of a different sort

    I can't get people to sit for me so these are my first efforts at creating some portraits.

    1.) Portraits of a different sort

    2.) Portraits of a different sort

    3.) Portraits of a different sort

    I love the execution and outcome and can feel your ire at not having willing subjects to photograph.

    I like the 3rd one. Perhaps a tad more space on the left, and clone out the black line at the bottom of frame.

    Agree with Greg's comment on no. three but the first is the stand out for me. It's all about the light.

    All kinds of terrible puns come to mind when I look at these.

    Regardless. they are well thought out and executed. You have used the hard lighting to your advantage. I doubt people would have looked nearly that good in those lighting conditions. I agree with Greg and John; #3 could use a bit more space, likely on the left, right and bottom. Both the subject and the shadow are running to close to the edge of the frame.
