Description of this challenge topic:
I'm almost in the allowed time limit to post a new challenge. Sorry for the delay.
The reason: I had to help setting up an improvised but almost complete mini-studio for shooting portraits in the field.
Portraits have bee asked before in these challenges, sometimes with very special requirements.
Influenced by the work of today, I will ask you portraits again.
Not essential the multiple lights, backdrops or other studio-like implements, just 2 things:
- a carefully chosen location.
- Composition and/or framing to make the face(s) of your subject(s) the main part of your photography.
To add some possibilities, I'm allowing up to a second person in your photo, if you like. This broadens the scope of the 'portrait' to brothers, twins, couples, mom with a kid etc.
No more than two persons please, to keep the importance of the faces in the photo.
Good luck.
