Sometimes the light might not be perfect, and it might just be a quick shot but this is a fave of mine...

I think the treatment balances the lack of tack sharpness so I'd say it's a keeper!

Thanks guys, sometimes it's a bit tricky because the subject is my delicious boyfriend so I ofcourse think any pic with him in it is a keeper.... I do however, love the look on his face, a nice, easy, calm look - which totally takes away from the fact that technically the pic isn't great lol... If only my goodlooking boyfriend was in all my shots to make them look better!

Just concentrate on Kriddy's avatar then... :cool:

I'd say they both got an extra dip in the gene pool...

Some of the best photos that i've ever seen in newspapers/photojouran​ism based magazines (Time etc.) are very similar to this style. This grainy kind of filmy look was very 80's I believe (judging from the stuff i've seen from that era).

Either way, good photo. Now i've just got to make sure my girlie never sees this or else she might get the itch to go looking for some greener grass haha.

It would look great a little less saturated and printed on canvas.

Lol, aaagh, the man crushes... I'm taking that as a compliment! Thanks for the feedback guys, what do you think of this one? Not as grainy, but it's gotta be the eyes yeah?
