December project...portraits

[Nicci]

Fun is important. More than one photographer has dropped the hobby/business because it wasn't fun anymore. Besides these are pretty nice and I especially like the cat even if it doesn't have any ears.

Thanks
HAHAHAHA I didn't even notice that I cut off his ears. I just like the "yeah, whatever" look on his face. He was a very special cat.

Once in a while I get some mostly casual if I see something and can get somebody to stay still a moment.

Frog, -- I just can't help myself -- I can't believe what I saw -- is that two photos from you with body parts going out of the frame?? Girl's hand and dog's ears??

Couldn't resist! They're all very nice photos!

[Frog]

Lol....sure enough, Paula. I think I've posted both of these in the past and the dogs ears sort of bothered me......sept. this year I believe. My gd was last Christmas.
I see you are looking at detail much closer now.

There are some really solid pictures in here.

Jetrim, I see the teacher also took a student role

I'll go the opposite way with my post:

Early Christmas gift for local sheriff's deputy and his family, we rock!

A dryer fire was contained to the laundry room by Mary Ann TWP firefighters today (my fire house). Also responding and operating at the scene Hanover TWP and Newton Fire Departments.

the picture is of me, standing in the background, Chief Jim Glover of Newton TWP and Travis Broughna on the right bottom of Mary Ann TWP. The fire was up a long drive on top of a hill. All Fire Engines were forced to sit at the road, only a 4x4 mini pumper was able to brave the driveway. I was the engineer on our fire engine so I didn't have to walk up the hill.

[Alison]

Oh my goodness! You can so tell what their choice of careers are, just by looking at their pictures!

[Frog]

Alison, you have more good portraits than I've ever shot. Mine are all just luck.
I like yours a lot, too, r_w

[Alison]

Thank you Frog. I am lucky to have so many willing models

R_W - That baby pumpkin shot is sooooo cute!

I love looking at everyone's work. So much inspiration here in one thread!

[w.slayman]

I posted this one on the Capture a Photographer Thread, It is a self Portrait, Canon A1, Canon 55mm F1.2 AL, Fuji Superia ISO 400, /15 @ F1.2.

The second is a neighbor's 5 year old grandson, who is going to take Payton Manning's job, and also Tom Brady's, with his Nerf football. Same camera, lens, and film, 1/1000 @ F2.0
