Some buddies

[trelaflip]

So I thought I would start off by making my first post in here.

Helping out at a local skateboard/snowboard shop I get to interact with many people. Majority of them being good friends.

This is my first time trying a black and white style portrait. I'm quite happy with the results.

I have a particular fondness for b&w portraits. These are nice and sharp and I like how close-up they are. Wish I could see the eyes in the last one. Makes me wonder what he's thinking behind the sunglasses.

Allow me to be first to welcome you to the Forum. I think you did i nice job on those pictures. The first one could use just a slight tweaking though i think. His skin tone doesn't look quite right. I know this isn't the critiquing section, so you can completely ignore that comment if you wish.;) Actually, "Skin Tone" probably isn't the correct term. It just looks a little bright or blown out I think some would call it. Than again, it may just be me!:D Again, Welcome aboard!!!

OOps!!! Saralonde types faster than I can.:o
