    Call me Al

    My English teacher (Nice) Mr. Hawkes kindly agreed to be a model for me! He has great character in his face, and combined with his beard and glasses, I was very pleased with the results - especially with this one. Using a single source lighting set-up, from the right, the original image was brightly coloured, and a tad too bright. In Photoshop I de-saturated it, and altered contrast and brightness levels, to achieve this cinematic look and feel to the shot.

    Chakir Boudjabi and Anna Netrebko Fan added this photo to their favorites.

      OMG! I look like Alan Sugar! ("Jonny - you're hired!")

      Good lighting and composition, too.
