Fantastic Shot Bill!
Composition and color scheme is amazing.. my eyes flow from the red chair up to your subject and out the window to enlightenment.
This also feels like that moment when you enter someone's space for the first time, they lead you in..they sit, then you at that moment look at them before you sit yourself!! - Sherwin - www.leozine.com The color palate is really great too. - Margot Avery - web.mac.com/grove.goddess I noticed what looks like a family portrait in the background, and I think that gives the picture depth and a story. - Miss Avarice - missavarice.blogspot.com I like that his shirt matches the curtains. - Jocelyn - http://www.myspace.com/jocelynryder I really like this one. the natural lighting and the colours are beautiful; and the more I look at it, the more engaging I find it. there is clearly an air of this being the classic pose of an academic in his study; but there is something more intriguing about this picture than that.
It's partly the look he's giving you, but I think it's also in the details: the clock, the picture, the mug, the files on his radiator, the window chord contraption (?), the glimpse of wintery New York you can see out of his window, whatever it is he's holding in his right hand... all such lovely details which add up to an intriguing whole.
in short: it makes me want to know more about this man. now, where did I leave that book about string theory..? - Andrea - www.andreamann.com This shot seems like it should go in the back cover of a book he wrote. Since he's an author, maybe he should get on that. - Peter Boysen - http://www.peterboysen.com You have an uncanny ability to seamlessly blend shadows, light and color. Quite amazing. - James Curtis Smith - http://www.justjames.org What's he holding? At first I thought they were Q-tips but that can't be so. :)
*** It's a pen. -bw<br /><br /><i>Edited By Siteowner</i> - Danielle There is both a masculine and feminine feel to this even with the dark colors. His face emerges and is enigmatic. No way to guess what he's thinking but certain that he his. Perhaps that is where I get the femininity part. Like classical beauty that face is. - Boo great shot!! nature - singapore architecture interio - http://www.209photography.com/
I'm Bill Wadman, a New York-based photographer who after completing my first 365 Project, and then a weekly 52 Project, took it upon myself to shoot and post one portrait every day of 2007. Each photo was taken that day, and each day was a different subject. Some were be in the studio, some in the wild. Hopefully they are all interesting.
