rocco Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) And I need to talk to you about AIPP membership. There's no reason why you couldn't join as an emerging member seeing as now you are technically working as a photographer. There are great benefits and you will be able to enter the awards. :p Cool thanks Ash, let me know because if I can I would love to join. I might have to build a pool room for all my awards................. :rolleyes: But comment on the edges and keep in the middle, that is only if I am shooting at 17 right? Almost missed that one Rocco1, it'll be slightly more obvious at 17, decreasing as you move towards 35. You might already have a feel for it with the 24 end of yours. It all comes down to personal preference. I don't mind a little bit of distortion or Big Head (Or Other Body Part) Syndrome, especially with portraits; Platon uses it very effectively, check out his portraits of Clinton, George HW Bush, Pat Buchanan and Rev. Al Sharpton. Eta: And go look at Christian Bale, Jim Carrey, Prince, Alexander McQueen and Paul Smith. :rolleyes: I actually don't mind the distortion either. I like it. RD I am starting to like you more and more. You have such great taste in photographers....... Platon huge fan. Not so fussed on his fashion/advertising work though.

Poo d'état Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 (edited) I thought you'd like him. His aesthetic and style definitely works better as straight up portraiture. He loves his wide lens too. :D Edited April 10, 2009 by ruffdiamond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
