Photographer's Note
There is not a single element of human presence on Earth more important to photography than...
THE FACE !
All of them !
The only other element that can be compared to the human faces is: The snow flake.
Billions of them and no two of them alike !
G.G.
........................
Breathlessly searching for the faces…
How to disarm the fears of the most beautiful woman in front of my lens…?
Piece of cake, brothers and sisters… Just a small potato for the outstanding photographer like myself…
I'd cracked a joke, she'd smiled, I pushed the button and… Tada !!!
The dumbest fotka of the most beautiful woman is there…
Yours to cherish and adore .. :-)))
Producing dumb photos is actually a fascinating tradition, having its roots firmly established at the very beginning of the photography,
No one is immune from participating in the process, not many of us are fully aware of our very own dumbness…
How to be aware of our very own dumbness ?
Well… Keep posting these photos of ours on a daily basis, folks. Why should you spend your money on a shrink, when you can get the same results from posting on a free photo site !!!
More dumb fotkas to come… Promise …

Hi,
Graceful lady with nice smiling face.
Though I am not sure whether the grains works well here or not.
Regards.

George,
When you call it a dumb fotka it's okay by me, for me having this woman in front of my lens would like been in heaven ;-)
Even that grain in her face can't touch her....look at that smile...priceless..!!!!
Keep on posting these dumb fotka's of her, i wouldn't mind ;-)
Take care,
Henk

She has a radiant face and her smile here is so sweet... You were certainly inspired !
Great note as well - the model is so beautiful that no photo of her could be a "dumb fotka", plus you caught very well her expression and she seems very much at ease and natural with you...
So, I like this photo and I'm not the only one here !
Cheers,
C.

Got it, Dumb and Dumber :-). Happy times in perspective, I'll keep an eye on your gallery, Mr. Polonaise. A beauty, a lady, very vibrant, love that sepia tonality. Grain a bit heavy on the left side over her lips but that smile...
I'll fire my shrink tomorrow.

Hi George,
With a woman that beautiful, I'm afraid I would have messed up the joke and she would be laughing - at me! Far from a dumb fotka - I find these types to be the very hardest of all to take. The subjects move, they do unexpected things, they do not cooperate and when they do you do not get a great photograph. What a conundrum. Oh well, I'll keep watching the master and aspire to even part of that greatness.
Thanks,

Hi,
A fantastic portrait, very different from most portraits here. There is a soul moving in there.
Very very nice!

Jest kilka twarzy JEJ w twym albumie.
Z rσżnych DAT.
Pewnie z rσżnych miejsc ...
Byłeś blisko ...
Byłeś bardzo dobry, for sure ...
Jesteś ...
Tylko Cię rzadko widać ...
Jakieś drobne labelki przy PN niektσrych zdjęć świadczą, żeś ŻYW ...
17.12 soon :-(
Jesteś przesądny :-)
Jeśli tak, to ...
Lej na to ...
...
Zrσb nam prezent świąteczny, nawet bez zdjęć ...
Jakaś celna krytyka ...
Nawet może być w angielszczyźnie ...
Żyj
