Description
For those of you keeping track at home, this is my brother Trent. I shot this at his 50th birthday party. (He looks pretty good for 50, doesn't he?)
White balance set, hand held, available light, no flash. The original image was a bit soft, but nowhere near what you could call blurry. (That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it!) Well, okay ... maybe it was a LITTLE blurry.
Anyway.
Soft focus postwork was the way to go, and I liked the soft color, as well.

You have a very handsome brother and he has a great sister!
He looks like a Nordic ski instructor here. Good looking family. Excellent post work.
a portrait that shows him to have refined, good humor. Nice shot.
What a wonderful picture of your brother. I wish I had looked this young when I was 50!
I love this shot of Trent--the soft focus works really well!!
Yup, I feel like I know Trent. Excellent photo. Soft does work well here. Again, I am struck by the fact that I don't know much about portraiture and am grasping for words. Have you ever thought of asking Trent to sit speciifically for a portrait? You could experiment, using a tripod with both profiles, full face, quartering shots, and all sorts of lighting. Would he be up for you using him as a practice face? Just a thought:)
wonderful work warm hugs that smile, Linda Kaye
Wonderful portrait Tara! WOW - I just love the lighting and the gentle postwork is perfect! He is gorgeous... :))
This has such a beautiful soft look and I like the lighting here. Yes he looks really handsome.
I believe you(!) Anyway it has worked beautifully, he looks great!
Very nice portrait :)
I have always said you are quite brilliant at taking portraits!!! This one is a stunner.... Rob..
super portrait
lovely portrait!! Hope I age as well!!
Fantastic image
This is gorgeous work and a lot better than the "soft focus" once achieved in the classic episodes of Star Trek (rubbing Vaseline on the camera lens--so I've been told.) This has a wonderful ambiance to it, and it has that dream-effect I like so much! Great work!
did a good job on the postwork
Hi Trent.....you did good....
Very well done, love the mood exuded by it all! Cheers, Clive
Nice capture, he does look a young 50, very nice soft Focus...
I like the soft focus. He looks excellent for 50. Lovely portrait!
