Description
You know how it is when you know someone well, and you see them exhibiting a characteristic that is so ... well ... so characteristic? This image does that for me. It's totally Chip. I think it's the position of his hands. I'd know this was Chip even if I hadn't taken the picture myself, even if you didn't tell me it was someone I knew.

Very cool capture interesting note that he wears the camera strap around his wrist like I do.... and here he is taking a picture of you taking a picture of him outstanding
Superb capture and post work Tara. God Bless.
I give up.
fabulous high key. This type of shot has that touch of expressive art which I think is very representative of Chip. Excellent work.
YAYYY!!
The storyteller himself, capturing the essence of another story...excellent shot, Tara!
This is a super shot! I remember that day, perfectly, as if it just happened yesterday...or at the most remote, the day before yesterday. I love what you've done with this. It has such a nice high key, hyper-real quality to it, and it's funny seeing me from this side of the lens. I definitely think we need more days like that one; I feel the ghost-taste of Diet Coke, grapes, and Pecan Sandies. That and Flip Wilson and Read Between the Lions popped into my head. This is super! It's such a fun shot and a marker of such a fun day!
This is such a sweet image of a true friend. :))))) It is so extra nice to have pics of your friends. :))) Most excellent capture. :))))) Thank you for sharing. :)))))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))
A great image. It has a vintage look to me, like something from the thirties. Even the camera fits. Wonderful postwork.
Excellent and very great photo! Congratulations Tara
Great portrait of Chip at work!!
I see it was fun! Aloha
I think you're right, it has 'Chip' written all over it and I've never met him...yet!
Extraordinary and unique, like the man himself. I do love the way the image locks into the left corner with that rightangle, complemented by the repeating verticals..such skill.
It's those mannerisms and behaviours that we register subconsciously that enables us to identify someone even without seeing their face. Like how you can pick out someone you know from a crowd just by seeing the back of their head.
Awesome image!
Wonderful work Tara. He must be a chip off the old block!
Hiya Chip! Nice to kinda see you lol Great looking postwork Tara, well done.. Rob

Really neat high-key portrait of Chip! Great shot, Tara!
Tara, you are 'da spindoctor' - I like what you have done with postwork here, it's unique, it's organic, it's candied, it's wicked - 'ad infinitum' ... a truly sensational composition, BB
