Portarit of my fifteen year old blue-eyed son, Hávar, taken yesterday at a summer cottage in southern Iceland. Only window light. Not much more to it!

PS: Converted to BW, levels, curves, adding a vignette, resized, sharpened, framed. Tried to keep the softness of his skin.

A very handsome young man. He will turn the young girls' heads if he isn't already. Voted earlier.

Interesting technique to use B&W and then title in colour. Solid portrait just the chin a bit tight on frame.
