Portraits are not my strong point. I really want to build up my ability to develop a report with people can capture great images in the process. I noticed tanguera portraits and thought they were wonderful. I especially like .

I shot this image in my backyard "studio" using light modifiers I fabricated from foamcore and foil. Lots of speedlights. We had fun doing this too. Special thanks to Ian Salmon for modeling for me.

Like the foreground bokeh with the microphone. Nice and sharp

This is really great. I am embarrassed to say I cannot tell if this a wax sculpture of someone I should know or a really amazing stylized portrait with great PP.
I'll go with the latter and vote in the top 5.
