At my 'local' yesterday afternoon. C & C on pose, composition, etc, great appreciated! All with M 50 1.4, the first two at f4, the third at about f2. Shot in RAW, converted in Silkypix, and a quick mono conversion in iPhoto for the last one. Available light from shuttered window, handheld. Cheers!

Karmazyniello,

Love the HCB portrait; the little bit I know of Ezra Pound tells me that he's really captured something of the poet's persona.

So, if you were meeting my friend and I for a pint at the pub, and we both had our cameras, how would you have posed him and composed the frame differently? (The offer of a pint is good, next time you're in Nova Scotia!)

Cheers!
