Description
Hello all!
I am back on line after a month on here.. then two weeks of no internet and a real big move!
All moved into my new house finally!! ( 'cept for the garage stuff that still needs to be organised !! love my new home here!!..twice as big as the other !!
I was MUCH too busy to do many photo shoots but one Sat I managed to go to a pow wow ! . It was dissapointing and the light was harsh and nothing. When I was walking to my car I saw him from across the park far off. This guy here. It was like from another time . His name is Robert and he is a graphic artist -full of personality !.. A single parent. I ran hard and caught up to him and asked him if I could take his picture. He smiled walking away and said I have to take my son to the bathroom . LOL so I waited out side of the restroom and finally he came out. He was too busy with his son . FInally I asked his friend to watch his son . I asked him nicely if he would stand in front of the white Tepee . He was very proud and challenged me on several topics. I was intimadated by him . His spirit was strong humourous. He said oh so your going to use me ? LOL I told him that I loved his look and would send him the picture . He still got in my face and gave me a hard time ! But i got the shot I had hoped for that entire day that I ignored my moving. Thank you Robert if you see yourself on here -( i gave him my gallery info). Taken with my nikon pocket cam on macro mode . Gave it a sepia tone for an old western feel !
Anyways, good to be back on here I have so missed you all., I still have lots to do around my new house and then am going to be working on a new project for my church doing family pictures . SO I will try and come on here as much as I can. Thank you to all of you that wrote me and said hi, You are all so dear to my heart on here..!!...I realised that this is the longest time away from Rend since I came on. Wonderful to have the internet again and see all of your fine work I have missed more than I can say!!...will try to catch up as I can.
* please view full size for best result thank you!
love to you all!
((( Great Big hug! )))

Sweeeeeet! I'm sure Robert will be quite pleased with the results. Obviously he doesn't know what a kind heart you have, but I'm sure this will give hime some insight. A very proud pose caught here...! You were a tiger about not letting him get away, and have been rewarded here with a great shot! So glad your all moved in, the worst part is over. Glad to see your back! Aloha!

You have been missed and your postings have been missed also, lol. You do such great work with the little Nikon and this is a perfect example of that. Your portrait of Robert shows respect, professionalism and technical expertise. Your postwork and presentation leave nothing to be desired. I am sure he will like it and I certainly do. Congrats on the new home. I hope you have nothing but joy and fullfillment in it. Welcome back.

Robert the graphics artist/navaho....LOL. You must have come off as such a stalker waiting for him outside the restroom like that, LOL. Maybe thats why hes not looking into your camera....hmmm....he does indeed seem irritated with you. #:oP Just kidding. Fantastic shot my friend. Really look like professional. How lovely to see you again btw!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY FOR KIMMIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! Youve been missed. #:o)

This is just a fantastic portrait sis.... I can see why you said to Zoom in and I did...Brings out all the vivid detail... He is so wonderful looking and so proud...and you have done him justice in this image sis...I would of love to have heard your all's conversation... I am glad to see you back on line sis...that is why I sent ya an e-mail I thought something drastic had happened...and while a move isn't drastic it sure can be time consuming... This is just very exemplary and stunning...What tribe is he from sis.. Going to my favs...I love to read about the Native Americans Hope he comes to visit us at Renderosity and see all these wonderful comments... And when ya get time I got up a few newbies as well... So so glad your back Hugs Your sis Susan~
