Alternative portraits. Alternative processes. Alternative poses or subjects. Portraiture is my one great love in photography, and a subject i very seldom pursue. Why? I think i’m scared, too shy, too afraid of the interaction. In order to make a really good portrait, you have to get in there, get personal. You have to make a connection with your subject, and I have a hard time looking into someones soul for more than a few awkward seconds. Oh, but i do love taking a portrait.

I’ll be back on April 7th ish 2019. For my next curation I will be asking for your interpretation of the contrast between dark and light… evil and good… light and shadow… Do your worst, show me your best. Submit your image here.

Every week the FSC features an article with a Curated Photostream that is open to all.  You may only submit one (1) photo and it *must* be a jpeg file and no larger than 20 MB. Please title the file "Title_Camera_Film_YourName.jpg" so that we may properly credit you if your photo is selected. Remember to check our Submit page to see all currently open photostreams.
