Re: Middle aged man
Good capture, but a very repelling countenance, especially compared to the enchanting man in the turban.

I would like some info on your equipment and shooting process, since you do such great portraits.

The equipment has an important part on the quality of the pictures. However, a middle range equipment can - in the right hands - make a good work.
I use Canon. I keep thinking that it should have been Nikon but now that I have so much from Canon I am not going to change.
Canon 20D + Canon 5D old model + Canon G9 + 380 EX flash + 450 EX flash + Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 + Canon 24-79 f/2.8 + Canon 70-200 f/2.8 + Canon 1,4 multiplier + NDF 4* + CPF + basic Canon timer.
In India I used the 20D with the 24-70 and the 5D with the 16-35.
I love wide aperture lens which I think are an important atribute. I miss a camera with capabilities of large ISO without noise. The weight is a pain. The 70-200 is superb for portraits ! I missed it.
And you what have you got ?
Remember: if you Oh and I was forgetting what I have and is crucial - crucial - for good images: Mac 27" with 4 processors and bla, bla, bla, LR and CS5. And I spend days in front of it !
Continuing: if you fail your images when you shoot do not blame the camera, blame yourself.
