I spent Sunday afternoon in the local bar district, and these are a few of the portraits people graciously allowed to be made of themselves. C&C always appreciated. Thanks for viewing, Derek

Derek. You are right about the C&C.

These headshots should be used used as a teaching aid for photographers.

Simply outstanding.

Up close and personal Derek! All very well done. I am not a person that appreciates body piercings on women nor lavish tattoo's. Leaving my personal nits aside, the women are well done and tones very complimentary. My nits dont influence how I see you compositions.
I found the images that appeared soft actually accented the the viewers focus. In most cases, directly to her eyes(#1). Excellent tones and #11 is great. Smiles and happiness seem to be in a minority nowadays. It is nice to see him having fun and the others engaged with the photographer!

They're all really good. I do think the depth of field might be a little too shallow for some of the really close up ones where the nose is completely thrown out of focus though, but that's simply a personal pet peeve.

Very good work. There is a lot to be said for spontaneous portraits.

These are all very nice. This is brave street portraiture. You obviously were able to strike a rapport with your subjects. This is not easy to do.

Saw your photos of the mountain climber, yesterday, and these are just as great to go through. Thanks for sharing.

Although the photo is soft, #1 gets my vote of preference. There is something in the persons expression.
Great portraits overall.
