Wow! These high-key images are quite a departure from your usual portfolio Rel and very impressive. I prefer the B&W version though the washer/toy to the left is a little distracting. I love the fish tap - excellent stock photo!

I like these as well.

going against the grain and going with the colour version.

unless of course you were printing the whole series and then you would keep em all b/w

Oh YES Rel, you definitely have eye contact there. Almost impossible to escape!
The B&W one gets my vote for sheer impact although the colour one has a nice soft feel to it plus the lack of the toy on the left is a big plus. Disappear the toy in No. 1 & WOW! :D
All the best

I really like the second colour one and think it would look great done on canvas.
The first to me is a little harsh.

Rel
The high key colour shot is as good as they get. Masterful control!

Rel, as the others have said, just gorgeous. Can I ask how these "high key" shots are done?

Hi Rel...

A great departure from your usual style of photos...
#2 is great and takes my vote over the B&W #1... I'd love to see #2 in B&W as well... (I'd post it myself, but I'm too lazy :lol:)

Beautiful series Rel. Your brother (in law)/sister (in law) (strike out as appropriate) must be delighted with these
