Well Rokkstar really. Taken at the Ferry Hop. While I tend not to do portraits, sometimes I like to do so for a bit of variety. Shot #2 was taken with Matt's 85/1.8. All other shots were taken with my new :) Nikkor 28-70/2.8

And if you can't get enough - there's more Rokkstar HERE :D

Matt - you should see the bad ones! Then you'd be scared :wink:

Like #1 the best here Peter. Use of split light and the backgound really add to the mood/feel of the shot. Matt the D200 looks good on you :wink:
cheers

Heeeeeey Rokkstar! Excellent work Peter, we are really going to miss Matt when he heads back to the UK, some great shots.

#1 is so damn cool, he makes cameras look trendy, almost like a weapon.

#1 is a winner - looks almost posed ;)

The others are nice, casual candids. Cool!

Thanks for your comments people. I just find Matt a really interesting subject. BTW #4 is Matt scoping the territory for the first shot in THIS POST

I think these are great shots that work well as a series. Maybe you can find a picture of Matt in which he doesn't hold a camera, to round it off?

Cheers
Steffen.

Stubbsy,

#1 is a masterful bit of portraiture. These images aren't your normal caper, but you seem to have hit the spot with this image. Excellent.

#3 ... nice crumpler :D

That is one big poser if I do say so myself! :lol:

Great series of pics Peter, you had a very co-operative and not so camera shy the subject matter which really added to the images.

Matt should start charging people $$$ :D
