Daniel won a competition sponsored by Coca Cola in Zimbabwe to record an album. The Gospel album has been completed and he asked me to take a few snappies for his "CD SLEEVE". This is about the best I came up with.

hope you like it

And you came up with a very nice "snap"! Very emotional image. Nice lighting and contrast.

Las diagonales que forman la luz establecen un mensaje que le llega al hombre desde muy lejos.
Excepcional forma de manejar la luz y el B&W muy atinado.
Felicitaciones.
Saludos.

Great image. I like the light and the shadows.
Very expressive and dynamic. Perfect for a gospel CD

nice shot, th shadows are great and the light... oh my god, is beautiful, congratulations

Perfect Jaco. Good light and contrasts, excellent POV. TFS,
Dave

beautiful work with light and shadows here...they both fall perfectly across his face and body...although it makes it look as if he is in a prison of some sort to me...maybe either physically or metaphorically...was this the intension...great capture...peace***

I think you came up with a great image Jaco! I like how the light is played on your subject. It is perfectly in line with the way his body was leaning forward. The shadows on the table counteracts the leaning subject, and makes the image balanced.

Thanks for sharing!

hi Jaco.
Superb portrait. The best thing is the strips of light and shadow. B&W is fantastic.

Very powerful shot here Jaco!!! The B&W choice is perfect with beautiful tones. Excellent lighting provided a dramatic effect and the shadows make the image for me. I hope he really likes this one. It deserves to be published. Very well done Jaco!
