`Portrait of an Artist With His Self Portrait`

notes:
This is a portrait of an architect/artist friend of mine, Ayrie, who is an incredibly soulful and spiritual being. I captured this image one day when I was in his office and he was unaware that I was behind him. The wooden mask on the wall above him was carved by him. Not only is he an incredible architect, he is also an engineer and artist in several mediums. The mask is a self portrait. Film rated at 320 ASA, 1/15 Sec., f2.8

It is mystical work very much and is very good. It not for all. Only for those who is able to think. And still your frameworks not so like to me personally. Such magnificent works and such hackneyed frameworks. I have presented this work dressed in richer frame and.... Photoshop 6 has very good base for creation of every possible frameworks.

Could also be called "Eerie Reflection" since the real bust and the mask are so similar.

IMO only Daniel (and I see I`m not alone), I find the frames take away from your photos upon my viewing. A suggestion only but a clean photo or different choice of frame would possibly work better.

So glad you went ahead and posted it Daniel! It`s eerie and it`s cool. The atmosphere is so thick.... I love it.... and the frame doesn`t offend me at all.
