The Flutist
Posted under Color, Critiqued, Portrait
Some images give us joy the moment we see them. This masterpiece has done that for me. The moment I saw the fantastic subject and the extraordinary light my heart was lifted and I wanted to hear his music.
The single source light skims across the subject picking up key points of interest from his eye to his arm to the fingers. The flute itself carries the light like an arrow along its shaft. There is just enough subtle detail in the shadows so the viewer can peer deeply into the darkness.
This image has captured my imagination.
