    I love the tones here Robert, really brings out, with all due respect, the ‘artificialness’ . Love the perspective and I love the pout. Work it baby!

    Thanks everyone. False eyelashes bring out extraordinary things in eys. Jo, falsies and pouting – all a good drag queen needs really..oh and a bit of attitude helps too :)) Work it indeed!

    All parts in his face are so sharp and beautiful and this light blue tone makes his face so mysterious but soft too. Nice image Robert.

    Glad you like this image RB’s. Thanks Penny – nice to meet you. Mayuphoto, I liked the blue tones too – tried it in pink and B&W (both good) but this seemed to be the right choice .)

    I need more practice putting my new falsies on- I got glue in my eye, oooo burning.

  • Robert Knapman

    Robert Knapman

    Ouch. You just need a little glue – put on lash then lash on skin…or so I’m told :P
    Sometimes easier for someone to do it for you. Ask for advice in the forums – that could be fun hehehe

    Thanks Marie .) He is Italian actually -though atypical appearance, and his partner is in the B& W shot I uploaded. I am happy to email you although it is very simple :P

    Sorry, finally getting around to commenting on this;) though by now you must know it’s a fantastic shot & treatment. Love the way you’ve emphasised the planes of the face and the bold eyes, all that strength of personality wreathed in gossamer makes a striking image. The blue tone just makes the soulful eyes leap out at you. The positioning of the subject is just spot on, too. Well done:)

    Spotted your lashes comment Robert lol! Hehe, I’m not sure they’d suit me (or even the logistics of making them work!)

  • Robert Knapman

    Robert Knapman

    Lol…If you ever do drag (for the fun of it…) remember the 3 essentials 1. wig 2. shoes 3. lashes ….the rest simply falls into place – incredibly. Take care ,)

    Thanks people. This shot really lent itself to a little post processing. I bit of playing with contrast and colour reveals some essence, some soul. Thanks .)

    Hmmm. I can hear Annie Lennox singing: I Need A Man … The wig and the lashes don’t hide a thing – this is a lovely, honest, intimate portrait. Nicely done. Ax

  • Robert Knapman replied

    Thank you very much Ash. Yeah and great pick of tune. An anthem if ever I heard one .)

  • Ash Sievwright
