Such a dramatic expression of disappointment, I think… It’s all about the perspective, really…

Wow…....this face emerging from the dark. Very dramatic composition.

It’s not a disappointing shot. This is excellent. Well done.

Perhaps I should have clarified in the description that the face, to me, reflected a disappointing feeling… ;-) thanks for your comments and btw – I LOVE your work!

I knew it was the face you were referring. Sorry, my way with words. I tend to say one thing and mean more than one. Just love to see my friends thinking twice before they answer what I just said. Love this shot a lot. Well done.

Thanks, Margpie! I appreciate the comment…
Soxy Fleming!
he doesn’t look happy. wonder if you could change that a bit by lighting it in a different way, you know shadows in other directions. very dramatic picture.
R. Jason Smith replied
Thanks for your comment, Georgiana… I was going for an expression of disappointment, which is not a happy look. That’s why the light is coming from this angle, but yes, with the use of shadows and directional lighting, many different expressions can be brought out…

I think he’s more disproving of something, which is quite similar to disappointed, when you think about it, but not quite the same thing. Or maybe a little of both. Kind of like a parent who’s caught their kid sneaking in late or some equally grevious offense, but then apply it to God, humankind, and something more serious.
R. Jason Smith replied
That’s pretty deep… I sometime imagine a caption-bubble over his head reading, “Here we go again…” – as his eyes seem to roll to the back of his head… ;-) Thanks for the comment, Julie – much appreciated!
