Year 2014 has come to its final kick and since there hasn't much photography projects aside from my food reviews, I'd like to share my favorite portraiture collection.
Noticeably, I have had no male models for the last two years and I also realized that most of my faves are in black and white. The drama in portraits seem to have been my major theme. Gladly, comparing my old portraiture to this collection, there has been a change of style and a little refinement in detail (whew!). Indeed, the first 10,000 photos are the worst photo that a photographer can take. Reaching almost my 10,000th photo, I am happy that I am learning more and (not to brag) improving.
