This is just incredible, you are just incredible. I'm an huge fan by now. I read the article, and it talks about analogic photography, not digital. How did you manage to recreate the effect on photoshop? If you don't want to say it, i can understand. Anyways watching your photos gives a lot of inspiration. I read the thing about the magazine that stole your photo, and i'm really sorry about that. I would become angry if someone stole a photo of mine, and they suck in confront of yours.
But you're too awesome to care about that, you possess the ability to do such great things, they can steal one photo, but not your experience and talent.

Still, i love your style.

I enjoy the tone-line effect, although I am not quite sure how to achieve it in the digital dark room. You seem to be avoiding telling us how you did achieve it, I would really like to experiment with it...

Verkligen helt underbar bild. Jag tycker den beskriver så mycket, så mycke ärlighet. Det är inte ofta man ser bilder som denna och jag är glad att jag hittade den.

What a fantastic self portrait, I love the use of light and all of the wonderful values you captured, you're a good looking gentleman...a very 'sam elliot' quality if you will

Cheers,
Heather

You're welcome mister!
It would be great, I have to paint it till tuesday so I'm a bit in a hurry, it came out they need the cover sooner fo the album promotion, so it's becoming a "run for your life" style of work
Thanks Bernt!
