"Nova" and company

More Nova ...

And Ohhh brother ...

The younger brother was not my subject but I turned around and saw this and couldn't resist. I like the different angles and shapes. His face is not in clear focus but I think it could be painted. I could not get him back into this pose and he would not keep still.

And for you fans of flash photography, here is an apples and apples comparison of natural light and flash for the same scene.

OK, you have really got some great skin color to work with. If It were me, I'd go for the image of Nova looking at us over the back of the chair, including the hanging carpet just where it is. It wouldn't bother me a bit that part of his mouth is hidden. A nice square composition, ya think?
