The natural light here is just what I think we all look for when taking portraits you have taken full advantage of this light & presented a fine portrait well done Chris good to see you grace the front page.
Chris Dixon  Gerard,

thanks very much for your kind words....at home there are days when what we call the "penetrating light" hits the house....i won't submit the pictures of the dust it shows up. :-)

Hi Chris. So nice to see a new Dixon up on the FP. His look reminds me of that short interval after dad read my school report card, and let me know what he thought about my underachievement...:)
Chris Dixon  Andre, many thanks...I had that look from my dad on many occasion
