I would like to specify this page to my black and white photography that I took in my photo-40 class

Portraits are one of the most useful, intimate and powerful uses of photography.
 Depending on their purpose portraits can be flattering, informative or artistic. For this assignment I was to make a series of 3-5 meaningful fine art portraits. 

This was an exercise in making conceptual portraits through a fine art lens. Creativity was evident along with obvious control over manual camera settings F-Stop, Shutter Speed and ISO.

All images are  belong together in this cohesive series of work and are edited in Lightroom . .
