Love of My Life
by Ann Chaikin

Our kitchen

I took this one recently almost as a joke. My brother was visiting and I was showing off my camera. Turned out to be a good one of "the old guy" as I affectionately call my husband Arvin. He recently celebrated his 75th birthday. Amazingly young man for his age.

Canon EOS 10D ,Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM

Ann: Wonderful. I think I just saw the clearest window to your husband yet. High-character image with great composition, color, and clarity. Again: Wonderful. --Joe

I really like this, Ann. I think it would make an even better B & W, only because of all the distractions in the backround. I think B & W puts all the attention on the wonderful character you've portrayed here. Just my 2 cents and again, I love the image! Mark J

IMpressive character portrait, Ann. He looks comfortable as he should be and the smokes adds allure and interest to the photo. Well done. Lookin' good, Arvin!
