Talen you look awesome in that jacket and gloves, but isn't your head cold? I mean, I know you're a marine and all that, but... well, isn't it chilly? You look badass too, like any minute you're expecting a call from some Don about a hit. But the flower thing gives the whole 'sensitive' vibe as well.

Nice photos Avalon. I used to do photography, until I realised I sucked at it. You rock. I love black and white pics. I like the one which is b/w except for Talen's tie, which is only slightly red. How did you do it? Photoshop, or did it come from actually developing the film in a certain way?
That would be photoshop, I just desaturated it a bit. Perhaps some other things too, I'll have to go back and look. A lot of these shots I put up I'm still just playing with: the eventual set I assemble for my portfolio will be more professional.

It was actually really warm that day, I think he was sweaty in the coat. The lengths that boy will go to, just to look pretty. :P

Oh, and Dooey Jo, I have about 6 shots of him slowly approaching the ball. I told him to look at it as if he had no idea what it was. The idea was that he's just naturally cold and dictatorial, and has never experienced a playground or joy.

Shit, why didn't I think about that? Aside from the glasses he'd be a dead ringer.
I am just surprised that no one else thought of it before.

I like the third from last one. The whole grayscale thing plus the cherry blossoms(?) just does it for me.

Good shots I must say. But I can't see him as a dictator.. the clothing is.. off.
