7th March 2005, Aiden

A lady from Oxford University Press was in contact on Friday.
They want to use one of my pictures in a book.
It was a picture of Aiden,
one of my favourite pictures of him in fact.
He was not very well at school today,
so I collected him and took him home.
He seems alright now though,
bouncing on the bed.

I looked at this while in the USA and thought I'd commented - not so I see now - however, I would like to record for posterity that it's f*cking wonderful!!!

Great shot! Beautiful lightning on his face! He is really growing up, isn't he! Sorry that it's been awhile I've visited your galleries. So cool that someone will use your photo in a book! I'm jealous!

I can understand why they want to use this photo. Wonderful portrait.

Very nice of Aidan--love the sprinkling of freckles. Bouncing on the bed, huh, means he's happy to be home.

This is so lovely, I mean "What a handsome young man!"…I think you should talk to Mrs. N about having more beautiful children!

Congratulations on the possible sale! That's great news.

Children seem to bounce back easily after they are sick. Very lovely portrait. I love the light and shadow play against his face. I can see why someone would want to publish it in a book.

Beautiful portrait!
Michael Todd Thorpe07-Mar-2005 19:34
Excellent! Great B/W and Aiden seems so pensive, the lighting really works...

Fantastic light on Aiden's face.. perfect pose, as if he's deep in thought. beautiufl in b&w..

And to add to Zak's question, what are they using it for in the book? And congrats.. that's excellent!

Excellent use of light. Great mood in this portrait!
anthony legg07-Mar-2005 18:41
I agree with ray, the light is superb.
Great image.
Zak07-Mar-2005 18:40
nice shot, how did the Oxford Uni come across your pic then?
Ray :)07-Mar-2005 18:18
This is absolutely superb. The lighting astounds me.
I was approached by OUP (Hong Kong) but they were not prepared to give me anything.
