Jako Pooman. Norwood Model #1, Norwood (Jhb) March 2023

DPC Basic Course Portrait Workshop during March 2023. It was right after the basic course, so my fingers were still figuring the camera out. But this shot did not come out too bad, even though the aperture was not perfect for the portrait.

  Great portrait, Jako, especially the expression and toning. However, this portrait could be enhanced by slightly darkening the highlights and a bit of skin retouching.

I am an amateur/enthusiast/hobbyist photographer looking to improve my technique and find my style. Right now, I enjoy all types of photography. I lean more towards the challenge of street photography and enjoy the mix of technicality, composition, and creativity of studio work.

As an educator and Vice-Principal of BMT College, I get to do what I love, by creating opportunities for people to learn and improve their worlds.

I absolutely believe that every one of us has infinite potential, but that our purpose for existence is only a fraction for ourselves and mostly for other people.

Focus on and enjoy the process, the work, the grind. Have fun. The rest will follow.
