Colour of Pomegranates

I have realised in the past little while that I really love taking portraits. Mainly of my kids as they are with me most of the time. I do have a couple of Haig too, one I took with Impossible film a few months ago which I really like. I will share those with you soon.

These portraits and selfie below were taken at different times and when looking at them I wonder what I thought when framing the picture. Did I know that the lines in the portrait of Ani would correspond to each other somehow making it an image not just about Ani but everything else around her.

Or this self portrait that I took when in Armenia. Why did I take it? Was I testing something on the camera or did I just like the framing of the image and I just took it? I think it was the latter as the viewfinder on the medium format camera shows everything so beautifully.

And this one of Jivan, I know why I took it. The sun had peeped its head out in the late afternoon and was saying hello in our bedroom. He just happened to be there on our bed and the light was just stunning on him. I love how with black and white it shows the moodiness of the moment and of him as I had to coerce him to pose for a second. He is a seven year old moody boy who at times is ever so loveable!
