.....Then the Boys

Yesterday it was female portraits, today it is male portraits. I found far fewer of these, although more than I expected, and it was interesting that they were a different style to the female ones. Very often, the images would be of someone doing something, as opposed to being an image of the person only. More environmental portraits. A hint of this was shown yesterday with such shots as "Liz and her weapon", which wasn't just a prop as she really does practice with weapons and is now a black belt.

Let's see what I found to show you:

So, do I shoot differently with male and female portraits? I'm thinking about the approach taken and how I portray people in pictures, so a bit of self-analysis might be a good idea from time to time. Hopefully it can only lead to improvement.
