Beautiful Portraits

Managed to find time to visit the Taylor Wessing Photographic Portrait Exhibition at The National Portrait Gallery last weekend. Really interesting set of prints on display and inevitably, some images are drop dead gorgeous and left me feeling green with envy - others left me wondering 'why?' - the winning shot especially is a good example of this response! But I guess exhibitions are kind of like fashion week in Paris - the clothes demand attention, prompt conversation and / or praise / ridicule accordingly, but its not real life. The Taylor Wessing competition is like that - every picture will generate a response but maybe not everyone would find a space on your wall. Exhibition runs until 14/2 so still time to visit.

Mary McCartney also has some of her images on display too - also well worth a look.
