Physical copy of photo needed/Lij in black shirt

Hi Everyone,
What a great site! The photos are just splendid! Thank you to Deenan, Brenda, and when she was with the site, Lucy, for all the hard work!
I am an artist, and I came across a particularly good photo of Elijah for an oil painting portrait I'm planning to do. My question is, do you have, or know of anyone who has, a physical photo of this color picture?:
http://always.ejwfiles.net/images/hotlij1.jpg (It's in General Photos, Gallery 3, top row. Elijah is wearing an open black shirt.)
I'm asking, because to do a good painting of this pose, I'd need a very high quality photo, where all the details of his face can be viewed more clearly. Please let me know if you can assist me, or direct me to who/where I might look. I'd greatly appreciate it!
Thank you!
Kcat

Sorry I can't help, but I need to replace my monitor; it just melted because of that pic.

Nice . Gotta Luv that one. Probably one of my all time favorite Elijah Pictures available. I used to have that one in my pc stored. I don't have it now. I think all you can do is search for it. Try posters.com or something like that.

Thank you for the practical tips. I am definitely still searching. Someone must have, or may yet come across, this one in a physical copy, and when they do, I sure hope they will assist me in this endeavor!
Blessings,

You're the first one to comment on that!
Good luck on your search. But why can't you just save it to your computer and print it out?

Quote from: Aisling on May 10, 2008, 10:33:26 am Your question is a logical one. I did print it out, but the generational factor apparently kicked in, as the image is less than crispy clear, which you've got to have when you are doing precision work in a portrait. That's why I'm hoping someone helps me locate an original! Nothing less than the best for Elijah!
Blessings,
Kcat

I only seem to have this version of the picture:


I may have the other version somewhere in my vast collection of photos but this is the only I was able to find just now.

Thank you Carina!
Yes, this is something I can use for reference; you can see his skin beneath the shadow in one, and it is darker in the other, but I can use this too. I do hope you can find the other version (the one in color where he's looking right at you) as that is the one I'd like to paint.
I have been wondering how old this picture is. A few years don't matter, of course. I just want to have him as close to "now" as is doable with such a picture. Another I think is incredibly intense is the one where he IS the laptop for that Intel magazine ad. That looks pretty recent. Do you have a nice shot of that? Thank you again.
By the way, please let me know what I can do for you in turn for your kindness.
Blessings,
Kcat

Ahh, I see. And I agree completely. Good deal, Carina!
