Excellent. You can see the life his face. His posture tell of a man that doesn't take crap. Don't bs me. I can make your life very hard. This has to be one of the best portraits I have seen.

Cool capture Top. I wish I had this when I was doing your video. Wink. The angle of the shot of this distinguishing man is great. The clarity is excellent. The capture of the light is excellent. The presentation is balance and very eye appealing to the viewer. Creative approach and awesome work overall (clapping)..oh I posted a new video that this time features Eileen 0204..check it out (thumbs up)

    Thanks Troop. Saw this guy in a town in Mexico. The black and white contest made me change this and it looks better in B&W. Thanks for the Six. I'm glad you are doing a video of the works of Eileen. She is really talented. Drive on Troop ~ Top

Steve,
A beautiful black & white picture of the handsome Mexican Caballero with his life history written in his expression. His eye fixed on something to his left. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera & editing techniques & sharp focus.

This is an outstanding portrait. You captured the personality of the man excellently. Your photo is perfect focused and exposed and has good depth. The light from left, while the man looks to the right is extraordinary. The sophisticated lighting emphasizes the expression of the man perfectly. The conversion to black and white adds a timeless appearance. The portrait is excellent compost. The man has a perfect placement within the frame. The composition is balanced.

Beautiful expressive photograph of the man that you are so skillfully presenting here.

So suitable black and white choice and great details the are making us wonder what a life challenges this man had to work through.
Thank you for sharing!

Portrait photography looks interesting and displays the expression, personality, and mood of the subject. You have captured the essence of it in this shot of this elderly gentleman.. Good effort!

Such a great photograph my friend I really enjoy black-and-white photography. I find them so expressionistic and dramatic. I really love the expression you've captured of this man's face it's really phenomenal.
