I do like to single out photos that are mostly overlooked despite having a lot of quality and this is certainly one. It's not only that you saw them and photographed but more how you portrayed them that resonates. Most likely they belong to a club of sorts but it posesses a quality beyond that. Mostly it's your low point of view that sets them of great, the low angle really works here. Both your subjects and the way you photographed them created a timelessness that can only be described as classic, something which I very much like myself. It's aphoto that one is able to look at with the same amount of pleasure now as well in a few decades, not a small feat to accomplish. Personal preferences aside I do think this one would benefit from a tad more contrast and while it's always difficult to judge from a low res image perhaps a bit more sharpening on your original as well. Overall I would say this is a outstanding portrait.

Thank you Ton for taking the time to make your generous comments.Your observations have been most helpfull and encouraging.Your suggestions regarding contrast and sharpening are spot on.This was one of my earlier attempts at photoshop and I have been meaning to revisit it among others, with my now somewhat improved PS skills.
