These two men in this unmanipulated photo in an unidentified country

bear a remarkable resemblance to the late writer Ernest Hemingway.

Selective focus allows for an unusual double 'portrait' using two

figures to represent essentially one -- leaving the unanswered

question -- are the men twins? (I couldn't tell for sure). Your

ratings and critiques are invited and most welcome. (If you rate

harshly or very critically, please submit a helpful and constructive

comment/please share your superior photographic knowledge to help

improve my photography.) Thanks! Enjoy! John

It was quite a difficult job 'working' these two guys -- keeping their two heads in juxtaposition for such a shot, and keeping the focus as such as I was constantly moving and fearful they would take offense at me behind and around them, with my medium telephoto constantly focusing and ringing them in, kind of like one of those sheepherding dogs -- you know the kind, a working dog, that surrounds the quarry -- thank you for the recognition.

 

There were a variety of failed attempts which makes some success that much sweeter.
