As a hobby, Jerry finds small trees encased in vines which give the

tree an unusual spiral.

Steve,

This is a great portrait. I love everything about it. It is very creative having him come out of the "matting." Excellent composition.

I just wish his facial skin tone wasn't so red.

Nice shot,

Mark

Hamid.

stunning work

love the lighting very nice !

I absolutely LOVE this image. I have a a feeling his face was ever bit as red as it shows here. And from my experience, if you take the red out, it completely changes who he is. To stay true to the essence of the person, sometimes you have to show it like it was, not how it cosmetically looks best. I wouldn't change a thing about the image, but I agree...the signature needs to be much smaller. It detracts from the overall image; and it would look much more authentic without the drop shadow. Just my opinion.
