Enjoy his meal

An amazing portrait.  Sharp and spontaneous.  Perfect.  A fascinating character.

Thank you Alex.

Nice that you could get this sort of attention in the middle of his meal.Good full eye contact and nice setting with the clean background.B/W works well here but I am sure this is also great in color.Bravo!

Salutations-Laurent

Thank you Laurent.

Wim

A well positioned and wonderful capture of, I imagine, an interesting character.

I like the way the good detail of the gentleman (?) is seperated from the background... it looks like he could have been sitting in a studio.

One of my favourites.

Many thanks for submitting this one

Regards Doug

Thanks Doug for your comment.

wonderful image.

I like the way you use DoF to isolate your subject. Equally, I like the composition you present here. Its that composition which justifies (IMHO) the monochrome editing. well done indeed

Thank you Art.

Wim,  Would I exaggerate if I said you are the Rembrandt of photo.net,  well the way you use your lighting is just magnificent and this simple portrait is no exception.  I am sure that your secret is passion, persistence to intelligent hard work.  Very best wishes

Thank you Bachir for your nice comment.

I am sure this man would have some amazing things to share about his life. He appears to be quite old and I imagine by the lines and ruggedness to his skin, he has lived in extreme weather conditions or exposed to harsh weather very much. You were very fortunate to achieve this capture. Fine editing as well, Wim.

Warmest regards, Gail

Thank you Gail much appreciate.

Great portrait.

Thank you Museeb.
