Christal,

I really like how this guy fills the frame.  Lots of detail to be seen in the larger view.  I see this was shot several years ago so you must be reprocessing some older work.  Well, I do that as well just because I now have more experience using LR. Excellent shot and post-processing.

Yes, I'm processing some very old stuff.  Now that I have Lightroom, I'm going back to give key words to my images so I can locate them when I want to.  That's life-changing for me!!!  In the process of doing that I'm deleting many of my images that I'll never do anything with.  As I come across what I think is a decent shot, I'll post it.  Glad you like this one!

This is quite the grizzled old guy but a wonderful portrait.  I, too, like the full frame view... Mike

Hi Christal,

  Beautiful portrait with amazing lighting, colors & details. Take care, Patsy

Your 105mm worked great for this well detailed Portrait of this 'King'. Well done Christal.  Some times it is enjoyable to go back and see what we took in the past, and then process now when we have learned more.  He has a rather gentle expression here.

Mike.....LOVE that word grizzled!  Yeah, he's a bit gray and wiry!  Thanks!

Patsy.....as always, thanks for your comment and support!

Gail, it's a LOT of work to go back through my inventory of shots, but at least it's allowing me to pare down all of my lousy shots.  It's also a trip down nostalgia lane!  :-)  Thanks, Gail!

Dimitris......As always, I appreciate you taking the time to comment.  Thanks!
