FEARLESS GAZE

and in this case the moment I look at him, he was inviting an image, with an

expression open for many interpretations! To me he was saying take the

picture, what is he saying to you?

Thank you for looking. Rates/comments highly appreciated.

Looks like you blurred the background in post but the edges around the figure look like Christmas tree lights. At first I thought it was kind of cute, but after a couple seconds viewing it doesn't work for me.

He's got a good face for a portrait, Jorge

You'll have to work harder than that to define the outline of the subject; the transition to the blurred background is truly horrible.

Jorge,

  Wonderful portrait with great colors & expression.  Take care, Patsy

Interesting expression Jorge

Only the technical quality isn't as good as always!

 

Cheers

Very Good

Looking beyond possible technical issues, to me the outlining of this gentleman's head and upper body gives the image a surrealistic feel and look.  You may not have had that intention, but then I don't mind serendipity at all.

 

My best,

I see you tried a little tone mapping here. But, it is the man's expression, which shows the connection to the artist and viewer, that makes this image. Nice work.
