...and what a story it must be! I absolutely love this shot. You captured his life in these clear wrinkles. YOu could see his expressive eyes even though you shot his profile. What a great job!

this is a great! photo -- something about the moving backround and the crisp precise lines of his face - just make an incredible photo to look at!

Hi Fernando,
Nice portrait. I like the shallow dof. The blur of the background and the soft lines it makes move you right to that man's face. And, his face has so much character it's interesting to look at.
Well done!

I have always loved shots like this Fernando. And you outdid yourself this time. The background lighting and DOF are perfect. And you even managed to get lighting to halo the hair! If only I could get the sun would cooperate with me like it did with you. Congrads, great job.

hi Fernando
a very good b&w portrait.
I like this face of this man.
the marks of time on its skin recall us that it is necessary to live today fully.
this man seems peaceful and happy to smoke quietly.
perhaps it misses a little distance in front of man.
if he looks towards the left side, he looks at his past.
if you had turned the photo one towards the right side he would look at his future.
two symbolic systems.
Congrats
CK.

Good portrait. It looks nice in BW. It's just a bit soft, but still very nice.

Truly great portrait Fernando! The BW is an obvious choice as this man face can bring much more with the life traces more brought out by the bw textures. The compo itself makes it match the mood of passing time here, as it leaves a open space in front of him, like he is admiring the slow flow of time. Good job!! :)

Very rough looking fellow, maybe he's had a hard way to go. Great composition it looks very good in black and white.

La valse du temps façonne les hommes et les femmes de manière distincte selon la situation géographique, la classe sociale et ou la vie qu’ils ont menée …
Leurs sillons sont leurs marques de noblesse.
