Hello Caleb,
A fine pôrtrait of the man against the background of his shop. He takes his business seriously...
Regards,
Paul

Hi Caleb!
An humoristic comment but the shot lacks a bit the attractive aura I find in your portraits usually. Not that the model is not charismatic. In his way, he is a figure. He does not seem very inviting and serviceable, as a seller is supposed to be. But I find that,despite a good management of the light, there is no punch in the colors and the frank pose excessive. Although, you know how to transform an ordinary scene into something special, and that's true here too. Most of the people, me the first, would have failed to make an attractive shot here... or even missed the possibility to make one, but you did. It is just, to my opinion, not the best of your production.
Regards
Marine

Hello my dear Caleb
What an another great portrait shot. Your world !
Straight angle / aproching, good framework and sharp focusing as usual. His face expression is very impressive and has strong impact.
Congratulation on your masterpiece.
Thanks for sharing and best regards,
Have a Good day !
