a greta portrait..
I love this image.
Your composition is simply fine.. but the way you had him pose in front of your lens is simply excellent.

I agree it's a fine portrait, and very successful framing. I'd like to have seen more texture detail on the skin - I wonder if this softness comes from the longish exposure/close/hand-held?

I imagine Frans has many stoties to tell. The lines on his face show he has lived a good life and he now deserves to relax with a pint of beer :). It makes me thirsty! Great portrait! I love the detail.
cheers, Nichelle
