Hello Janice. It was expensive but it's a nice picture. The old man seems to be the one who conducts the cart. The guinness in background helps in understanding what the cart is designed for: transporting beer barrels, I guess. The image however suffers some lack of sharpness and a magenta excessive coloration. Both can be corrected with Photoshop. See workshop.

LOL....indeed expensive. Looking back at it, I think you have broken even with him because of this nice shot. It has an old-time feel. It has a good compo. He has a very commanding presence so I am not surprise he intimidated you with his mere presence.
This is a delightful capture Janice. It evokes an earlier time, motivating me to do a workshop that does the same with the image. Yours is a perfectly fine image, well composed and executed, so mine is simply a playful exercise in Photoshop. See what you think about the alternative.

Regardless of the image quality - this is one of those pictures that just brings back memories. Regards Colin

I can't believe he charged you for it! I won't repeat here what my initial reaction was!! ;)
Nice 'old style image', I would imagine that given the hi-tech operation that is the St. James' Gate brewery that he's not employed by them...he just harasses jet-lagged vsitiors!
I like the colours & detail on the horse.

Hello Janice, I really found your note amusing (but I doubt if you thought so at that moment):)
I like Curtis Grindahl's Workshop as it makes the image look so authentic.
Excellent compo,
TFS!

Hi Janice.
This is a very good shot.
It represents very well Ireland; and It's a magic moment!
It looks like a very old picture.

Hey Janice,
Check this out:

Payed a Euro (or two, don`t remember)
Which only shows that not much changes in Ireland in ten years or so. :D I think that even the poor horse is the same. Anyway, a nice photo - beautiful composed and colored. Some errors because of the scanning, but no matter. This man is a virtual legend. :>
Best regards.

It looks like a very old picture. I think that converting it into monochrome and adding grain could make it look more effective. I like it a lot. Best wishes!
