Photographer’s Note
Well this is my first attempt at a "people" picture! This was taken the other night in Whitby whilst on a ghost walk, this person was giving the walk and talk, hence his old fashioned attire, and I thought he was very photogenic, though as it was taken at night lighting wasnt good and I used the flash. This guy is quite creepy and had some disturbling stories to make you think twice the next time you visit whitby! Especially his stories of Bram Stoker and Dracula! He took on Bram Stoker's role at Whitby and carried it off quite well!
This is the best of my bunch! I think it turned out quite well, PP work included cropping, and framing and also I converted to sepia for the old fashioned effect
I hope you like it, comments and critiques welcome!

Yeah, he's got some weird teeth for sure, LOL! Good idea on the sepia tone.

Hey Steven;
Interesting shot. He does look a bit creepy, sounds like the night would have been a good laugh. I think you're right- he could pass for Bram Stoker- especially if you see m workshop! Hahaha..
Cheers,

Hej Steven,
Good portrait of this man, you captured the expression on his face very well. The sepia works also very nicely here, good work.
