He really looks surprised, even somewhat overly so. Like he was acting surprised...
Anyway I think the grain and toning fits well to this kind of shots. BTW, what is the artwork about?

You're allowed to smoke in a gallery? or you are not and this is why the man is surprised, like he just got caught and is going to be thrown out! well, regardless of being blurry, his forhead lines come out wonderfully.a good glimpse of the photo on the wall as well.

You are simply the best at portraits. You manage to capture people with such sensitivity, it's scary. Simply amazing.

Sarolta, your last shots from the exhibition are just fantastic, I myself am a big fan of shooting at exhibitions, but to date haven't had a chance of capturing the creator and his art in one image. Do you have a link to the exhibition (or photographers), would love to read more about it.
As for the photos, both of the portraits are very different but both spectacular, in two different ways they show the sould of the artist. I hope you have more images from there, looking forward to seeing them.

Hi Sarolta.
Très drôle cette prise avec ce visage surpris...c'est vraiment bien capturé.
Le cadrage est comme d'habitude très bon et ce n/b teinté et très contrssté me plait beaucoup.
Nice capture.

Hello Sarolta,
What a grimace you caught here!
I also enjoy the wince of this man (i guess he's from Poland, because he's got a typical polish surname) behind,
Nice picture,
Thanks for sharing,

Hello Sarolta. Very expressive faces, but I'm not really fond about the out of focus issue in this one. I wish in any case that his eyes (don't care about the rest) were sharper. Noice toning treatment, as usual, and still a very interesting subject.

Sarolta,
Very different frmo your last post. I like this too very amusing and great wrinkles and expression on the makn character. Again nice to see the artist in the shot. I really like the frame as well almost half framing the two guys.

Beautiful study in men's expression. Love the surprise on his face and his bewilderment at your obstinate shutter

Could this be more than a decisive moment ?
Definitely surprised, no time to pose for a big smile. You caught him to his tru nature.
I like the multiple frames in this scene. Great sepia Sarolta.
Thanks, Al.

Hi Sarolta,

Right place, right time, right eye!
The fact that his face is not 100% sharp really shows that his surprised is real and that he didn't pause.

Really like it.

Thanks
Tony

PS: I'm also surprised that one can smoke in a art gallery!

Hi Sarolta,
This man has an extraordinary expression on his face. I'm just wondering who of the two was more surprised: him or you (when you saw the resulting photo) ?
Nice PP work with the B&W conversion and the added grain.
Have a nice day.

The expression is killer. And dont worry about the blur..It TOTALLY woks great with the nose and the b/w. Simply put, a sharp shot would lose impact.

Hi Sarlota,
What a beautiful photo. You caught the moment perfectly. I LOVE the composition, with the painting balancing the artist.
Best,
Maya

I like this a little bit noisy sepia mood, composition and expression. A little bit distractive is a thing coming from the bottom of the photo (left centre part). Still it is a very good photo.
