Helmut
wonderful shot. The qulity of the pic is evident. The contrast and the face of this man contribute to make your pic one you can be proud of.
Congrats

Hello Helmut,
Very good portrait, I really like the use of black and white and the shallow DOF.

Good portrait, maybe slightly pixelised (not too much details on his face)... it's a pity that such a man cannot afford to have some decent shoes...

Great photo!!, Love the way you focused only on your subject. B/w was a great choice, as it highlights the contrast a lot. It also gives the man's eyes a great reflection.
TFS, Jonte
