Note: A textured oil canvas finished was added to bring out Juanito’s better sides.
Meet Seńor Juanito, a local resident of Cancun, Mexico. Juanito lives by the docks, just right off of Beach Street in Cancun. Juanito was painted with a Nikon D300s, using a Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED lens.
Image Solution: focal length @ 70mm / exposure mode @ aperture priority / in camera matrix metering / 1/1000sec. - f/7 / exposure comp @ -0.3EV / ISO @ 1250 / white balance @ auto / AF - Mode @ AF - C / color space @ sRGB / lighting solution – ambient lighting / tone comp @ +1 degree / hue adjustment @ +1 degree / saturation factor @ +2 degrees / support platform – hand held /
Nice shot, this can be a challenging one if sensor is not on eye and DoF is set wrong.
Don't know how those Nikon's can support the high ISO - well done - sweet finish but it might hide some detail - just a tradeoff, that's all.
Composition is spot-on IMO as well.

Hi Gus Not sure what is going on with Senor Juanito :) Normally I do like the post processing texture but this might be an exception Love the pose and framing. Probably this was the best way to cope with harsh light !! btw we don't seem all that often in those perches !!! ... btw neat with that short focal length !!!
