    Sid, very nice image. I would like to see him with more room to the right and less behind him so that his face is more centered in the frame. IMHO. Where and when?

    Sid, agree with Grant … really nice subject for the treatment you have given it. Good dof and nice tones.
    I can see where Tom is coming from with his cropping remarks, but I think this works quite well as it is.

    This works really well Sid. A sweet first dip into the monochromatic world.

    Sid,

    Given the fact that your posts normally have outstanding exposures and colours, I am left wondering why you chose this approach here?

    It looks like it was taken a very long time ago.

    Ken,

    Working on few b&W prints for a new game ranch rest house. They want old rustic look and I took some inspiration from Chas's African series.

    Hi Sid,

    Love the look Sid maybe a touch more sepia to really bring that old time rustic feel.
