What a step back in time he is (well except maybe the Bic sticking out of his pocket). lol Terrific portrait, and as usually excellent job Jen. Off to my favs he goes.
A truely wonderful potrait shot. This guy could tell a story or two. It`s a great pose too.
A very interesting character.On the few ocasions I have had a chance of an interesting portrait shot, when I`ve asked is it ok I get no and a waving of hands. Fantastic image.Hope my 10/10 helps it`s c/index I love this shot.
I know this is a real person, but the lines in his face and the superb quality of the iamge makes him look like a wax figure out of the museum of history Jennifer! What a grand time you must have had talking to this chap about the wild, wild west...bet he can spin some yarn..lol. I love everything about this and have put it in my favorites folder on my hard drive and into my screen saver slide show folder. Thanks so much for posting this for me to enjoy ;=)
This is just such a prize-winner! The man...he has character..and your capture of him and all the background...this is just so absolutely eye-popping excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
I would guess him to be 65 or 70...Arizona sun can age ya fast...and leave wrinkles only due to the heat...I bet he collects old old non running cars that he sells the pieces from yes? I like the twinkle in his eyes..
Great Shot, at first I thought it was a incredible painting. But what a wonderful photo. You captured something here, spirit, tough worn spirit. I don't know what to say, it's just great. I would say he's 97. Will you let me know if I'm right, do I win any gumballs (haha). Thanx for sharing. LPF
Great shot .. is this some kind of theme town .. old west, etc .. some folks just love to play a part .. Was it difficult to ask that you be allowed a picture .. tourists, some parts are edible
this is one of those character shots that just begs to be Black & White .. but, alas, there are many ways to do that and not all yeild the same results .. maybe help will come along
Very Well Presented for Viewing! I was once a moderator over people photography at another site so I have viewed alot of people photography and this is a good one.
wow.......was in VOTING booth......just now....and saw this. I have had this in my hard drive { screen saver/slide show} so I see this fellow all the time and he is a fave. I had forgotten who did this too....Ms Jeenie....and it gives me great pleasure to tell you I was able to boost it just now with a perfect 10 score.
This was one of the first photo's that attracted me to this site. I saved it in a file and I still like it. Just how old was this guy? Great colors Jen
Yes, one of the best people shots on the site!
His attitude is wonderful. Just a critic about the saturation in the blue, but it gives a very special mood here.
Congrats :-)
