Thanks everyone. k2 - yes, that's what I was going for was respect, I thought the 4 x 10 ratio did a great job of focusing on his expression, and his proud, noble bearing. Thanks again! ~VPH
Very good and fits the format. Not sure if it strikes me a "king of the jungle" or "involuntary guest in a detention camp" expression, he doesn't look too happy. A wonderful portrait - regardless, and the expression invites respect - no doubts there.

Thanks! You know, I was originally going to title the images "Beauty" and "The Beast" - but ultimately decided against it; I probably should've went with my first instinct!
