This one really has me smiling, Colin. I'll bet you've used a few different titles over the years, but this one is great.

Frank, your right I think, I've lightened a touch.

Great image Colin! I might try to lighten his face little though...

Didn't you say cheese? Why on earth pig don't smile? :-))
Great portrait.

Agreed, but the characteristic that I like the more is this exact backlighting, providing at the same time enough details of the background and a very nice light. endika

LOL, no I didn't buy the head! In fact I asked him if I could take some pictures in his shop and he said yes and proved to be a really cooperative subject. I shot a whole roll of tri-x on my old Yashica and took him a few 10x8's.

What a character study this is. Truely the eyes of a shop owner - the mouth says happy the eyes they watch - look at the strength in those hands. Did you buy the head?

He has such a kind face but it takes on a new look when you see what he's holding! Alistair
