I really like the B&W conversion on this shot Ellen. The nice contrast between the shadows and highlights fit this photo well, and give it a timeless feel. Nice choice, with a nice finish in the Free Study.

When I look at it the movie "True Grit" pops into my head. :)

the shadows on his face do it for me. Not as sharp as it needs to be though. good angle

I almost had this pegged as a Yo_Spiff shot but another image made me think that this was not quite his style but one of his choice of models. So I̢۪m guessing this is someone close to him and is possibly cowtownmom.

This is a great portrait that is nicely framed. You̢۪ve done well to capture his character and happy emotion. A couple of things I found slightly distracting is that the focus is slightly off for his eyes and the side of his face is a little blown. But this doesn̢۪t take much away from character you have captured. Well done.
