Extremely well captured! Well, just noticed his nose is a little bit out of the focal sweet spot, but great details everywhere else. Some stories I'll bet this guy could tell. Good luck in the challenge.

Originally posted by Strikeslip: I went to university in Ottawa, at Carleton (for Earth Science aka Geology). Also took an advanced course at the U. of O. and did some work for a prof there. He almost convinced me to do a masters, but I was tired of the student lifestyle and had to move on. Good times. If you skate, you definitely have to check out the Rideau Canal in late January to the end of February. I used to skate that all the time. Great Zen experience, especially at 3:00am! Photo opps galore. I went on my first date with my wife skating on the canal. She pretended she was a bad skater so she could hold my hand. :-) Oh ya, cool shot. ;-)

Then she said: "OMG SLIPPY IS HOT EKEKEKEKEKEKEKKEEK" (Quote)

All that great detail in his beard and the wrinkles in his face, yet I'm still drawn to his eyes and their understated twinkle. Very nicely done!
