Are you trying to say that if you don't go to college you'll end up on the street?

I like the way you included some obvious past times of the person you photographed.

He should be careful not to burn is camera strap! Nice image; it conveys the concentration a good artist needs.

Comment by posthumous:
This is a tremendous portrait and unlike some other shots, even some really good shots, this truly benefits from filling the frame. 10

Posthumous Blue Ribbon:



I think what I like best about it is that he doesn't seem like a photographer at all. There's something so casual about how he has thrust the camera to his face. But casual is not the right word. He seems like an amateur in the very best sense. He is only taking a picture because a picture has presented itself. And once he's done, he will casually throw the camera to his nervous sidekick and get back to his card game.
