This was very difficult to shoot congratulations to mffnqueen who done the original. I have just tried to take an image 20 years earlier but had far to much trouble with the overhead projector to get it right so gave up in the end and concentrated on the portrait not the words.

I like how he has the words "MEN" on his forehead. The fact that you can't actually read most of the words does not detract. The eyes are sharp and the focus is on the face, which is as it should be. I like it.
Lacking a little of the original with the quality of the projection, the take was well thought out to include the time zone element. very nice. Bumping up.
Really excellent use of this light, and great detailing in the face. Strong crop. Hasn't quite the wild intensity of the original - though I can see how that might be considered an improvement, I think that shot had more emotion than this. Not to be doing down the sense of calm and a certain solemnity here.
