I love this guy. So much attention to detail; the hair, bandana, leather, studs, one cool glove, stubble, shades, smoke ... it's all there! He makes me think of a '57 Chevy street rod; pathetically obsolete, hard to get spare parts, but still turning heads with those authentic period details. I suppose he's a lifelong NYC guy, and that NYC is his entire world? I wonder how he'd deal with being suddenly transported to where I live, which looks like this:
Anyway, it's a great street portrait, Steve. All the usual crap is good: lighting, composition, processing.
But the best thing is what you're best at ... you were right there, you got the shot, and you allowed your subject to participate in it just enough to create effective communication between you, him, and me.
