I had to come back to see how this shot finished and whose it was. Very interesting and well composed photo. Your story matches the type of passion that this pic seems to convey about this man. Love the real life moment that you captured...a type of photography that I envy. Very well done.
This automatically made me smile. Beautiful tonal range, and it seems to lead you into a very private, intimate moment with this person. Something very special in this image that just completely comes together... Beautiful. 10
