This guy was so engrossed in his book that I just stood there in front of him and clicked away.

Nice glowy processing. You'd almost think he's fallen asleep given his pose.

I like this whole scene, his pose is priceless. Your convertion to b&w and the dreamy look you have given to it are great!

My eye goes first to his hat.. what a wonderful hat it is.. and your processing brought it out.. my eye then follows down his white shirt to his book - what story holds his interest so? I don't know what your processing is but I love it.. please tell me (others too I imagine) how you do this..I love how his feet are splayed .. he is so comfortable ... his socks are so white .. look at that dappled light on the cobblestone.. I want to sit there.. I want to read there in such complete attention and serenity.

Like the way the softglow further blends him into the dappled light and time of day. Nice balance of light and dark.

The angles, textures and contrast all work nicely together.

Very elegant the way he is sitting! So totally oblivious to you - wonderful. I wish I knew what he is reading, I may want to borrow it. It's been so long since a book gripped me like that.

I'm glad you did...he was really asking for it..

How much money would you spend to watch a movie of someone reading?
