I wish he wasn't holding the balloon like it was a weapon, but the juxtaposition of the bad burly bike and the balloon is clever and the amount of texture and detail you got here is lovely. top five in my book.

wrong model to go with the balloon. he looks like a rough and tough guy. very little significance with a balloon.

HA - great title. I can see through that guy - he's really a softy. I like this a lot. It's unexpected and a great portrait. Nice tonal range and terrific focus.
