Black & White a street picture

Saw him sitting outside his house. His expression remained unchanged except his eyes which moved a bit towards me.

Let me know if you like it, will be happy to have your comments and critiques.

You've certainly got this street portrait business cracked, well done.

Really sharp. But i think cropped too much.

I like this one a lot. The smoke framing his face is an added bonus and those eyes! I want to know what he is thinking.

I thoink the crop is fine as it is the eyes that tell the story. Well done. JIM

Wow. That's just superb. Well done!

I like it but I would have to agree about the cropping. It's a bit tight for my tastes and this is coming from someone who really likes to fill the frame. The processing is strong, nice tonality. The K-01 is really good for street photography. I'm glad to see that you're putting it to good use!

Great shot, very intense, almost unreal face.
