Strong Man
Lens: pentax 50mm f1.7 Camera: K5 11 
Master Carver Kerry Strongman. Image titled "Strong Man"
Image made at Kerrys studio where he manufactures "Jewelery for Giants", immense Kauri carvings ( http://tribestrongman.com/about/ ) I posed him against a dark stucco concrete panel on a building outside, on a cloudy day and shot at f3.2 on a manual Pentax A 50mm lens (despite what the exif data says, it definitely wasn't a 135mm lens, I don't own one!) Photo has been processed with DCE tools Redynamix and then made mono with Photo Wiz BW Styler 1.05 with a Kallitype toned finish. Kerry was very happy with the final result, as was I!

Kerry looks like one of those kiwi blokes whose chest hair has grown thru his bush singlet great image of a good bloke.
