I really like this pic, Walt, not only for the lighting, DOF, and composition, but also for the contrast between the rough, weathered hands and the delicate feather.

My guess is that the aperture is set at f/2 and the ISO would probably be somewhere in the neighborhood of 1600 given the conditions (sitting in a dimly lit bar), not using flash (I'm constitutionally incapable most times), with a fairly slow shutter speed (1/50 or thereabouts). In any event, I'm looking for possible submissions to the PDML annual and wondered if anyone thought this might be a potentially worthy candidate.
