I agree. Although Walters version is good, I like the darker feel to the photo. Don't mind the bit of head chop, the chin, i think should be all there.

Re: PESO - Mark in Profile
Hi Frank, I think both your own and Walter's versions are nice. The texture on is chin is awesome. However, his ear doesn't hold much detail. Doesn't match the overall texture in the pic, imo. Dunno what you can do about it, tho. :-( Jostein 2008/4/11 frank theriault [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I'm interested in hearing comments WRT the exposure/rendering.

Re: PESO - Mark in Profile
I like the light and the look. The tight crop adds interest, and the backlight gives it a focal point. Good stuff as usual.

Re: PESO - Mark in Profile
I really like but on my 17 crt that is supposedly calibrated it looks a mite dark and flat. Probably just my taste as I like lots of snap in BW. You really are getting good at these BW shots.

Re: PESO - Mark in Profile
Hi Frank: I like the rendering and close-upness of the shot. I think I agree with everyone's comments about the tight chin crop. The cut-off head does not bother me. I like that look too.

Works extremely well for me Frank - good range of tones from light to dark: a small cavil might be that the focus is on the sunglass frames rather than the subject's profile, but there is good sharpness throughout.
