Default Co-worker Rob Sr.

Rob has a great "character" face and since he's convenient I shoot him often. Since we have a younger "Rob" now working at the store he's become Rob Sr. the other is Jr. This was taken with an older Summilux 50/1.4;

That's a piercing portrait, Nealf! Well done.
The elements in this photo is very appealing, IMO.

He just pops out of that background. Great stuff.

Neal -

We have seen him before. Excellent framing, light, color, selective focus and detail.

Neal, very fine work. You have demonstrated why I love this older version on the Lux 50. Color is spectacular, the OOF area divine and the person looks real. Awesome skin tones and a wonderful face. I don't use this lens enough. Thanks for this very fine image.

A lovely mixture of colour, bokeh, composition and pose, topped off by precise focus
