David,

 

interesting contrast between this guy's surroundings and those of the geologist in a previous post.

 

I hadn't noticed the title until I came to wonder what he did for a living - then the open door and the darkness beyond fell into place. Very good.

Stuart and John - thanks for the comments. Stuart - it may well be a bit heavy, I have a tendency towards heavy prints. I'll probably print out another print tomorrow on my 2200. Stuart - my wife picked up on the dark background before I did. His sugar house is very important to him, especially in his retirement, so it seemed like a natural environment for the shot.

Expression, light and tonal range are exquisite.

No too dark on a calibrated Mac monitor.

Thanks for showing.

 

P.S. did you ever finish that book about black and white classic people/street photos you were working on a few years back (2001).

Regards

Daniel - thanks for the comments. Book still inworks but I found out yesterday that a series of the portraits are going on long term loan for exhibit in one of the Norris Cotton Cancer Treatment Centers here in New England.

 

William - I appreciate the comments. Thanks. It was an enjoyable session with the subject.
