Wonderful, Louis! Isn't the dark of the shadow over his eyes and the dark of his hat too dark?

Lex

Thank you Lex. As you may know; the tropical sun is brutal ; more specially at noon, as I mentioned it intentionally (the sun was above).  Somehow, I do like the contrast and if I wanted to lighten the shot, I would have lost much details in the rest of the picture; more specially the face and hands. The suede  jacket gave me most of the trouble for the conversion.It was beige and very difficult to render  in BW! :)

He remebers me to the book " The Old Man and the Sea" , written by Ernest Hemingway

Well, you are almost right, dear Werner. Cuba is not far from here (about 90 miles from Key West where Hemingway had his home and his cats), and  we are in the same sea area. I only hope my old man is a better fisherman than Hemingway’s old man. ;)
