This absolutely *reeks* of Ernest Hemingway. If it were in a book of Hemingway portraits, nobody would question it. Marvelous shot.

VERY interesting portrait! Tells an entire story, don't need any more detail in the face! I sense an old sea captian in a cold place, who has been through the ringer... WELL DONE!

I really like this, it's refreshing and different than everything else in here. And I have that same sweater!

The image seems distorted and out of focus, I like the idea, and the obvious shades of grey here but the distortion doesnt help 4
